Link, Idaho State University, Geosciences Dept. http://www.isu.edu/departments/geology/ Caribou County Caribou County has the forested mountains of the Idaho-Wyoming thrust belt on its eastern side, and the wide Bear Lake and Gem valleys on its west, part of the Basin and Range province. Pleistocene volcanic rocks, mainly basalts, fill the Blackfoot Lava field and much of Gem Valley to the west. China Hat and China Cap are Pleistocene rhyolite domes. Phosphate mining still controls the economy of Caribou County, with active mines operated by Simplot, FMC, Monsanto, and Agrium between Soda Springs and Afton, Wyoming.

    LATE MIOCENE FISHES OF THE CACHE VALLEY MEMBER, SALT LAKE FORMATION, UTAH AND IDAHO by PATRICK H. MCCLELLAN AND GERALD R. SMITH MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATIONS MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, 208 Ann Arbor, December 17, 2020 ISSN 0076-8405 P U B L I C A T I O N S O F T H E MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN NO. 208 GERALD SMITH, Editor The publications of the Museum of Zoology, The University of Michigan, consist primarily of two series—the Miscellaneous Publications and the Occasional Papers. Both series were founded by Dr. Bryant Walker, Mr. Bradshaw H. Swales, and Dr. W. W. Newcomb. Occasionally the Museum publishes contributions outside of these series. Beginning in 1990 these are titled Special Publications and Circulars and each is sequentially numbered. All submitted manuscripts to any of the Museum’s publications receive external peer review. The Occasional Papers, begun in 1913, serve as a medium for original studies based principally upon the collections in the Museum. They are issued separately. When a sufficient number of pages has been printed to make a volume, a title page, table of contents, and an index are supplied to libraries and individuals on the mailing list for the series. The Miscellaneous Publications, initiated in 1916, include monographic studies, papers on field and museum techniques, and other contributions not within the scope of the Occasional Papers, and are published separately. Each number has a title page and, when necessary, a table of contents. A complete list of publications on Mammals, Birds, Reptiles and Amphibians, Fishes, I nsects, Mollusks, and other topics is available.

  • 1 Bear River Basin: Middle Bear Watershed Watershed Description the Middle Bear Watershed Includes All Land That Drains to the B
    Bear River Watershed Fact Sheets- Middle 1 English Units Revision 7/11/07 Bear River Basin: Middle Bear Watershed Watershed Description The Middle Bear Watershed includes all land that drains to the Bear River From below Alexander Dam in Idaho to Cutler Dam in Utah. It is the second largest watershed in the Bear River Basin, draining 3,230 km2. AFter the river leaves Alexander Reservoir, it makes a hairPin turn around SheeP Rock and heads south. At Grace Dam water is diverted into an aQueduct and delivered to the Grace Power Plant at Cove Dam. The river continues through the wide, relatively flat Gem and Gentile Valleys in Idaho, passes through Oneida Reservoir, and continues south through Cache Valley in Idaho and Utah. The river Flows through Cutler Reservoir and enters a narrow canyon. On its 180 kilometer journey through this watershed, the river loses about 410 meters in elevation. The highest Point in the watershed is Mt. Naomi (3040 meters) in the Naomi Peak Wilderness Area. The lowest Point is below Cutler Dam (1320 meters). Alexander Dam, Idaho-Jay Baker, USU Tributaries and Reservoirs The Cub River is the largest tributary oF the Bear River in this reach. It drains 575 km2.Other tributaries include: Cottonwood Creek Weston Creek Newton Creek Summit Creek Birch Creek There are 15 lakes and watersheds scattered throughout the Middle Bear Bear River in Gentile Valley, Idaho-Unknown Watershed. Oneida Narrows Reservoir, located on the mainstem oF the Bear River in Idaho, stores the most water. Other reservoirs include Twin Lakes, Foster, Glendale, Lamont, Strong Arm, Treasureton and Newton Reservoirs.

  • Models and Great Basin Prehistory a Symposium
    REPRINTED FROM MODELS AND GREAT BASIN PREHISTORY A SYMPOSIUM EDITED BY DON D. FOWLER DESERT RESEARCH INSTITUTE PUBLICATIONS IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES NO, 12 EDITOR: DON D. FOWLER ASSOCIATE EDITOR: ALMA SMITH 1977 GREAT BASIN LATE QUATERNARY ENVIRONMENTS AND CHRONOLOGY' PETER J. MEHRINGER, JR. WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY ABSTRACT Evidence for the magnitude and chronology of Great Basin climatic change comes from plant macrofossils of dry caves, fluctuating lake levels, spring discharge and tree lines, dune activity, peat formation in desert salt marshes, and arroyo cutting and filling. About 12,000-10,000 B.P. pluvial lakes began to dry and by 7500 B.P. climatic conditions were much like the present. With minor fluctuations, relative aridity per- sisted until about 4000 B.P. and was followed by increased effective moisture. The dynamic nature of Great Basin environments is apparent whether measured by geological or biological criteria. There were several periods when regional climatic change was sufficient to warrant investigations of its possible influence on human populations; locally, volcanic or tectonic activity may have been even more important. How- ever, instability of the last 10,000 years is no more dramatic than the ecological variation encountered by Great Basin inhabitants within a single year. Variability itself may have been most important in shaping cultural or technological adaptations. The influence of climatic change on man is best considered in terms of evidence for its effect on local resources. INTRODUCTION Great Basin anthropologists have assumed an important link between man and environment, and interpretations of cultural change have been influenced by notions of the magnitude and chronology of climatic history.
