    New Mexico Geological Society Downloaded from: http://nmgs.nmt.edu/publications/guidebooks/26 An interpretation of the structural geology of the Franklin Mountains, Texas Earl M. P. Lovejoy, 1975, pp. 261-268 in: Las Cruces Country, Seager, W. R.; Clemons, R. E.; Callender, J. F.; [eds.], New Mexico Geological Society 26th Annual Fall Field Conference Guidebook, 376 p. This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1975 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks. Copyright Information Publications of the New Mexico Geological Society, printed and electronic, are protected by the copyright laws of the United States.

  • Runoff and Sediment Yield from Proxy Records: Upper Animas Creek Basin, New Mexico
    United States Department of Agriculture Runoff and Sediment Yield from Forest Service Proxy Records: Rocky Mountain Research Station Research Paper RMRS-RP-18 Upper Animas Creek Basin, New Mexico June 1999 W. R. Osterkamp Abstract Osterkamp, W. R. 1999. Runoff and sediment yield from proxy records: upper Animas Creek Basin, New Mexico. Res. Pap. RMRS-RP-18. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 50 p. Analyses of water- and sediment-yield records from the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed, the San Simon Wash Basin, and the Jornada Experimental Range, combined with observations of regional variations in climate, geology and soils, vegetation, topography, fire frequency, and land-use history, allow estimates of present conditions of water and sediment discharges in the upper Animas Creek Basin, New Mexico. Further, the records are used to anticipate fluxes of water and sediment should watershed conditions change. Results, intended principally for hydrologists, geomorpholo- gists, and resource managers, suggest that discharges of water and sediment in the upper Animas Creek Basin approximate those of historic, undisturbed conditions, and that erosion rates may be generally lower than those of comparison watersheds. If conversion of grassland to shrubland occurs, sediment yields, due to accelerated upland gully erosion, may increase by 1 to 3 orders of magnitude. However, much of the released sediment would likely be deposited along Animas Creek, never leaving the upper Animas Creek Basin. Keywords: runoff, sediment yield, erosion, Animas Creek Author W. R. Osterkamp is a research hydrologist with the U. S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, Tucson, AZ.

As agreed with your office, we gathered information on areas managed by two agencies: the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLN) and the Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service. Specifically, this report provides information on (1) legislative guidance and the agency policies governing wilderness study area management, (2) the various activities and uses occurring in the agencies’ study areas, (3) the ways these activities and uses affect the areas, and (4) agency actions to monitor and restrict these uses and to repair damage resulting from them. Appendixes I and II provide data on the number, acreage, and locations of wilderness study areas managed by BLM and the Forest Service, as well as data on the types of uses occurring in the areas.

  • Reconstruction of Mid Wisconsin Environments in Southern New Mexico
    Articles Arthur H. Harris Reconstruction of Mid Wisconsin Environments in Southern New Mexico Abundant vertebrate remains from two mid-Wisconsin cave deposits in New Mexico allow reconstruction of paleoenvironments. Dry Cave lies in southeastern New Mexico, U-Bar Cave in the extreme southwest (Figure 1). Both sites are in the ecotone between woodland and Chihuahuan Desert vegetations. During the mid Wisconsin, both had vertebrate species indicative of woodland, but otherwise differed greatly. Dry Cave had winter temperatures milder than those at the site today, but otherwise the climate was similar to that now found some 450 km to the north. Except for taxa allowed into the area by mild winters, extralimital forms occur in nearby highland woodlands or in northeastern New Mexico. U-Bar Cave probably lacked winter freezes, had cool summers, and had precipitation more evenly distributed than now. Taxa now as distant as the Great Basin occurred together with species from the nearer highlands. Relatively warm summers and retention of seasonal patterns of precipitation at Dry Cave in contrast to cool summers and decreased seasonality of precipitation at U-Bar Cave produced more extreme biotic differences between the sites than is the case now. Whether this was due to different contemporaneous climatic regimes or to chronological differences between the faunas is uncertain. The last major subdivision of the Pleistocene Epoch is the Wisconsin Age. Between ice advances in the early Wisconsin, terminating around 60 000 B.P., and a major renewal of glacial activity in the late Wisconsin, commencing around 32 000 to 27 000 B. P., there was a long span of less severe climatic conditions, the mid Wisconsin (see Bradley 1985 for age estimates).

  • Cultural Resources Overview Desert Peaks Complex of the Organ Mountains – Desert Peaks National Monument Doña Ana County, New Mexico
    Cultural Resources Overview Desert Peaks Complex of the Organ Mountains – Desert Peaks National Monument Doña Ana County, New Mexico Myles R. Miller, Lawrence L. Loendorf, Tim Graves, Mark Sechrist, Mark Willis, and Margaret Berrier Report submitted to the Wilderness Society Sacred Sites Research, Inc. July 18, 2017 Public Version This version of the Cultural Resources overview is intended for public distribution. Sensitive information on site locations, including maps and geographic coordinates, has been removed in accordance with State and Federal antiquities regulations. Executive Summary Since the passage of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) in 1966, at least 50 cultural resource surveys or reviews have been conducted within the boundaries of the Desert Peaks Complex. These surveys were conducted under Sections 106 and 110 of the NHPA. More recently, local avocational archaeologists and supporters of the Organ Monument-Desert Peaks National Monument have recorded several significant rock art sites along Broad and Valles canyons. A review of site records on file at the New Mexico Historic Preservation Division and consultations with regional archaeologists compiled information on over 160 prehistoric and historic archaeological sites in the Desert Peaks Complex. Hundreds of additional sites have yet to be discovered and recorded throughout the complex. The known sites represent over 13,000 years of prehistory and history, from the first New World hunters who gazed at the nighttime stars to modern astronomers who studied the same stars while peering through telescopes on Magdalena Peak. Prehistoric sites in the complex include ancient hunting and gathering sites, earth oven pits where agave and yucca were baked for food and fermented mescal, pithouse and pueblo villages occupied by early farmers of the Southwest, quarry sites where materials for stone tools were obtained, and caves and shrines used for rituals and ceremonies.
