The first, called Le Tart's, is' about 230 miles below Pittsburgh. It is a ripple caused by rocks - rather dangerous in low water, perceptible when the water is at a mean height, but net discoverable in moderate floods. The other, 560 miles below Pittsburgh, opposite the town of Louis ville, called, by way of pre-eminence, the falls, has a descent of 22 1-2 feet in two miles. The bed of the river consists of stratified, level, limestone. In low water, loaded boats cannot descend; in a medium flood, they pass down in safety, under the direction of apilot.

Download or read book The New Madrid Earthquake written by Myron L. Fuller and published by Care Publications. This book was released on 1993-07 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an unabridged reprint of the first book and first thorough scientific work ever published on the great New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-12. The winter of 1811-12 experienced the greatest burst of seismic energy in the history of the original 48 states. Geologist, Myron Fuller, spent several years in the field between 1900-1905 scouting the New Madrid fault zone on foot and on horseback, mapping the consequences of these giant cataclysms that had so permanently and so profoundly changed the landscape of this region 90 years before. Originally published by the U.S. Geological Survey, this book is the starting point for all serious researchers on these world-class temblors. Foreword to this 1995 printing is by seismologist, David Stewart, Ph.D.

Book Synopsis On Shaky Ground by : Norma Hayes Bagnall
Download or read book On Shaky Ground written by Norma Hayes Bagnall and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although most Americans associate earthquakes with California, the tremors that shook the Mississippi valley in southeast Missouri from December 16, 1811, through February 7, 1812, are among the most violent quakes to hit the North American continent in recorded history. Collectively known as the New Madrid earthquakes, these quakes affected more than 1 million square miles. By comparison, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake affected only 60,000 square miles, less than one-sixteenth the area of the New Madrid earthquakes. Scientists believe that each of the three greatest tremors would have measured more than 8.0 on the Richter scale, had that measuring device been in place in 1811. Vibrations were felt from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic coast and from Mexico to Canada. The quake zone was in constant movement during this period. Five towns in three states disappeared, islands vanished in the Mississippi River, lakes formed where there had been none before, and the river flowed backward for a brief period. Providing eyewitness accounts from people both on the land and on the river, Bagnall captures the fears of the residents through their tales about the smells and dark vapors that filled the air, the cries of the people, the bawling of animals, and the constant roar of the river and its collapsing banks. On Shaky Ground also traces the history of the founding of New Madrid and considers the impact of the earthquakes on population and land in southeast Missouri. Predictions for future earthquakes along the New Madrid fault, as well as instructions on preparing for and surviving a quake, are also included. Informative, clearly written, and well illustrated, On Shaky Ground will be of interest to all general readers, especially those interested in earthquakes or Missouri history.
Book Synopsis The Million Death Quake by : Roger Musson
Download or read book The Million Death Quake written by Roger Musson and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, Californians and the Japanese have known that they were at risk of catastrophic earthquakes, and prepared accordingly. But when a violent 7.0 earthquake rocked Haiti in 2010, hardly anyone knew the island nation was even at risk for disaster, and, tragically, no one was prepared. Over 300,000 people died as buildings that had never been designed to withstand such intense shaking toppled over and crushed their inhabitants. Now, scientists warn that it won't be long before a single, catastrophic quake kills one million people - and that it is going to strike right where we least expect it. In this groundbreaking book, renowned seismologist with the British Geological Survey Roger Musson takes us on an exhilarating journey to explore what scientists and engineers are doing to prepare us for the worst. With riveting tales of the scientists who first cracked the mystery of what causes the ground to violently shake, Musson makes plain the powerful geological forces driving earthquakes and tsunamis, and shows how amazing feats of engineering are making our cities earthquake-proof. Highlighting hotspots around the world from Mexico City to New York this is a compelling scientific adventure into nature at its fiercest.

Book Synopsis Cincinnati's Great Disasters by : Betty Ann Smiddy
Download or read book Cincinnati's Great Disasters written by Betty Ann Smiddy and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2007-06-20 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cincinnatis Great Disasters explores catastrophes from 1905 to 1937, featuring floods, tornadoes, fires, explosions, winter storms, and crashes. Although tragic, disasters became popular postcard subjects in the early 1900s, with many of these photograph postcards being taken by professional photographers. The postcards documenting the 1907 and 1913 floods make up the bulk of this book, as these disasters dramatically affected Cincinnatians lives and led to innovative flood prevention planning and health initiatives. Flooding ultimately determined where businesses and residences were located in the city and was a driving force behind urban renewal of the riverfront.
