Fish kill from underwater explosions
The U.S. Geological Survey has used 23 different shotpoints during two seasons of field work in our seismic study of crustal structure in western United States. Without exception, it has been found that under-water shotpoints result in a more efficient conversion of explosive energy into seismic energy than do drilled-hole shotpoints. This experience, together with elimination of drilling costs, h

Landslide conditions along the Ferry County highway parallelling Lake Roosevelt from Kettle Falls to the mouth of the Spokane River, Washington
As part of the program of the U.S. Geological Survey, landslides are being studied in several localities in the United States. These studies are directed toward assembling criteria for recognition of landslides, classification, and cataloging of remedial or control methods that have been effective. In the gorge of the Columbia Ricer in Washington, landslides of large magnitude have been active in

The landslide of Sainte-Adresse cliff
The Sainte-Adresse Cliff in the neighborhood of Le Havre was subject in the past to repeated movements of greater of lesser scope which in 1944 have become markedly accentuated because of works on the "Atlantic Wall" and bomb and mine explosions.
The situation became dangerous and required a complete study including geological and geotechnical surveys with borings and search of slip planes.
