Landslides from the February 4, 1976, Guatemala earthquake Landslides from the February 4, 1976, Guatemala earthquake

The M (Richter magnitude) = 7.5 Guatemala earthquake of February 4, 1976, generated more than 10,000 landslides throughout an area of approximately 16,000 km2. These landslides caused hundreds of fatalities as well as extensive property damage. Landslides disrupted both highways and the railroad system and thus severely hindered early rescue efforts. In Guatemala City, extensive property...

Annual and semiannual variations of the geomagnetic field at equatorial locations Annual and semiannual variations of the geomagnetic field at equatorial locations

For a year of quiet solar-activity level, geomagnetic records from American hemisphere observatories located between about 0?? and 30?? north geomagnetic latitude were used to compare the annual and semiannual variations of the geomagnetic field associated with three separate contributions: (a) the quiet-day midnight level, MDT; (b) the solar-quiet daily variation, Sq; (c) the quiet-time...

Small landslide types and controls in glacial deposits: Lower Skagit river drainage, northern cascade range, Washington Small landslide types and controls in glacial deposits: Lower Skagit river drainage, northern cascade range, Washington

Observations of 167 small, shallow landslides spanning a 22-year period on extensively logged slopes of Quaternary terraces in the lower Skagit and Baker Valleys, Washington, shows that there is a relationship between the common slope failures in this area and the slope angle, stratigraphy, and logging practices. Landslide frequency increases upvalley, as do mean annual precipitation and...

Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: December 1981 Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: December 1981

The preliminary geomagnetic data included here is made available to scientific personnel and organizations, as part of a cooperative effort and on a data exchange basis because of the early need by some users. To avoid delay, all of the data is copied from original forms processed at the observatory; therefore it should be regarded as preliminary.
