Geology and ground water resources of Kidder County, North Dakota
Jon L. Rau, Wallace E. Bakken, James Chmelik, Barrett J. Williams, P.G. Randich, L. R. Petri, D. G. Adolphson, Edward Bradley
1963, Bulletin 36
Kidder County was covered with glacial ice at least three times during the Wisconsin Stage of the Pleistocene, but the entire sequence of drifts has not been observed in one exposure. The drift which covers the area was deposited during three ice advances termed the Long Lake, Burnstad and Streeter...
Floods of January-February 1963 in California and Nevada
S. E. Rantz, E. E. Harris
1963, Report
Widespread flooding occurred in central California and northwestern Nevada during January 31 - February 1, 1963, as a result of intense precipitation of about 72 hours duration. The flood-producing storm was of the warm type, with precipitation falling as rain at altitudes as high as 8,000 feet. The heavy precipitation,...
Use of hydrologic models in the analysis of flood runoff
John Shen
1963, Report
The analog technique is applied to the analysis of flood runoff. A quasi-linear analog model has been developed for simulating the runoff-producing characteristics of a drainage system. Where storage is linear a unique relationship correlating the inflow and outflow peaks is derived. The technique for synthesizing flood-frequency distribution is also...
Traveltimes and amplitudes from nuclear explosions; Nevada Test Site to Ordway, Colorado
Alan Ryall, David J. Stuart
1963, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 10
This paper treats the results of a study of seismic waves generated by eight nuclear explosions and recorded at 31 locations between the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and Ordway, Colorado. The line of recording stations crosses the eastern part of the Basin and Range Province, the Colorado Plateau, the southern...
Crustal structure in the western United States; study of seismic propagation paths and regional traveltimes in the California-Nevada region
J.C. Roller, W. H. Jackson, J.F. Cooper, B.A. Martina
1963, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 9
The U.S. Geological Survey, with the assistance of United ElectroDynamics, Inc., completed ten weeks of seismic-refraction field work during the summer of 1962 in the southwestern part of the United States. This work was a continuation of a program initiated in 1961 to study traveltimes and seismic propagation paths in...
Structure of the crust and upper mantle in the western United States
L. C. Pakiser
1963, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 8
Seismic waves generated by underground nuclear and chemical explosions have been recorded in a network of nearly 2,000 stations in the western conterminous United States as a part of the VELA UNIFORM program. The network extends from eastern Colorado to the California coastline and from central Idaho to the border...
Seismic-refraction measurements of crustal structure between Santa Monica Bay and Lake Mead
John C. Roller, John H. Healy
1963, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 7
A reversed seismic-refraction profile was recorded between Santa Monica Bay, California, and Lake Mead, Nevada, during November 1961. Depth to the Mohorovicic discontinuity was determined to be approximately 29 km at Santa Monica Bay, 36 km under the Transverse Ranges, 26 km under the Mojave Desert, and 30 km at...
Preliminary report on seismic-reflection studies of crustal structure in the western, central, and southern United States
J.C. Roller, O.P. Strozier, W. H. Jackson, J. H. Healy
1963, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 14
During 1963 the U.S. Geological Survey, with the assistance of United ElectroDynamics, Inc., recorded five separate reversed seismic profiles. In addition to these profiles, the U.S. Geological Survey participated in a seismic-calibration program for the DRIBBLE experiment at Tatum Dome, Mississippi, a 20,000-pound shot near Dexter, Missouri, and in a...
A progress report on seismic model studies
J. H. Healy, G. B. Mangan
1963, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 15
The value of seismic-model studies as an aid to understanding wave propagation in the Earth's crust was recognized by early investigators (Tatel and Tuve, 1955). Preliminary model results were very promising, but progress in model seismology has been restricted by two problems: (1) difficulties in the development of models with...
Surface water records of New Mexico, water year 1963
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1963, Water Data Report NM-63
The surface-water records for the 1963 water year for gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites within the State of New Mexico are given in this report. For convenience there are also included. records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States. The records were collected and computed by...
