Storm‐dominated bottom boundary layer dynamics on the Northern California Continental Shelf: Measurements and predictions
D. A. Cacchione, W.D. Grant, D. E. Drake, S.M. Glenn
None, Journal of Geophysical Research C: Oceans (92) 1817-1827
Measurements of near‐bottom velocity profiles in 85 m water depth during a storm on the continental shelf off northern California using the GEOPROBE tripod in December 1979 provided estimates of shear velocities, , and roughness lengths, , when the near‐bottom velocity profiles were logarithmic. These estimates agree within 90% confidence...

Relations between geological structure and aeromagnetic anomalies in central Nevada
Edwin S. Robinson
None, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 2045-2060
An aeromagnetic survey of a 6000-km2 area in central Nevada has been complied by the U.S. Geological Survey. An interpretation of the aeromagnetic data is developed to establish relations between near-surface geological features and structure extending to intermediate depths in the crust.A three-dimensional distribution of magnetized material is described which would...
Xenoliths in the honolulu volcanic series, Hawaii
E. D. Jackson, T. L. Wright
None, Journal of Petrology (11) 405-433
The Pleistocene to Holocene Honolulu Volcanic Series was erupted from about 37 vents scattered over the older Koolau tholeiite shield. The rocks of this series are compositionally zoned with respect to the shield; near the Koolau caldera the predominant rocks are melilitenepheline basalts, but these give way outward to nepheline...

This is the third in a series of papers on glaucophane schists from the Franciscan Formation near Cazadero, California. Previous papers describe three distinct types of glaucophane-bearing Franciscan metamorphic rocks near Cazadero.The purpose of this study is to investigate the garnets present in metamorphic types III (bedrock schists)...
Effect on evaporation of releases from reservoirs on Salt River, Arizona
G.E. Koberg
None, International Association of Scientific Hydrology - Bulletin (5) 37-44
By means of the energy-budget method, measurements of evaporation losses from four reservoirs on Salt River, Ariz., were determined to range from 57.5 to 69.9 inches for the 12-month period April 1958 to March 1959. Water is withdrawn from Roosevelt Lake at considerable depth and released through three run-of-the-river reservoirs. Because...

Yield of sediment in relation to mean annual precipitation
Walter B. Langbein, S. A. Schumm
None, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (39) 1076-1084
Effective mean annual precipitation is related to sediment yield from drainage basins throughout the climatic regions of the United States. Sediment yield is a maximum at about 10 to 14 inches of precipitation, decreasing sharply on both sides of this maximum in one case owing to a deficiency of runoff...
