Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: September 1982 Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: September 1982

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.

Paleomagnetic data from the Coso Range, California and current status of the Cobb Mountain normal geomagnetic polarity event Paleomagnetic data from the Coso Range, California and current status of the Cobb Mountain normal geomagnetic polarity event

Two basalt flows which erupted about 1.08 m.y. ago in the Coso Range, California, have normal magnetic polarity and thus provide additional evidence for the Cobb Mountain normal polarity event. A review of available data confirms that this event was of geomagnetic origin. A mean age of 1.10 ± 0.02 m.y. B.P. for the Cobb Mountain normal polarity event was found to best fit all available...

Stratigraphy, structure, absolute age, and paleontology of the upper Pleistocene deposits at Sankaty Head, Nantucket Island, Massachusetts Stratigraphy, structure, absolute age, and paleontology of the upper Pleistocene deposits at Sankaty Head, Nantucket Island, Massachusetts

The Sankaty Head cliff exposes drift of at least two glaciations and interglacial marine deposits. Radiocarbon, amino-acid- racemization, and uranium-thorium analyses were used to determine the absolute ages of the beds. The results indicate that 1) the Sankaty Sand correlates with oxygen-isotope stage 5 (Sangamonian), 2) the underlying drift is older than stage 5 (Illinoian or older)...

High-resolution seismic-reflection profiles from the R/V Columbus Iselin, cruise CI 7-78-2, over the continental shelf and slope in the Georges Bank area High-resolution seismic-reflection profiles from the R/V Columbus Iselin, cruise CI 7-78-2, over the continental shelf and slope in the Georges Bank area

In September 1978, the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected 5,029 km of single-channel seismic-reflection data from the Georges Bank area of the Atlantic Continental Shelf and Slope during the R/V COLUMBUS ISELIN cruise CI 7-78-2. The purpose of the cruise was to determine the location and frequency of mass sediment movement and other geologic hazards along the Continental Slope...

A note on transients in the SRO and ASRO long-period data A note on transients in the SRO and ASRO long-period data

Data users have occasionally observed pulse-like transients in the long-period waveforms recorded at the Seismic Research Observatories (SRO) and at the Modified High-Gain Long-Period (ASRO) stations. In a recent paper, Dziewonski et al (1981) reported transients associated with earthquake signals record at some SRO stations, and the authors ascribed these transients to an unpredictable...
