Swash mark and grain flow Swash mark and grain flow
Swash marks composed entirely of coarse sand are commonly found on coarse-sand beaches. These swash marks are 10 to 30 centimeters in width and a few millimeters to one centimeter in height. Previous observations, mostly on finer-sand beaches, indicate swash marks are seldom over a few millimeters in height and are commonly composed of material readily floated by surface tension (e.g...

Prismatic slip of A12O3 single crystals below 1000°C in compression under hydrostatic pressure Prismatic slip of A12O3 single crystals below 1000°C in compression under hydrostatic pressure
Alumina single crystals were compressed perpendicular to the [0001] axis at a constant strain rate between 20° and 950°C. At r>200°C, failure was suppressed by_hydrostatic pressures of 500 to 1500 MPa. Prismatic slip {1120}〈1100〉 was deduced from optical observations of the lateral surfaces and from stress‐optical features in thin sections cut from the specimens. The critical resolved...

IASPEI workshop: Seismic modeling of laterally varying structures IASPEI workshop: Seismic modeling of laterally varying structures
During the past 10 years, significant progress has been made in the methods of collection and analysis of seismic reflection and refraction data. This progress has led to the development of new models for the structure and composition of the earth's crust, based on sophisticated analysis of numerous profiles in many areas of geologic importance. The third triannual meeting of the IASPEI

Seismic stratigraphic characteristics of upper Louisiana continental slope: an area east of Green Canyon Seismic stratigraphic characteristics of upper Louisiana continental slope: an area east of Green Canyon
A high-resolution seismic reflection survey was conducted in a small area of the upper Louisiana Continental Slope known as Green Canyon Area. This area includes tracts 427, 428, 471, 472, 515, and 516, that will be offered for sale in March 1982 as part of Lease Sale 67. The sea floor of this region is, slightly hummocky and is underlain by salt diapirs that are mantled by early...

Multichannel seismic profiles collected by the Teledyne Exploration Company in 1977 south of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina Multichannel seismic profiles collected by the Teledyne Exploration Company in 1977 south of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina
The U.S. Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.) collected approximately 3,700 km of multichannel-seismic reflection profiles (lines TD-1 – TD-6) south of Cape Hatteras on the continental margin. Those profiles were collected between August 15 and October 30, 1977, under U.S.G.S. contract number 14-08-0001-16209 by the Teledyne Exploration Company. The released data include copies of the original...
