Guatemalan obsidian source characterization by thermoluminescence

Description: A program was initiated to study the potential of TL measurements for the characterization of obsidian sources from Guatemala. Research to date was intended to answer three questions: (1) Is there intra-source consistency in TL glow curves. (2) Are the glow curves from each source significantly unique to allow discrimination. (3) Can one match artifact glow curves to source glow curves in cases of known provenance. Results are in agreement with neutron activation analysis. (DLC)

Canning was the prime mover of the campaign, and through a series of petitions, speeches, and press r… more

Urbanism and Energy in Developing Regions

Description: The pace of urbanization must continue, because in most parts of the world the surplus population in the countryside has nowhere else to go. The world is about 40% urban now and apparently headed for the 80 to 90% share of the total population presently exhibited by the developed countries. Thus, the 1.6 billion urban dwellers in 1978 would become about 3 billion in 1995--if major catastrophes can be avoided. Feasibility assessments for Sao Paulo-Rio de Janeiro, Calcutta, Cairo-Alexandria, Mexi… more

OTEC platform configuration and integration study. Volume I. Systems engineering and integration. Final report

Description: The economic success of an Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) system is highly dependent on a platform which provides adequate support for the power system, accommodates reliably the cold water pipe, and is most cost effective. The results of a study conducted for the Department of Energy to assess six generic types of platforms to determine the most satisfactory platform for severl potential sites are presented. The six platform configurations are ship, circular barge, semi-submersible, Tu… more

Geothermal power plants of Mexico and Central America: a technical survey of existing and planned installations

Description: In this report, the fifth in a series describing the geothermal power plants of the world, the countries of Mexico and of Central America are studied. The geothermal plants are located in areas of recent and active volcanism; the resources are of the liquid-dominated type. Details are given about the plants located at Cerro Prieto in Mexico and at Ahuachapan in El Salvador. In both cases, attention is paid to the geologic nature of the fields, the well programs, geofluid characteristics, energy… more
