From summary: The purpose of this analysis is to provide photovoltaic (P/V) system design and field engineers with an understanding of the primary factors which can cause individual P/V cells in a module or an array to be forced into reverse bias and eventual failure and to provide guidelines for the adequate protection of the cells.

From abstract: This abbreviated data report presents results of ground water and stream/surface sediment reconnaissance in the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS) Phoenix 10 x 2 quadrangle. Surface sediment samples were collected at 1388 sites, at a target sampling density of one site per 15 square kilometers (6 square miles). Ground water samples were collected at 155 sites. Neutron activation analysis (NAA) results are given for uranium and 16 other elements in sediments, and for uranium and 9 other elements in ground water. Mass spectrometry results are given for helium in ground water. Field measurements and observations are reported for each site. Analytical data and field measurements are presented in tables and maps.

From abstract: This abbreviated data report presents results of ground water and stream/surface sediment reconnaissance in the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS) San Bernardino 10 x 2 quadrangle.

A report about chromite deposits in the Seiad Creek and McGuffy Creek districts and the Ladd mine, Siskiyou County, California, that occur in dunite-peridotite bodies that are part of an ophiolitic sequence in the western Paleozoic and Triassic belt of the Klamath Mountains.

Letter from E. J. Cruickshank-Robb to Doris Appel discussing a previous letter Appel sent with questions about the location of some portrait plaques, as well the possibility of the two meeting in person. The letter contains the header, "History of Medicine".

Four detailed intercomparisons were made for a number of models of cavity-type self-calibrating radiometers (pyrheliometers). Each intercomparison consisted of simultaneous readings of pyrheliometers at 30-second intervals in runs of 10 minutes, with at least 15 runs per intercomparison. Twenty-seven instruments were in at least one intercomparison, and five were in all four. Summarized results and all raw data are provided from the intercomparisons.

The first volume in a series of reports that follows an airborne radiometric and magnetic survey that was performed over the area covered by Santa Maria and San Luis Obispo, California. This volume describes systems used, the calibration of the systems, the data processing procedures, data display format, the interpretation rationale, and the interpretation methodology.

The second volume of a report regarding an airborne gamma-ray spectrometer and magnetometer survey of the Santa Maria Quadrangle, in California. This report produces the data on the geology, radioactive mineral occurrences, and geophysical data interpretations.
