Asbestos occurrence in the Eagle C-4 quadrangle, Alaska
Helen Laura Foster
1969, Circular 611
An asbestos occurrence was discovered in a remote part of the Eagle quadrangle, Alaska, in the summer of 1968 during geologic reconnaissance in connection with the U.S. Geological Survey's Heavy Metals program. The exposed part of the deposit consists of large joint blocks of serpentine which are cut by closely...
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...
Geology of the Mackay 30-minute quadrangle, Idaho
Willis H. Nelson, Clyde Polhemus Ross
1969, Open-File Report 70-242
The Jefferson Dolomite, Grand View Dolomite, and Three Forks Limestone, all of Devonian age, are the oldest rocks exposed in the quadrangle. Rocks that range from Mississippian to Permian in age are widespread; they are represented by the White Knob Limestone in the eastern part of the quadrangle and the...
Rapid heat-flowing surveying of geothermal areas, utilizing individual snowfalls as calorimeters
Donald E. White
1969, Journal of Geophysical Research (74) 5191-5201
Local differences in rate of heat transfer in vapor and by conduction through the ground in hot spring areas are difficult and time-consuming to measure quantitatively. Individual heavy snowfalls provide a rapid low-cost means of measuring total heat flow from such ground. After a favorable snowfall (heavy, brief duration, little...
Airborne fluorometer applicable to marine and estuarine studies
George E. Stoertz, William R. Hemphill, David A. Markle
1969, Marine Technology Society Journal (3) 11-26
An experimental Fraunhofer line discriminator detected solar-stimulated yellow fluorescence (5890 A) emitted by Rhodamine WT dye in aqueous solutions. Concentration of 1 part per billion was detected in tap water 1/2-meter deep. In extremely turbid San Francisco Bay, dye was monitored in concentrations of less than 5 parts per billion...
Some guidelines for remote sensing in hydrology
Charles J. Robinove, Daniel G. Anderson
1969, Journal of the American Water Resources Association (5) 10-19
Remote sensing in the field of hydrology is beginning to be applied to significant problems, such as thermal pollution, in many programs of the Federal and State Governments as well as in operation of many private organizations. The purpose of this paper is to guide the hydrologist to a better...
Structural geologic interpretations from radar imagery
Robert G. Reeves
1969, Geological Society of America Bulletin (80) 2159-2164
Certain structural geologic features may be more readily recognized on sidelooking airborne radar (SLAR) images than on conventional aerial photographs, other remote sensor imagery, or by ground observations. SLAR systems look obliquely to one or both sides and their images resemble aerial photographs taken at low sun angle with the...
Surveying the earth's resources from space
William T. Pecora
1969, TRW Space Log (9) 2-15
During the past 4 years, scientists of the Geological Survey, in cooperation with NASA, have been investigating the feasibility and practicality of using remote-sensor data collected during conventional aircraft flights. This work is aimed at developing techniques for gathering facts about the earth's natural resources from satellites carrying sophisticated remote-sensing...
