Problems of this type can be multiplied indefinitely, and a general theory of partial differentiation in the large to cover all such problems is desirable. We have started to construct such a theory. Among the various theorems which we have proved are three which we announce in this note as follows. THEOREM 1. Let f(x, y) be of class C' on an open point set H. Let the four second partial derivatives fxx fxv fyx f,, exist everywhere on H. Thenf,y = fyx almost everywhere on H. THEOREM 2. Let f(x, y) be of class C' on an open point set H. Let fxy exist everywhere on H. Then there exists a point set W of positive measure on which fyx exists and equals fxy. THEOREM 3. Let f(x, y) be of class C' on the open point set H. At each point P of H let at least one of the two partial derivativesfxy,fyx exist.

    OF WESTERN AND SOUTHERN NORTH AMERICA OF WESTERN AND SOUTHERN NORTH PALEONTOLOGY GEOLOGY AND VERTEBRATE Geology and Vertebrate Paleontology of Western and Southern North America Edited By Xiaoming Wang and Lawrence G. Barnes Contributions in Honor of David P. Whistler WANG | BARNES 900 Exposition Boulevard Los Angeles, California 90007 Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Science Series 41 May 28, 2008 Magnetic stratigraphy of the Eocene to Miocene Sespe and Vaqueros formations, Los Angeles and Orange counties, California Gino Calvano,1 Donald R. Prothero,2,3 Joshua Ludtke,4 and E. Bruce Lander1,3 ABSTRACT. The middle Eocene to lower Miocene age Sespe and Vaqueros formations in northern Orange County and northwestern Los Angeles County, California, USA, yield many important vertebrate and invertebrate fossils. These include Uintan (late middle Eocene) and Arikareean to Hemingfordian (late Oligocene to early Miocene) land mammals in the Sespe Formation, and important marine mammals (including the oldest sirenians and desmostylians in California and many early whales) and mollusks of the Turritella inezana Zone in the Vaqueros Formation. Paleomagnetic analyses of five important fossil-bearing sections in northern Orange County and one in Los Angeles County were undertaken to determine the age of these fossils and to supplement previous paleomagnetic studies of the Sespe and Vaqueros sequence. More than 225 samples were collected and subjected to both thermal and alternating field demagnetization. Although most samples had a slight chemical remanence overprint resulting from goethite, their characteristic remanence was held mostly in magnetite with little hematite (despite the red color of many rocks). Both normal and reversed polarities were documented and passed reversal tests, demonstrating that the overprints had been removed and a primary or characteristic remanence revealed.

  • Ventura County
    Steelhead/rainbow trout resources of Ventura County Rincon Rincon Creek consists of about 9.7 stream miles. It flows southwest, entering the Pacific Ocean at Rincon Point. The culvert at the Highway 101 crossing is a total passage barrier (Stoecker et al. 2002). A watershed plan prepared for Rincon Creek includes a review of historical steelhead information. The review notes O. mykiss stocking occurred in the 1940s and subsequently. Anecdotal accounts of trout observations from the 1950s to the 1980s also are included (Tetra Tech 2007; Stoecker et al. 2002). Rincon Creek was surveyed in 1993 and no fish were observed. The survey report states, “Sediment inputs from Casitas Creek are destroying downstream habitat” (Unknown 1993). A 1994 DFG memo relayed the results of surveys from that year. The memo states, “The Wheeler Fire [in 1985] could have been the event that eradicated rainbow trout from Rincon Creek, although there is anecdotal information from a landowner along Rincon Creek that suggests that the population was extirpated as early as the 1960’s” (DFG 1994a). The memo adds, “It appears that the Highway 101 culvert has prevented the recolonization of rainbow trout/steelhead in Rincon Creek” (DFG 1994a). Consultants surveyed Rincon Creek as part of a steelhead study, and observed O. mykiss likely representing one year class in 2001 (Stoecker et al. 2002). A 2002 memo from NMFS staff states, “Rincon Creek provides approximately 4 miles of steelhead spawning and rearing habitat…” (NMFS 2002a). A 2002 study report notes water quality impacts on Rincon Creek from the large sediment load carried by Casitas Creek, a tributary (Stoecker et al.

  • An Assessment of the Vertebrate Paleoecology and Biostratigraphy of the Sespe Formation, Southern California
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY AN ASSESSMENT OF THE VERTEBRATE PALEOECOLOGY AND BIOSTRATIGRAPHY OF THE SESPE FORMATION, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA by Thomas M. Bown1 Open-File Report 94-630 1994 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards (or with the North American Stratigraphic Code). Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. 1 USGS, Denver, Colorado Abstract Fossil vertebrates occurring in the continental Sespe Formation of southern California indicate that deposition of the upper third of the lower member and the middle and upper members of the formation took place between Uintan (middle Eocene) and late early or early late Arikareean (latest Oligocene or earliest Miocene) time. Chadronian (latest Eocene) mammalian faunas are unknown and indicate a period of intraformational erosion also substantiated by sedimentologic data. The Sespe environment was probably savannah with gallery forest that formed under a climate with wet and dry seasons. More detailed knowledge of Sespe sediment accumulation rates and paleoclimates can be obtained through paleosol and alluvial architecture studies. Introduction The continental Sespe Formation (Watts, 1897) consists of over 1,650 m of coarse to fine lithic sandstone, pebble to cobble conglomerate, and variegated mudrock and claystone that is best exposed in the Simi Valley area of the Ventura Basin, southern California. It is unconformably underlain by the largely marine Llajas Formation (lower to middle Eocene; Squires, 1981), and is variously overlain conformably (gradationally) by the Vaqueros Formation (?upper Oligocene to lower Miocene; Blake, 1983), or unconformably by the Calabasas or Modelo Formations (middle Miocene), or the Pliocene Saugus Formation (Taylor, 1983).

G. VEDDER ABSTRACT Rock units of Eocene age in the southeastern San Rafael Mountains and eastern Santa Ynez Mountains have had a relatively consistent set of names for at least 20 years. In upward stratigraphic order, these units are the Sierra Blanca Limestone, Juncal Formation, Matilija Sandstone, Cozy Dell Shale, and Coldwater Sandstone. The last three originally were assigned subformational rank, but their recognition as formations is deemed valid on the basis of firmly established use of this higher rank designation and on the basis of their distribution as regionally mappable units.
