ELLEN TRAXEL Regional Librarian and NOREEN BREEDING Acting Regional Librarian NATIONAL PARK SERVICE PACIFIC NORTHWEST REGIONAL LIBRARY SEATTLE, WASHINGTON November 1985 - INTRODUCTION On January 17, 1983, a memorandum was issued by the Director of the National Park Service directing all Superintendents and Regional Directors to have complete legislative history files for the area(s) under their jurisdiction. In January 1985, Regional Librarian Ellen Traxe1 began reviewing legislative histories in the National Park Service to determine the scope of undertaking such a project: there had been a previous legislative history project in 1958 which covered some of the older parks in the Pacific Northwest Region. The Regional Librarian was able to obtain copies of these legislative histories. With this information, the project was defined as an updating of work accomplished for parks established prior to 1958 plus a complete compilation for parks established after that date. By February 5, 1985, a methodology had been developed for determining what congressional documents were needed and the sources for obtaining them. Three professional librarians were recruited as volunteers to compile the legislative histories. The project was substantially completed by October 1985 at a cost of $748 for reimbursement to volunteers for local travel, meals, supplies, and copying expenses. The only alternative method of acquisition (by contract) would have cost between $20,000-$25,000. COMPILER'S NOTES I. SCOPE Legislative histories for parks established before 1958 consist of two sections.

  • Time-Dependence of Electromagnetic Transfer Functions and Their
    TIME-DEPENDENCE OF ELECTROMAGNETIC TRANSFER FUNCTIONS AND THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH TECTONIC ACTIVITY E.R. NtBLETT Division of Geomagnetism Earth Physics Branch, Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, Ottawa, KIA O Y3, Canada and Y. HONKURA Earthquake Research Institute, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan Abstract. Laboratory experiments and theoretical considerations have suggested that anomalous dilatant regions can develop in the earth's crust during the period of strain accumulation prior to an earthquake. For moderate and major earthquakes such anomalous regions could be tens or even hundreds of kilometers in extent and should be detectable at the surface with appropriate survey or sounding techniques. Since electrical resistivity is one of the rock properties likely to be strongly modified in a dilatant zone, magnetoteUuric impedance and geomagnetic transfer functions might be expected to show time-dependent precursory effects if monitored over a period of time above the focal region of an impending earthquake. Such experiments have been conducted in Japan and in other parts of the world and several examples ofresitivity changes in the crust prior to earthquake occurrence have been reported. These results and their association with local seismicity are reviewed in this paper. The avai- lable evidence indicates that transfer functions and impedance can display significant time-dependent response to changing crustal conditions in some regions. However, the correspondence between these effects and earthquake occurrence is usually not very clear. Introduction During the last ten years important advances have been made in the study of earthquake precursors and the development of techniques for earthquake prediction. In seismically active regions many crustal properties are subject to change during the period of stress accumulation prior to the onset of an earthquake.
