In the course of a systematic survey of the ground‐water resources of the Hawaiian Islands which is being made under the direction of H. T. Stearns of the United States Geological Survey in cooperation with the Territorial Government of Hawaii, it was found desirable to test the utility of geophysical...

During 1935 and 1936 the Ground‐Water Division of the United States Geological Survey made an investigation of the ground‐water resources of the El Paso, Texas, Area. Geological and hydrological studies comprised the principal part of the investigation, and these studies were supplemented by measurements of earth‐resistivity made largely by the...

In common with many of the arid and semiarid States, the prosperity of Utah probably is more dependent upon the amount of water available than upon any other natural resource. Although only about four per cent of the State is irrigated, a shortage of water for irrigation becomes a major...

A large body of massive topaz forms a part of the gold‐bearing lode at the Brewer Mine, South Carolina. This gold‐mine was opened 100 years ago and merits the distinction of being one of the early gold‐discoveries of the Southern Appalachian Region. The Brewer Mine is located near Jefferson, in...

In the following list, brief‐statements have been added to certain references to call attention to special phases of ground‐water problems which are not apparent from the titles. Abstracts of most of the papers have been or will be published in the Annotated Bibliography of Economic Geology....

For the last six years the United States Geological Survey, in cooperation with the State Engineer of New Mexico, has been making somewhat intensive studies of ground‐water in the part of the High Plains that lies in New Mexico, and in 1933 and 1934 the Geological Survey, with funas allocated...

Incomplete study of seven amygdales from the Columbia River lava‐flows along Slate Creek, a tributary of Salmon River, near Freedom in north‐central Idaho, reveals that these small objects are of unusual geological and mineralogical interest. This paper includes an outline of the geology of the area from which the amygdales...

The Committee was enlarged during the past year by one more member, Prof. J. E. Church of Reno, Nevada, Chairman of the Committee on Snow, who agreed to serve on it while the Chairman of the Committee on Glaciers in turn accepted membership on the Committee on Snow. Thus the...

Two meanings are unfortunately given to the term geophysics. In the broad sense, based on the etymology of the term, geophysics means the physics of the Earth. This is its significance in the names “Geophysical Laboratory of the Carnegie Institution of Washington,” “International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics,” and “American...

The withdrawal of water from a well necessarily produces a drop in water‐level in the well. The ground‐water level in the vicinity of the well from which the water is withdrawn likewise declines, but the amount of decline decreases with increasing distance from the well, so that a cone of...

In accordance with the by‐laws of the Section, the Committee on Underground Waters has been reconstituted during the past year. With their research interests turning to other subjects, several members have dropped out, and four new men have been appointed. In order to maintain contact with the work of related...

Since the last meeting of the Section of Hydrology there has been a change in the organization and membership of some of the research‐committees, one relating to rainfall, of which Merrill Bernard is Chairman, and one relating to runoff, were created to replace the one committee which had functioned heretofore...

The work described in this paper was all done in connection with dam‐site investigations and was not directly connected with hydrology. However, geophysics is coming to have a place in hydrologic investigations, and these results may throw some light on what can be accomplished by resistivity‐measurements.We have found that,for many...

The modern deep well makes it possible to determine the temperatures of the rocks to depths exceeding two miles, and the rock‐samples obtained at these great depths enable the geologist to estimate the depths to the deeply buried basement‐rocks to a rather high degree of precision. The latter estimates are...

Recent studies have shown that relatively impermeable clay beds are widespread on Long Island but that erosion channels cutting through them permit restricted recharge of the underlying beds in some parts of the island. Of the more than 200,000,000 gallons of water a day now pumped from wells, about 65...
