Paleoflood Study (Other Keyword)
1-4 (4 Records)
Nine sediment samples and twelve charcoal samples from sites along the Arkansas River in southern Colorado were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were recovered from river terraces adjacent to the Arkansas River between Pueblo Reservoir near Florence, Colorado, and Adobe Park just west of Salida, Colorado, for the Pueblo Dam Paleoflood Study. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable...
EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM ALONG THE BIG LOST RIVER ON THE IDAHO ENGINEERING AND ENVIRONMENTAL LABORATORY (INEEL) SITE, SOUTHERN IDAHO (2002)
Bulk soil samples from paleoflood study sites on the southwest portion of the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL) site on the Snake River Plain in southern Idaho were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. Samples were collected from trench wall exposures in eolian and alluvial deposits flanking the Big Lost River. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified in each of the samples, and potentially radiocarbon datable...
EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL FOR RADIOCARBON DATABLE MATERIAL FROM ALONG THE LOWER PECOS RIVER, NEW MEXICO (2004)
A total of five bulk soil samples from along the Lower Pecos River near Carlsbad, New Mexico, were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were collected as part of the paleoflood frequency analyses for Brantley and Avalon Dams. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material was separated.
EXAMINATION OF BULK SOIL/DETRITAL CHARCOAL FROM LAHONTAN DAM, NEVADA (2015)
Six bulk soil samples and nine detrital charcoal samples from site locations CR4, CR5, CR6, and CR7 along the Carson River, in the lower Carson River Basin, Nevada were analyzed to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon age determination. These samples were recovered from stream deposits near the Lahontan Dam and Reservoir (Jeanne Godaire, personal communication September 1, 2015). Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially radiocarbon datable material...
