Altithermal timberline advance in Western United States
Valmore C. LaMarche Jr., H. A. Mooney
1967, Nature (213) 980-982
A combination of radiocarbon dating and counting of annual rings of the remains of trees has been used to establish the time of retreat of forests from sub-alpine mountains in California and Nevada. The information obtained can serve as a palaeoclimatic indicator....

Geomagnetic polarity epochs: new data from Olduvai Gorge, Tanganyika
C. S. Grommé, R. L. Hay
1967, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (2) 111-115
The lower lava flow of Bed I in Olduvai Gorge, Tanganyika, carries natural remanent magnetization (NRM) having normal polarity. Thermal demagnetization experiments demonstrate the stability of this NRM. Thus the Olduvai geomagnetic polarity event, which was originally named from the upper lava...
Cohenite: Its occurrence and a proposed origin
R. Brett
1967, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (31) 143-159
Cohenite is found almost exclusively in meteorites containing from 6 to 8 wt.% Ni. On the basis of phase diagrams and kinetic data it is proposed that cohenite cannot form in meteorites having more than 8 wt.% Ni and that any cohenite which formed in meteorites having Ni content lower...

Loss of halogens from crystallized and glassy silicic volcanic rocks
D. C. Noble, V. C. Smith, L. C. Peck
1967, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (31) 215-223
One hundred and sixty-four F and Cl analyses of silicic welded tuffs and lavas and glass separates are presented. Comparison of the F and Cl contents of crystallized rocks with those of nonhydrated glass and hydrated glassy rocks from the same rock units shows that most of the halogens originally...
Complexometric determination of gallium with calcein blue as indicator
H.N. Elsheimer
1967, Talanta (14) 97-102
A metalfluorechromic indicator, Calcein Blue, has been used for the back-titration of milligram amounts of EDTA in presence of gallium complexes. The indicator was used in conjunction with an ultraviolet titration assembly equipped with a cadmium sulphide detector cell and a microammeter for enhanced end-point detection....
An operational theory of laser-radar selenodesy
R.L. Wildey, R.E. Schlier, J. A. Hull, G. Larson
1967, Icarus (6) 315-347
A theory of the utilization of laser techniques for ranging from the Earth to the Moon for the purpose of providing control points on the lunar surface at which the figure of the Moon is measured to an accuracy at least an order of magnitude better than that of...
Distribution of Lunar craters according to morphology from Ranger VIII and IX photographs
N.J. Trask
1967, Icarus (6) 270-276
A classification of the craters photographed by the Ranger VIII and IX missions into four categories according to relative sharpness shows that at diameters of 100 meters, the predominant craters have broad rims and low depth-diameter ratios and are partly covered with smaller craters which generally have sharper rims and...
Base surge in recent volcanic eruptions
J.G. Moore
1967, Bulletin Volcanologique (30) 337-363
A base surge, first identified at the Bikini thermonuclear undersea explosion, is a ring-shaped basal cloud that sweeps outward as a density flow from the base of a vertical explosion column. Base surges are also common in shallow underground test explosions and are formed by expanding gases which first vent...

Potassium-argon ages of recent rhyolites of the Mono and Inyo craters, California
G. Brent Dalrymple
1967, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (3) 289-298
Twenty-two KAr ages were determined for sanidine samples from 10 rhyolite domes of the Mono and Inyo Craters to test the applicability of KAr dating to volcanic rocks of Recent age. Comparison of the results with ‘blank’ and dosed analyses shows...
The occurrence and origin of lamellar troilite in iron meteorites
R. Brett, E.P. Henderson
1967, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (31) 721-730
A number of iron meteorites contain elongated inclusions consisting predominantly of troilite, which have been termed Reichenbach lamellae. Two types of inclusions exist, the first up to 6 cm long and 0·2 mm wide, the second up to 2 cm long and 3 mm wide. The first type contains troilite...
The Amazon, measuring a mighty river
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1967, Report
The Amazon, the world's largest river, discharges enough water into the sea each day to provide fresh water to the City of New York for over 9 years. Its flow accounts for about 15 percent of all the fresh water discharged into the oceans by all the rivers of the...

Yakima basalt of the Tieton River area, south-central Washington
Donald A. Swanson

Up to 1700 feet of the upper Miocene-lower Pliocene Yakima Basalt of the Columbia River Group underlie much of the eastern flank of the Cascade Range in the Tieton River area, Yakima County, Washington. Local prebasalt relief was more than 1700 feet, so thicknesses of each of the 15...
A seventeenth century mandibular tumor in a North American Indian
E.E. Kelln, E.V. McMichael, B. Zimmermann
1967, Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology (23) 78-81
The oldest tumor so far recorded is believed to have been a hemangioma. It occurred in a bone of a dinosaur’s tail1 and thus considerably antedates the historical period. The oldest known human tumor is much younger, dating back only to the middle of the third century after Christ.1 It...
