Variations in low-water streambed elevations at selected stream-gaging stations in northwestern California
John J. Hickey
1969, Water Supply Paper 1879-E
Graphs and a table are presented showing the variations in streambed elevations that have occurred over the years in the low-water channels at selected gaging stations in northwestern California. The streambed elevations are calculated from data obtained during discharge measurements. The greatest elevation changes that were recorded occurred between the...
Erosion and deposition on a beach raised by the 1964 earthquake Montague Island, Alaska
M. J. Kirkby, Anne V. Kirkby
1969, Professional Paper 543-H
During the 1964 Alaska earthquake, tectonic deformation uplifted the southern end of Montague Island as much as 33 feet or more. The uplifted shoreline is rapidly being modified by subaerial and marine processes. The new raised beach is formed in bedrock, sand, gravel, and deltaic bay-head deposits, and the effect...
Sedimentary rocks of the coast of Liberia
Richard William White
1969, Open-File Report 69-318
Two basins containing sedimentary rocks o# probable Cretaceous age have been recognized near the coast of Liberia in the area between Monrovia and Buchanan; geophysical evidence suggests that similar though larger basins exist on the adjacent continental shelf. The oldest sedimentary unit recognized, the Paynesville Sandstone of possible early to...
Availability of ground water for large-scale use in the Malad Valley-Bear River areas of southeastern Idaho: an initial assessment
W.L. Burnham, A.H. Harder, N. P. Dion
1969, Open-File Report 69-28
Five areas within the Bear River drainage of southeastern Idaho offer potential for further development of ground water--the valley north of Bear Lake, north of Soda Springs, Gem Valley, Cache Valley in Idaho, and Malad Valley in Idaho. Saturated deposits north of Bear Lake are too fine-textured to yield large...
Summary of geologic effects of the Boxcar event, Nevada Test Site
Dayton Delbert Dickey, F. A. McKeown, William L. Ellis
1969, Open-File Report 69-74
A high-yield underground nuclear explosion at the U20i site, formed a sink 1,000 feet in diameter above the explosion point. Fractures opened as far as 20,000 feet from the explosion and rock-falls occurred as far as 15 miles. Most fractures were coincidental with north-trending naturally occurring faults. Maximum displacement along...
Atlantic continental shelf and slope of the United States - Color of marine sediments
D.J. Stanley
1969, Professional Paper 529-D
A systematic examination of the regional color distribution of the upper sediment layer on the Atlantic continental margin between Nova Scotia and southern Florida reveals that brown, dark green, and yellow predominate on the shelf north of Cape Hatteras, whereas olive, gray, and yellow predominate to the south. Color is...
