Geology of San Antonio Canyon, California, in relation to ground-water storage
P. Eldon Dennis
1947, Open-File Report 47-33
At least two periods of relative stability in the history of the erosion of San Antonio Canyon are indicated by the bench-like features produced by the laterally cutting stream and by the remnants of older alluvium left by the stream when it was cutting at these higher levels. In addition,...
Reconnaissance report on geology of Eklutna Lake dam site and conduit route near Anchorage, Alaska
A. F. Bateman Jr.
1947, Open-File Report 48-13
Summary and Recommendations 1. Eklutna Lake and Eklutna Creek lie in a wide, deep, glaciated, trough-like valley. Downstream from the lake, this valley is partially filled with unconsolidated glacial and alluvial deposits. 2. Eklutna Lake dam site, located about 400 feet below the lake outlet, is suitable for a low...

Outline of geophysical investigations on the great earthquake in the south-west Japan on Dec. 21, 1946
Takeshi Nagata
1947, Pacific Geological Surveys 508
In in the early morning of Dec. 21, 1946, a great destructive earthquake occurred in southern-western Japan. According to the seismogram obtained in our university, the earthquake motion began at Tokyo from 4 h 20 m 10.4 s on Dec. 21, 1946. The maximum amplitude of NS, EW, and up-down...
Distribution, abundance, and spawning season and grounds of the kiyi, Leucichthys kiyi Koelz, in Lake Michigan
Ralph Hile, Hilary J. Deason
1947, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (74) 143-165
From May to November, inclusive, the kiyis of southern Lake Michigan (north to and including localities off Kewaunee, Wisconsin, and Frankfort, Michigan) characteristically inhabit depths of more than 50 fathoms, although small numbers commonly are taken in shallower water (as shallow as 20 29 fathoms). There is evidence that the...

Mortality of smelt, Osmerus mordax (Mitchill), in Lakes Huron and Michigan during the fall and winter of 1942-1943
John Van Oosten
1947, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (74) 310-337
The mortality that nearly exterminated the huge stocks of smelt in Lakes Huron and Michigan during the fall and winter of 1942–1943 appears to have originated in central Lake Huron in the Saginaw Bay area in late September or early October 1942. The mortality spread rapidly northward reaching the Drummond...

Age and growth of the kiyi, Leucichthys kiyi Koelz, in Lake Michigan
Hilary J. Deason, Ralph Hile
1947, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (74) 88-142
Ages were determined and individual growth histories were calculated from the examination and measurement of the scales of 1,649 kiyis captured at seven localities in Lake Michigan in 1931 and 1932. The numbers of individuals employed for the investigation of other phases of the life history (such as length-frequency distributions,...
The sensitized luminescence of manganese-activated calcite
J.H. Schulman, L.W. Evans, R.J. Ginther, K. J. Murata
1947, Journal of Applied Physics (18) 732-739
Synthetic manganese-activated calcites are shown to be practically inert to ultraviolet excitation in the range 2000-3500A, while they are luminescent under cathode-ray excitation. The incorporation of small amounts of an auxiliary impurity along with the manganese produces the strong response to ultraviolet radiation hitherto ascribed to CaCO3:Mn itself. Three such...

Lower Middle Ordovician stratigraphy of the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia
B.N. Cooper, G.A. Cooper
1946, Geological Society of America Bulletin (57) 35-113
In classifying the lower Middle Ordovician of the Shenandoah Valley, the formation names Stones River, Mosheim, Lenoir, Holston, Whitesburg, and Athens have been used without adequate evidence. Detailed study shows that the so-called Athens and Whitesburg, as developed near Harrisonburg, are laterally continuous with the greater part of the Chambersburg...

1946, Utah State Engineer Biennial Report 25
Ground-water investigations in Utah by the Geological Survey of the U.S. Department of the Interior have been in progress since 1935, in cooperation with the Utah State Engineer. This cooperative work includes (1) determination of the fluctuations of water level in most of the developed ground-water areas in the state,...
Ground water in Pavant Valley
P. E. Dennis, G. B. Maxey, H. E. Thomas
1946, Technical Publication 3
The users of wells for irrigation in Pavant Valley, particularly in the Flowell district, have long been cognizant of their utter dependency upon ground water for livelihood, and were among the first in the State to make an organized effort to conserve supplies by prevention of waste. Since passage of...
