Sections showing biostratigraphy and correlation of Tertiary rocks penetrated in wells drilled on the southern Oregon continental margin

Geologic interpretation of seismic reflection profiles on the Continental Shelves of Oregon and Washington is measurably enhanced through the knowledge of Tertiary subsurface stratigraphy penetrated in 10 deep exploration wells drilled in the mid-1960's (Braislin and others, 1971; Snavely and others, 1977). These subsurface data make it possible to relate to the acoustic units differentiated on se

Seismic reflection study of Flathead Lake, Montana

A seismic reflection survey of Flathead Lake, Montana, was carried out in 1970 to study the geologic structure underlying the lake. Approximately 200 km of track lines were surveyed resulting in about 140 km of useable data (Fig. 1). A one cu. in. air gun was used as the energy source. Navigation was by a series of theodolite sitings of the boat from pairs of shore-based control points. 

Seismicity map of the state of Texas

The data shown on this map and listed in table 1 are for earthquakes that were originally included in a study of seismic risk in the United States (Algermissen, 1969). This data file has been recompiled and updated through 1981. Some revisions of epicenters and intensities in the original file have been made, and intensities have been assigned to earthquakes that previously had none assigned. Only
