Floods of November-December 1950 in the Central Valley basin, California
C. G. Paulsen
1953, Water Supply Paper 1137-F
The flood of November-December 1950 in the Central Valley basin was the greatest in most parts of the basin since the turn of the century and probably was exceeded in the lower San Joaquin River basin only by the historic flood of 1862. In respect to monetary loss, the 1950...
Coal resources of the United States (a progress report, October 1, 1953)
Paul Averitt, Louise R. Berryhill, Dorothy A. Taylor
1953, Circular 293
As estimated in this second progress report, the coal reserves of the United States remaining in the ground on January 1, 1953, total 1,899,739 million tons. This figure is about a 20 percent reduction of the total estimate published in the first progress report (Averitt and Berryhill, 1950). The new...
Preliminary report of the Centennial Range, Montana-Idaho
Frederick Sauli Honkala
1953, Open-File Report 53-123
Phosphate rock is present in the Phosphoria formation of Permian age in the Centennial Range of southwestern Montana and adjoining parts of Idaho. A Study was made to map the Phosphoria formation, study its stratigraphy, and to ascertain the reserves and mining problems. In the Centennial Range the Phosphoria formation...
Marine geology of the Near Islands Shelf, Alaska
Philip Challacombe Scruton
1953, Open-File Report 53-245
During the summer of 1950 on the insular shelf surrounding the Near Islands, Alaska, 193 oceanographic stations were occupied from aboard the U. S. Geological Survey vessel EIDER. Bottom character and temperature observations were made at these stations. The composition and size distribution characteristics of the bottom samples have been...
Clay deposits of the Tierra Colorado district, southern Orange County, California
Steven Norman Daviess, M. N. Bramlette
1953, Open-File Report 53-51
The clay of this district is being mined for fire brick by the Vitrofrax Corporation. Much of the clay contains 35 percent or more of alumina and between 1 and 2 percent of iron oxide. Production is largely from an underground mine as the best clay deposit known in the...
The Alberhill and other clay deposits of Temescal Canyon, Riverside County, California
Steven Norman Daviess, M. N. Bramlette
1953, Open-File Report 53-52
Clay is mined in open pits by several companies in the Alberhill district, and the refractory clays of relatively high alumina sediment are used largely for fire brick. The Alberhill Coal and Clay Company is the largest operator and has produced a little over 2,000,000 tons of clay, of which...
The hydraulic geometry of stream channels and some physiographic implications
Luna Bergere Leopold, Thomas Maddock Jr.
1953, Professional Paper 252
Some hydraulic characteristics of stream channels - depth, width, velocity, and suspended load - are measured quantitatively and vary with discharge as simple power functions at a given river cross section. Similar variations in relation to discharge exist among the cross sections along the length of a river under the...
