2005-2007 Publications for California:
Scientific Investigations Reports

Scientific Investigations Reports are generally aimed at a core professional and non-core professional audience. They contain significant data and interpretations and are reports of lasting scientific importance, but they are generally more limited in scientific scope and/or geographic coverage. Publications prior to 2005 can be found at the USGS Publications Warehouse.
