System designed for issuing landslide alerts in the San Francisco Bay area System designed for issuing landslide alerts in the San Francisco Bay area
A system for forecasting landslides during major storms has been developed for the San Francisco Bay area by the U.S Geological Survey and was successfully tested during heavy storms in the bay area during February 1986. Based on the forecasts provided by the USGS, the National Weather Service (NWS) included landslide warnings in its regular weather forecasts or in special weather...

Cenozoic unconformities and depositional supersequences of North Atlantic continental margins: Testing the Vail model Cenozoic unconformities and depositional supersequences of North Atlantic continental margins: Testing the Vail model
Integrated outcrop, borehole, and seismic reflection stratigraphy from the U.S. and Irish margins of the North Atlantic basin reveals a framework of Cenozoic depositional supersequences and interregional unconformities that resembles the Vail depositional model. Paleo-bathymetric and paleoceanographic analyses of associated microfossil assemblages indicate a genetic link between the...

DEFORESTATION AND LANDSLIDES IN YUNNAN, CHINA. DEFORESTATION AND LANDSLIDES IN YUNNAN, CHINA.
Landslides historically have caused severe erosion problems in the Xiao River drainage region of northeastern Yunnan Province, China, that hence resulted in serious economic and social consequences. Owing to monsoonal storms of high rainfall intensity, the erosion potential is high in this mountainous, seismically active region. Landslides transported large quantities of materials into...

The Steens Mountain (Oregon) geomagnetic polarity transition: 3. Its regional significance The Steens Mountain (Oregon) geomagnetic polarity transition: 3. Its regional significance
Study of the variations of direction and intensity of the geomagnetic field as recorded by the Miocene lava flows on Steens Mountain, southeastern Oregon, has resulted in a detailed description of total field behavior during a reversal in polarity. In addition to information about the polarity reversal itself, the detailed paleomagnetic record includes several thousand years of...

Reflections from midcrustal rocks within the Mesozoic subduction complex near the eastern Aleutian Trench Reflections from midcrustal rocks within the Mesozoic subduction complex near the eastern Aleutian Trench
Seismic reflection data collected in 1973 by Western Geophysical Company show that highly reflective rocks make up the midcrust of the convergent margin adjacent to the eastern Aleutian Trench. These rocks form an arch that strikes obliquely across the strongly expressed northeast-southwest structural grain of exposed Mesozoic rocks. In an earlier report we proposed that the deep events...
