Estimates of the mechanical properties of lunar surface using tracks and secondary impact craters produced by blocks and boulders
H. J. Moore
1970, Open-File Report 70-229
Estimates of bearing capacities of lunar surfaces using tracks and secondary impact craters produced by blocks and boulders shown in photographs taken by Lunar Orbiters II and III are the same order of magnitude as those reported by the Surveyor project, but they are generally less. Static analyses of 48 lunar...

Satellite observation of effusive volcanism
R.S. Williams Jr., J. D. Friedman
1970, British Interplanetary Society Journal (23) 441-450
Infrared emission from an active effusive volcanic eruption on Surtsey, Vestmannaeyjar, Iceland, was recorded by airborne and satellite infrared systems at irregular intervals between 19 August and 3 October 1966. Ground and lava temperature measurements and volumetric lava outflow data permitted a comparison to be made between total thermal-energy yield...
Perception via satellite
Charles J. Robinove
1970, Water Spectrum (2) 14-19
The earth resources observation satellite (EROS) program in the Department of the Interior is intended to gather and use data from satellites and aircraft on natural and man-made features of the earth's surface. Earth resources technology satellite will provide the EROS program with data for use in dealing with natural...
Color infrared film as a negative material
Robert W. Pease
1970, Remote Sensing of Environment (1) 195-198
Original problems encountered in endeavors to use color infraredfilm as a negative material have been overcome by a simple modification in processing. This makes more feasible the production of infrared color prints for field use and yields an infrared counterpart to Aero-Neg....
Using radar imagery for crop discrimination: a statistical and conditional probability study
R. M. Haralick, F. Caspall, D.S. Simonett
1970, Remote Sensing of Environment (1) 131-142
A number of the constraints with which remote sensing must contend in crop studies are outlined. They include sensor, identification accuracy, and congruencing constraints; the nature of the answers demanded of the sensor system; and the complex temporal variances of crops in large areas. Attention is then focused on several...
The airborne infrared scanner as a geophysical research tool
Jules D. Friedman
1970, Optical Spectra (4) 35-44
The infrared scanner is proving to be an effective anomaly-mapping tool, albeit one which depicts surface emission directly and heat mass transfer from depths only indirectly and at a threshold level 50 to 100 times the normal conductive heat flow of the earth. Moreover, successive terrain observations are affected by...

Photographic systems for Apollo
Frederick J. Doyle
1970, Photogrammetric Engineering (36) 1039-1044
The primary objective of the Apollo Lunar Program is to provide data for landing sites. The primary objective of Skylab is to demonstrate the ability of men to operate in space for extended periods of time. As a consequence, neither the missions nor the cameras in either program are optimum...
Surveying the earth from 20,000 miles
A. P. Colvocoresses
1970, Image Technology (12) 13-18
Current space programs aimed at monitoring the earth's resources concentrate on the lower orbital altitudes of 100 to 500 nautical miles. An earth synchronous (geo-stationary) orbit is 19,400 n. mi. above the earth. A powerful telephoto camera at such a location can monitor and record many time-variant phenomena far more...
ERTS-A satellite imagery
Alden P. Colvocoresses
1970, Photogrammetric Engineering (36) 555-561
The first satellite designed to survey the Earth's resources is scheduled to be launched in 1972. This satellite, known as ERTS-A, will telemeter frames of imagery each covering 100-nautical-mile squares of the Earth. Except for the internal anomalies in the sensor system, the imagery, after being properly scaled, rectified, and...
A graphic presentation of stream gain or loss as an aid in understanding streamflow characteristics
Neil C. Koch
1970, Water Resources Research (6) 239-245
A graphic presentation of cumulative monthly stream gain or loss on a given stream reach is used as a tool to show whether the stream gain or loss is apparent or real, and to determine the magnitude, time, and cause of the gain or loss. The graphic method could also...
Interstitial water studies on small core samples, Deep Sea Drilling Project, Leg 5
F.T. Manheim, K.M. Chan, F.L. Sayles
1970, Initial reports of the Deep Sea Drilling Project (5) 501-511
Leg 5 samples fall into two categories with respect to interstitial water composition: 1) rapidly deposited terrigenous or appreciably terrigenous deposits, such as in Hole 35 (western Escanaba trough, off Cape Mendocino, California); and, 2) slowly deposited pelagic clays and biogenic muds and oozes. Interstitial waters in the former show...
North American Devonian conodont biostratigraphy
G Klapper , Charles Sandberg, C Collinson, J. W. Huddle, R.W. Orr, L.V. Richard, D Schumacher, G Seddon, T.T. Uyeno
1970, GSA Memoirs (127) 285-316
The Lower Devonian of Nevada provides a reference sequence of nine conodont faunas, five of which are also at Royal Creek, Yukon Territory. The first appearance of Icriodus woschmidti is comparable to that in the lower Gedinnian in Europe; the Polygnathus dehiscens- P. foveolatus lineage correlates with the Emsian. Directly...
Volcanic history of the San Juan Mountains, Colorado, as indicated by potassium-argon dating
Peter W. Lipman, Thomas A. Steven, Harald H. Mehnert
1970, GSA Bulletin (81) 2329-2352
Volcanic rocks in the San Juan Mountains constitute the largest erosional remnant of a once nearly continuous volcanic field that extended over much of the southern Rocky Mountains and adjacent areas in Oligocene and later time. Recent regional studies have shown that the gross petrologic evolution throughout the San Juan...
Interstitial water studies on small core samples, leg 4
F.L. Sayles, Frank T. Manheim, K.M. Chan
1970, Initial reports of the Deep Sea Drilling Project (4) 401-414
Reorganization and recodification of shipboard procedures for collecting interstitial waters has resulted in improved and more regular collection and analysis of pore fluids. Comparative studies of waters squeezed and analyzed on shipboard and analyzed in the shore laboratory show generally good agreement, except for some aberrations whose sources are hard...
Correlation of aeromagnetics and aeroradioactivity with lithology in the Spotsylvania area, Virginia
S.K. Neuschel
1970, Geological Society of America Bulletin (81) 3575-3582
The U.S. Geological Survey made a detailed aeromagnetic and aeroradioactivity survey of 1050 sq mi of the Spotsylvania area in the Piedmont province of eastern Virginia. The study area consists of sixteen 7 1/2-minute quadrangles in Spotsylvania and adjoining counties, Virginia. East-west traverses were flown at a spacing of 1/2...
