Recent activity of glaciers of Mount Rainier, Washington
Robert S. Sigafoos, E. L. Hendricks
1972, Professional Paper 387-B
Knowing the ages of trees growing on recent moraines at Mount Rainier, Wash., permits the moraines to be dated. Moraines which are ridges of boulders, gravel, sand, and dust deposited at the margins of a glacier, mark former limits of a receding glacier. Knowing past glacial activity aids our understanding...
Geological Survey research 1972
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1972, Professional Paper 800-D
This collection of 30 short papers is the third published chapter of "Geological Survey Research 1972." The papers report on scientific and economic results of current work by members of the Geologic and Water Resources Divisions of the U.S. Geological Survey.Chapter A, to be published later in the year, will...
Progress report: Apollo 16 sample documentation
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1972, Open-File Report 72-397
This report is intended as a working document for use during the opening of the Apollo 16 sample containers and during the early phases of examination of the samples in the Lunar Receiving Laboratory (LRL). The information in this report was drawn from voice transcripts of the astronaut crew while...
Reconnaissance geology of the Precambrian rocks in the Ayn Qunay quadrangle, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
William C. Overstreet, Jesse William Whitlow, Abdullah O. Ankary
1972, Open-File Report 72-281
The Aya Qunay quadrangle covers an area of 2833 sq km in central Saudi Arabia, Only the western edge of the quadrangle is underlain by Precambrian rocks, which were the subject of this investigation. Toward the east the Precambrian rocks are unconformably overlain by Permian and younger sedimentary rocks. The...
Documentation and environment of the Apollo 16 samples a preliminary report
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1972, Open-File Report 72-395
This catalog is a working document that shows the locations from which samples were collected during the Apollo 16 mission, and that provides a descriptive geologic context for each sample. It is a compilation of notes from work in progress, and supersedes an earlier report prepared by the Apollo Lunar...
Sedimentation of Williams Reservoir, Santa Clara County, California
John R. Ritter, William M. Brown III
1972, Open-File Report 72-315
Fifty-two acre-feet of sediment was ·deposited in Williams Reservoir between 1913 and 1971. From calculations of the sediment yields in other nearby drainage basins in Santa Clara County, it was determined that 24 to 38 acre-feet of sediment would have been transported to Williams Reservoir between 1961 and 1971 under...
Earthquakes in the oil field at Rangely, Colorado
James F. Gibbs, John H. Healy, C. Barry Raleigh, John M. Coakley
1972, Open-File Report 72-130
Seven years of seismic data recorded at the Uinta Basin Observatory were searched for earthquakes originating near an oil field at Rangely, Colorado, located 65 km ESE of the observatory. Changes in the number of earthquakes recorded per year appear to correlate with changes in the quantity of fluid injected...
Water resources data for West Virginia, water year 1971; Part 1. Surface water records; Part 2. Water quality records
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1972, Water Data Report WV-71-1
Water resources data for the 1971 water year for West Virginia including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, and records of water-quality data on the chemical and physical characteristics of surface water, are given in this report. In Part 1, records are...
Radiochemical analyses of surface water from U.S. Geological Survey hydrologic bench-mark stations
V.J. Janzer, L.G. Saindon
1972, Open-File Report 72-191
The U.S. Geological Survey's program for collecting and analyzing surface-water samples for radiochemical constituents at hydrologic bench-mark stations is described. Analytical methods used during the study are described briefly and data obtained from 55 of the network stations in the United States during the period from 1967 to 1971 are...
Stream depletion factors, Arkansas River valley, southeastern Colorado; A basis for evaluating plans for conjunctive use of ground and surface water
C.T. Jenkins, O.J. Taylor
1972, Open-File Report 72-192
The Arkansas River valley is a stream-aquifer system that consists of the Arkansas River and the associated valley-fill deposits. The hydrology, geology, and water-resources development in the valley have been described by Moore and Wood (1967). The history of delivery of irrigation water by canals indicates that the supply has...
