Two USGS catalogs of earthquakes in the Southern Great Basin were edited to remove man-made seisms. Editing reduced 11,988 entries to 8,161. Known location of underground nuclear explosions provided an opportunity to assess location accuracy showing

Explosion craters in desert alluvium were formed over a range of energy releases from 256 to 1,000,000 pounds of TNT. An empirical scaling law in which crater dimensions vary as the energy release to the 0.3 power best relates dimensions from small t

The blast wave from buried explosions consists primarily of a pulse induced by the ground shock followed by another pulse when the explosive gases are vented to the atmosphere. The latter pulse provides the dominant contribution for the shallower bur

Spherical charges of cast TNT weighing 1,000, 40,000, and 1,000,000 lb were detonated at various depths below the surface in desert alluvium soil and in basalt rock to determine variation in crater dimensions with burst depth and to define scaling la

Scaling laws for craters from surface explosions are derived from the nuclear explosions and applicable chemical explosions to date. The data are insufficient for defining scaling more accurately than by a first-order power law. Nuclear and chemical

Airblast measurements were made at three locations ranging from about 3000 to 20,000 ft. from each of the four shots of ESSEX I, Phase 2, as a part of a continuing effort to record the effects of charge burial depth and emplacement configuration on t

This report assumes reasonable criteria for NRC licensing of a nuclear waste storage facility at the Nevada Test Site where it would be exposed to ground motion from underground nuclear weapons tests. Prediction equations and their standard deviation

Airblast measurements were made with two gages at each of three separate distances from the 20 cratering shots of Project Diamond Ore, Phase IIB. There were seven unstemmed single-charge shots, three unstemmed row-charge shots with three charges, thr
