INTRODUCTION

The Western Earth Surface Processes Team (WESPT) of the U.S. Geological Survey

(USGS) conducts geologic mapping, earth-surface process investigations, and related topical earth

science studies in the western United States. This work is focused on areas where modern geologic

maps and associated earth-science data are needed to address key societal and environmental issues

such as ground-water quality, landslides and other potential geologic hazards, and land-use

decisions. Areas of primary emphasis in 2005 included southern California, the San Francisco Bay

region, the Mojave Desert, the Colorado Plateau region of northern Arizona, and the Pacific

Northwest. The team has its headquarters in Menlo Park, California, and maintains smaller field

offices at several other locations in the western United States.

The results of research conducted by the WESPT are released to the public as a variety of

databases, maps, text reports, and abstracts, both through the internal publication system of the

USGS and in diverse external publications such as scientific journals and books. This report lists

publications of the WESPT released in 2005 as well as additional 2002 , 2003, and 2004

publications that were not included in the previous lists (USGS Open-File Reports 03-363, 2004-

1267, 2005-1362). Most of the publications listed were authored or coauthored by WESPT staff.

The list also includes some publications authored by non-USGS cooperators with the WESPT, as

well as some authored by USGS staff outside the WESPT in cooperation with WESPT projects.

Several of the publications listed are available on the World Wide Web; for these, URL

addresses are provided. Many of these web publications are USGS Open-File reports that contain

large digital databases of geologic map and related information.

Information on ordering USGS publications can be found on the World Wide Web at

http://www.usgs.gov/pubprod/, or by calling 1-888-ASK-USGS. The U.S. Geological Survey’s web

server for geologic information in the western United States is located at

http://geology.wr.usgs.gov/. More information is available about the WESPT is available on-line at
