    Origin of the Cheney-Palouse Scabland tract (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The Cheney-Palouse tract of the channeled scabland is the largest continuous tract of scabland in eastern Washington. The tract is composed of a varied assortment of bedrock erosional forms, loess islands, and gravel bars. Prominent bedrock longitudinal grooves and inner channels formed by macroturbulent plucking erosion of the jointed rock. Loess island forms vary as a function of their position within the flow. The three major types (submerged, partially submerged, and subaerially exposed) created sedimentologic conditions and resulting bar forms distinct from one another. Other bar forms, notably expansion bars, account for most of the sedimentation in the tract.

    Large-scale erosional and depositional features of the Channeled Scabland (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The channeled scabland is a great anastomosing complex of highly overfit stand channels eroded into the basalt bedrock and overlying sediments of the Columbia Plateau. Both the erosional and depositional bed forms in these channels are described according to a simple hierarchical classification. The catastrophic flood flows produced macroforms (scale controlled by channel width) through the erosion of rock and sediment and by deposition (bars). Mesoforms (scale controlled by channel depth) are also erosional and depositional.

    Quaternary geology of the Channeled Scabland and adjacent areas (1978)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The quaternary history of the channeled scabland is characterized by discrete episodes of catastrophic flooding and prolonged periods of loess accumulation and soil formation. The loess sequence was correlated with Richmond's Rocky Mountain glacial chronology. At least five major catastrophic flood events occurred in the general vicinity of the channeled scabland. The earliest episode occurred prior to the extensive deposition of the Palouse formation. The last major episode of flooding occurred between about 18,000 and 13,000 years ago. It probably consisted of two outbursts from glacial Lake Missoula.

    Energetic electron anisotropies in the magnetotail - Identification of open and closed field lines (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Unidirectional anisotropies in the energetic electron fluxes (E greater than or equal to about 200 keV) have been observed in the earth's magnetotail with the Caltech Electron/Isotope Spectrometer on IMP-8. The anisotropies occur during periods of enhanced fluxes and provide essential information on the topology (open or closed) of the magnetotail field lines which are associated with recently identified acceleration regions.

    Energetic electrons in the Jovian magnetosphere (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Results are reported for a detailed analysis of Pioneer 10 data on energetic particle species in the magnetodisk region of Jupiter's magnetosphere. It is shown that the observed counting rates in the magnetodisk (beyond 20 Jupiter radii) were caused primarily by electrons with energies exceeding 0.06 MeV. Absolute omnidirectional electron intensities in the magnetodisk are presented for five integral energy ranges, and a model electron differential energy spectrum is found to fit the intensities throughout most of the encounter trajectory. It is suggested that the observed spectral shape results from losses of high-energy electrons by pitch-angle scattering. Observed equatorial energy spectra are used to compute distribution functions for several values of the first adiabatic invariant, mu. The radial profiles of the functions are found to have maxima at about 50 Jupiter radii inbound as well as at about 90 radii outbound and to diminish strongly for lesser radii. The large decreases in density are shown to require strong losses, and resonant electron whistler-mode pitch-angle scattering is suggested as a loss mechanism.

    Morphometry of streamlined forms in terrestrial and Martian channels (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Streamlined erosional forms in the Channeled Scabland are compared with streamline features recognized in the region of the Kasei Vallis on Mars shown in Viking imagery. The morphometric analysis considers three physical parameters, length, measured parallel to the suggested flow direction; width, taken as the maximum width of the streamlined form perpendicular to the flow direction; and area, measured with a grid placed over the surface. These parameters are used to calculate a dimensionless parameter k, defined as the square of the length multiplied by pi over four times the area. For the 137 Scabland forms studied k values range from 1.0 to 8.3 with an average of 3.2. The k values for 47 Martian streamlined forms range from 1.5 to 12.0 with an average of 3.8. The rough similarity of these results suggests that the terrestrial and Martian features were formed by similar processes. The forms appear to have developed an ideal shape, sufficiently elongated to reduce pressure drag in the fluid creating them, but not so long as to create excessive skin resistance.

    The Spokane flood controversy and the Martian outflow channels (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The controversy over Bretz's hypothesis concerning the cataclysmic Spokane flood is discussed. Attention is directed to similarities between the Channeled Scabland of Washington and some Martian land features considered to be catastrophic flood channels. Characteristics of the enormous plexus of proglacial stream channels eroded into the loess and basalt of the Columbia Plateau in eastern Washington are described. The controversiality of the suggestion that a catastrophic flood is responsible for the Martian features is considered with respect to the Spokane flood controversy.

    The magnetopause energetic electron layer. I - Observations along the distant magnetotail (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Instrumentation aboard Imp 8 was used to study the magnetopause energetic electron layer along the distant magnetotail, and the observations are discussed. The inner edge of the layer corresponds to the magnetopause boundary, and energetic electrons within the layer persistently stream tailward along local magnetosheath field lines. Pitch angles of electrons along the dusk magnetopause are often restricted to values less than approximately 40 deg, while along the dawnside of the tail somewhat larger pitch angles are normally seen. The differential energy spectra of electrons in the layer, the intensity enhancements, and the average directional intensities are characterized.

    Vibrationally-excited hydroxyl molecules in the lower atmosphere (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The vibrational energy distributions of hydroxyl molecules in the lower atmosphere were calculated. As expected, the distributions are found to be highly nonequilibrated. Attention is drawn to the role that vibrationally-excited molecules may play in modifying the chemistry of the lower atmosphere. The most likely role for the OH molecule in the stratosphere is via reactions that may not otherwise be energetically viable.

    Radial diffusion in Jupiter's magnetosphere (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Radial phase-space density profiles for equatorially mirroring particles are computed from data obtained by Pioneer 10. The profiles are consistent only with radial diffusion subject to nonadiabatic losses. It is suggested that these losses are due to pitch-angle scattering by whistler turbulence.
