    Chapter 16 Landscape Evolution: Geomorphology Topography is a Balance Between Erosion and Tectonic Uplift 1 Topography is a Balance Between Erosion and Tectonic Uplift 2 Relief • The relief in an area is the maximum difference between the highest and lowest elevation. – We have about 7000 feet of relief between Boulder and the Continental divide. Relief 3 Mountains and Valleys • A mountain is a large mass of rock that projects above surrounding terrain. • A mountain range is a continuous area of high elevation and high relief. • A valley is an area of low relief typically formed by and drained by a single stream. • A basin is a large low-lying area of low relief. In arid areas basins commonly have closed topography (no river outlet to the sea). Mountains • Typically occur in ranges. • Glaciated forms –Horn –Arête • Desert Mountains – Vertical Cliffs – Alluvial Fans 4 Mountain Landforms: Horn Deserts: Vertical Cliffs and Alluvial Fans 5 Valleys and Basins • River Valleys – U-shape (Glacial) – V-shape (Active Water erosion) – Flat-floored (depositional flood plain) • Tectonic (Fault) Valleys (Basins) – Tectonic origin – San Luis Valley – Jackson Hole – Great Basin U-shaped Valley: Glacial Erosion 6 V-shaped Valley: Active water erosion Flat-floored Valley: Depositional Flood Plain 7 Desert and Semi-arid Landforms • A plateau is a broad area of uplift with relatively little internal relief. • A mesa is a small (<10 km2)plateau bounded by cliffs, commonly in an area of flat-lying sedimentary rocks. • A butte is a small (<1000m2) hill bounded by cliffs Plateau, Mesa, Butte 8 Colorado National Monument Canyonlands 9 Desert and Semi-arid Landforms • A cuesta is an asymmetric ridge in dipping sedimentary rocks as the Flatirons.

  • Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Strategic Plan April 2018 1.0
    Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Strategic Plan April 2018 1.0 Introduction The Sutter-Butte Basin (Basin) covers 300 square miles bordered by the Cherokee Canal to the north, the Sutter Buttes to the west, the Sutter Bypass to the southwest and the 44-mile long Feather River to the east—see Figure 1. The Basin is home to 95,000 residents and encompasses $7 billion of damageable assets (as estimated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, or USACE). The region has sustained numerous floods, including the 1955 levee failure on the Feather River, which resulted in the deaths of at least 38 people. The personal safety and economic stability of large segments of the population are reliant on flood management systems that, until recent efforts, did not begin to meet modern engineering standards. Numerous projects and programs have been implemented in the Basin over the years to reduce flood risk, including the Feather River West Levee Project, which is nearing completion. The Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency (SBFCA) leads the planning and implementation efforts in the Basin to reduce the risk of catastrophic, riverine flooding. In this role, SBFCA collaborates with local, regional, state, tribal and federal agencies and organizations. On January 13, 2016 the SBFCA Board of Directors adopted the Strategic Plan to guide these efforts. This version is the first update to the Strategic Plan. 2.0 Purpose of the Strategic Plan The purpose of the Strategic Plan is to help formulate and articulate a vision for flood management within the Basin and to describe an approach to achieve this vision.

    GEO-HAZ Consulting, Inc. Geology and Slope Stability of Crestone, CO Snodgrass Mountain Ski Area March 2008 Crested Butte, CO CHAPTER 2-- GEOLOGY This chapter describes the bedrock and Quaternary geology of Snodgrass Mountain, with special emphasis of landslides. Because the area had been mapped several times before, our first task was to compare the various maps. 2.1 Methods 2.1.1 Digitizing previous landslide mapping During the winter of 2006-2007 we digitized the landslide mapping from all seven previous landslide studies (Table 2-1). These maps were georeferenced by International Alpine Design, Vail, CO, for use in our GIS, so we could visually compare the various maps. Table 2-1.

  • Controlled Groundwater Areas Fact Sheet
    FACT SHEET CONTROLLED GROUNDWATER AREAS Butte-Silver Bow Background Information: The Butte area and Upper Clark Fork Basin has been adversely affected by 120 years of hard rock mining, smelting, milling, and other processing activities. Contaminants associated with the site include arsenic, copper, lead, mercury, and zinc. Mining and ore-processing wastes represent the primary source materials. These wastes come in several different forms. They include, mill tailings, waste rock, slag, smelter fallout, and mixed combinations of each. Arsenic and metals contained in, or released from these wastes to soils, surface water, and groundwater pose significant threats to human and ecological receptors. In 1983, the EPA designated Silver Bow Creek as a Superfund site due to the impact of mining activities on the environment. In 1987, EPA expanded the Silver Bow Creek Site to include the Butte Area. The expanded site includes the city of Butte and the town of Walkerville. Several Operable Units were established to address impacted soils, surface water, groundwater, and stormwater issues. In the Butte area, these Operable Units include: Butte Mine Flooding Operable Unit; Streamside Tailings Operable Unit; Butte Priority Soils Operable Unit; West Side Soils Operable Unit; and the Active Mining and Milling Operable Unit. What is a Controlled Groundwater Area? Montana has authority to designate a controlled ground water area to prevent new appropriations or limit certain types of water appropriations due to water availability or water quality problems for the protection of existing water rights. (MCA 85-2-501). The State of Montana’s Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (Water Rights Bureau) is responsible for approving Controlled Groundwater Areas.

  • Field-Trip Guide to the Vents, Dikes, Stratigraphy, and Structure of the Columbia River Basalt Group, Eastern Oregon and Southeastern Washington
    Field-Trip Guide to the Vents, Dikes, Stratigraphy, and Structure of the Columbia River Basalt Group, Eastern Oregon and Southeastern Washington Scientific Investigations Report 2017–5022–N U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Cover. Palouse Falls, Washington. The Palouse River originates in Idaho and flows westward before it enters the Snake River near Lyons Ferry, Washington. About 10 kilometers north of this confluence, the river has eroded through the Wanapum Basalt and upper portion of the Grande Ronde Basalt to produce Palouse Falls, where the river drops 60 meters (198 feet) into the plunge pool below. The river’s course was created during the cataclysmic Missoula floods of the Pleistocene as ice dams along the Clark Fork River in Idaho periodically broke and reformed. These events released water from Glacial Lake Missoula, with the resulting floods into Washington creating the Channeled Scablands and Glacial Lake Lewis. Palouse Falls was created by headward erosion of these floodwaters as they spilled over the basalt into the Snake River. After the last of the floodwaters receded, the Palouse River began to follow the scabland channel it resides in today. Photograph by Stephen P. Reidel.
