Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Geophysical Characterization of the Soda Butte Creek Drainage: Yellowstone National Park
Geophysical techniques were used to help characterize the subsurface of the Soda Butte Creek drainage. Both seismic refraction surveys and vertical electrical soundings (ves) were performed in an attempt to better understand the characteristics of the local aquifer. The study site is located near the northeastern boundary of Yellowstone National Park, and it is approximately three miles from the community of Cooke City, Montana. Soda Butte Creek is a major tributary of the Lamar River, which in turn is a major tributary of the Yellowstone River; thus, this investigation will assist the National Park Service in decisions concerning future development along the Park's northeastern boundary. Three seismic refraction surveys and seven soundings have been used to define the following parameters associated with the valley's subsurface.
