New Hampshire Geologic Survey publications include bulletins, bulletins with maps, maps, fact sheets, subject reports and CDs. Fact sheets are listed separately. All other publications can be found using one of two methods below.
- By Category. In the “Complete List of Geologic Publications” look under the category of interest and choose the publication needed. For example, if you are looking for a bedrock map of Hillsboro, look under the “Bedrock Geology” category and look for Hillsboro in bold, i.e., look for Geo-045-062500-BMAP: Nielson, D.L., 1981, Geologic Map and Structure Sections of the Hillsboro quadrangle, New Hampshire: color, scale 1:62,500.
- By Quad Tile Number.. Using the 7.5-minute Quad Tile or 15-minute Quad Tile index maps, find the map tile number that covers the area you are interested in. For example, if the area of Hillsboro you are looking for falls within 15-minute map tile # 44, you may want publication and map number Geo-044-062500-BBBM: Heald, M.T., 1950, Geology of the Lovewell Mountain quadrangle, New Hampshire: 29 p. with illus. and map.
- By Index Map. Use the New Hampshire Surficial Geology Mapping Index
to find the status of surficial mapping to date. Refer to the lists of quad tile numbers in the left margin of that index map, to find the map number for the map of that quadrangle.
