Norfolk and environs: A land use perspective
The Norfolk-Portsmouth Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) in southeastern Virginia was the site of intensive testing of a number of land resources assessment methods, built around the availability of remotely sensed data from the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-I), later renamed LANDSAT I. The Norfolk tests were part of a larger experiment known as the Central Atlantic Region

Interpretation of aeromagnetic anomalies bearing on the origin of upper Chesapeake Bay and river course changes in the Central Atlantic Seaboard Region: Speculations
On an aeromagnetic map of the Chesapeake Bay area, the northeastern part of the bay coincides well with a deep, “flat” magnetic low, and the upper part of the Delmarva Peninsula east of the bay coincides with detailed magnetic highs; the two areas are separated by a steep, straight gradient that matches the eastern shore of the bay. On the basis of magnetic and geologic evidence, we interpret the

Floods of August and September 1971 in Maryland and Delaware
Intense rainfall, resulting mostly from severe thunderstorms in August and September 1971 caused considerable flooding throughout much of Maryland and Delaware. Precipitation totals of 5.47 inches in 3 hours and 12.6 inches in 12 hours were reported for the most severe storm of the period which occurred on Aug. 1-2, and was centered in southeast Baltimore County, Md.
Total storm damage for the 2 m

Glauconites from New Jersey-Maryland coastal plain: Their K-Ar ages and application in stratigraphic studies
Glauconite samples from various stratigraphic levels in the northern Atlantic Coastal Plain were dated by the K-Ar method. Twenty-eight samples were collected from glauconite-bearing sands in four traverses across the outcrop belt of Upper Cretaceous–lower Tertiary formations from northern New Jersey to eastern Maryland, thus providing a framework on which to test the reliability of glauconite for

Aeromagnetic discovery of a Baltimore Gneiss dome in the Piedmont of northwestern Delaware and southeastern Pennsylvania
In the central Appalachian Piedmont the “basement complex” is an assemblage of 1,100- to 1,300-m.y.-old gneisses, migmatites, and amphibolites that crops out in “domes” mantled by younger meta-sedimentary rocks of the Glenarm Series. Aeromagnetic data and reconnaissance field work indicate that a previously unknown Baltimore Gneiss dome, here called the Mill Creek dome, is present in southeastern
