Elusive Documents
This report presents the results of a Bureau of Reclamation seismotectonic
evaluation for dams in the Wasatch Mountains in north-central Utah. The
major objectives of this study were to identify potential earthquake sources
in the region and to estimate MCEs (maximum credible earthquakes) for these
sources. The conclusions presented in this report are based on geologic
mapping, trenching, study of aerial photography, mapping and correlation of
Quaternary deposits, soil profile descriptions and sampling, and analysis of
historic seismicity. The Regional Study area includes an area on the eastern
margin of the Basin and Range province that extends east from the …

Historical Vegetation, Fuel Loads, And Integrated Resource Information System For Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah State University, Department Of Forest Resources And Ecology Center
Elusive Documents
This report describes a comprehensive approach to understanding the role and effects of fire in Bryce Canyon National Park. The study includes a reconstruction of the historic vegetation of Bryce Canyon National Park from historic photographs, inference from computer simulation models, and research in areas of similar vegetation. The successional pathways from the historic vegetation to the present are discussed and the landscape scale consequences of fire suppression and successional devolopment are addressed.
