Determination of Manning's N from vertical‐velocity curves
Walter B. Langbein
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 618-620
Professor M. P. O'Brien [see 1, 2 of “References” at end of paper] has recently shown that data on the vertical distribution of velocity through the theory of turbulent flow as developed by Prandtl, Von Karman, and others may be applied to the determination of friction‐coefficients in open channels. Hydrographers...
Salt‐water intrusion in the Connecticut River
C. S. Howard
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 355-357
The intrusion of salt water in the lower Connecticut River Basin was studied during October 1, 1934, to June 30, 1939. The field‐ and laboratory‐work was done as a project of the Works Progress Administration under the sponsorship of the State Water Commission of the State of Connecticut. Some technical...
The evaluation of magnetic anomalies by means of scales
Irwin Roman
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 319-321
At the 1939 meeting of the Union [Fundamental research in geophysics relating to prospecting, Trans. Amer. Geophys. Union, 1939, pp. 302 and 390], the writer described a set of scales for aiding in the evaluation of the magnetic anomaly due to a selected magnetized body. During the past year, these...

Magnetic studies of the Florida peninsula
F.W. Lee, J.H. Swartz
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 297-301
This investigation was undertaken primarily as a pilot‐experiment for gaining information concerning the field‐technique and accuracy which is needed for covering large areas in detail and at the same time economically. Owing to the complex nature of magnetic observations, such a pilot‐study serves, in addition, as a basis for determining...

Phosphate deposits of the United States
George R. Mansfield
1940, Economic Geology (35) 405-429
Different types of phosphate deposits and different sources of phosphate in the United States are briefly discussed. In Florida two types of phosphate are now mined, land pebble and hard rock. The principal characteristics of these types of rock are stated and methods of prospecting, mining and recovery briefly outlined....
