Six streamflow gain-and-loss investigations, conducted in 1982 along a 25.8 mi reach of the South Platte River, indicate an average downstream gain in discharge of 150 cu ft/sec during the irrigation season. The Fort Morgan Canal and the Lower Platte and Beaver Canal had decreasing discharges in the downstream direction. The Upper Platte and Beaver Canal had a slight increased in discharge at the second measurement site and decreases in the third and fourth measurement sites. Irrigation practices and some loss to the groundwater system account for the general decrease in discharge. Suspended sediment data were collected at the streamflow-gaging station 06758500 South Platte River near Weldona and on the three irrigation canals: Fort Morgan Canal, Upper Platte and Beaver Canal, and Lower Platte and Beaver Canal. The data indicate that relations exist between the suspended sediment concentrations at the South Platte River station and the suspended sediment concentrations at the most upstream measurement site on each canal. Relations between suspended sediment discharge and water discharge were developed at all canal measurement sites. For all the canals, suspended sediment discharge decreased in a downstream direction. Slight increases in suspended sediment occurred at the second measurement site on the Upper Platte and Beaver Canal and at the third measurement site on the Lower Platte and Beaver Canal. Laboratory analyses indicate that 75% of the suspended sediment is silt and clay size (particles finer than 0.062 mm).&nbsp;</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/wri844220","usgsCitation":"Ruddy, B.C., 1984, Streamflow gain-and-loss and suspended-sediment characteristics of the South Platte River and three irrigation canals near Fort Morgan, Colorado: U.S. Geological Survey Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4220, iv, 82 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wri844220.","productDescription":"iv, 82 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":415937,"rank":3,"type":{"id":36,"text":"NGMDB Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_36074.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":58291,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1984/4220/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":159819,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1984/4220/report-thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Colorado","city":"Fort Morgan","otherGeospatial":"South Platte River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -104.017,\n              40.385\n            ],\n            [\n              -104.017,\n              40.205\n            ],\n            [\n              -103.483,\n              40.205\n            ],\n            [\n              -103.483,\n              40.385\n            ],\n            [\n              -104.017,\n              40.385\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b15e4b07f02db6a4d6a","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ruddy, B.

Fourteen types of landslides were identified in the earthquakes studied. The most abundant of these were rock falls, disrupted soil slides, and rock slides. The greatest losses of human life were due to rock avalanches, rapid soil flows, and rock falls.

Four types of internally disrupted landslides—rock falls, rock slides, soil falls, and disrupted soil slides—are initiated by the weakest shaking. More coherent, deeper-seated slides require stronger shaking; lateral spreads and flows require shaking that is stronger still; and the strongest shaking is probably required for very highly disrupted rock avalanches and soil avalanches.</p><p>Each type of earthquake-induced landslide occurs in a particular suite of geologic environments.

A color-balanced 'standard' color-composite image is first produced using any desired contrast stretching algorithm. The stretched digital data are then transformed into the cylindrical Munsell color space. An enhanced version of a color-composite image is produced by stretching the saturation parameter over the full digital range and inverting the modified Munsell coordinates to red-blue-green (tristimulus) data space. The resulting image has greater color-saturation contrast than the original image, without hue change. Contrast stretching in Munsell color space reduces the correlation between individual bands or ratios and is similar to decorrelation processing based on principal-components transforms. However, principal components are based on data variance, with less variance being explained by each higher order component.","conferenceTitle":"Proceedings of the International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, Third Thematic Conference: Remote Sensing for Exploration Geology.","conferenceLocation":"Colorado Springs, CO, USA","language":"English","publisher":"Environmental Research Inst of Michigan","publisherLocation":"Ann Arbor, MI, USA","usgsCitation":"Kruse, F.A., and Raines, G.L., 1984, TECHNIQUE FOR ENHANCING DIGITAL COLOR IMAGES BY CONTRAST STRETCHING IN MUNSELL COLOR SPACE., Proceedings of the International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, Third Thematic Conference: Remote Sensing for Exploration Geology., Colorado Springs, CO, USA, p. 755-760.","startPage":"755","endPage":"760","numberOfPages":"6","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":225751,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505ba37be4b08c986b31fd05","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kruse, Fred A.","contributorId":26811,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kruse","given":"Fred","email":"","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":367525,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Raines, Gary L.","contributorId":48162,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Raines","given":"Gary","email":"","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":367526,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

Accuracy is estimated to be ∓ 20% for those elements making up more than 0.1 wt.% of the particles and ∓ 50% for elements making up less than 0.1 wt.%. Using IMMA data, we found statistically significant differences between the two samples for five (Fe, Ca, Mn, Li, Ce) of the 25 elements detected. For Li and Mn the differences between the mineral-rich particles within samples were similar to differences found between samples on a whole-coal basis. For Ca and Fe, the differences are attributed to different modes of occurrence, and for Ce, the differences are probably due to an irregular distribution of an inorganic phase. We conclude that the IMMA can be used to obtain semi-quantitative data that may provide insight into the distribution and mode of occurrence of some of the elements in coal.</p></div></div></div></div><div id=\"preview-section-introduction\"><br></div><div id=\"preview-section-snippets\"><br></div><div id=\"preview-section-references\"><br></div>","language":"English","publisher":"Elsevier","doi":"10.1016/0166-5162(84)90021-1","issn":"01665162","usgsCitation":"Finkelman, R.B., Simons, D., Dulong, F., and Steel, E., 1984, Semi-quantitative ion microprobe mass analyses of mineral-rich particles from the upper freeport coal: International Journal of Coal Geology, v. 3, no. 3, p. 279-289, https://doi.org/10.1016/0166-5162(84)90021-1.","productDescription":"11 p.","startPage":"279","endPage":"289","numberOfPages":"11","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220631,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"3","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505b8d08e4b08c986b318234","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Finkelman, R.

A two-curve, disjointed relation occurred for the remaining two basins - the residential basin and the apartment basin.

Statistical comparisons indicate the more radiometric or color information exists in certain TM three-band combinations than in the three SPOT bands.","largerWorkTitle":"Proceedings of the International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment","conferenceTitle":"Proceedings of the Eighteenth International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment.","conferenceLocation":"Paris, Fr","language":"English","publisher":"Environmental Research Inst of Michigan","publisherLocation":"Ann Arbor, MI, USA","issn":"02755505","usgsCitation":"Chavez, P.S., 1984, DIGITAL PROCESSING TECHNIQUES FOR IMAGE MAPPING WITH LANDSAT TM AND SPOT SIMULATOR DATA., <i>in</i> Proceedings of the International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, v. 1, Paris, Fr, p. 101-116.","startPage":"101","endPage":"116","numberOfPages":"16","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":225544,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059fd48e4b0c8380cd4e73e","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Cook Jerald J.","contributorId":128359,"corporation":true,"usgs":false,"organization":"Cook Jerald J.","id":536284,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1}],"authors":[{"text":"Chavez, Pat S.

Digital masking procedures were used to exclude shadow areas and vegetation and thus to produce a CRC image suitable for testing the new TM bands as a means to map hydrothermally altered rocks. Field examination of a masked CRC image revealed that several different types of altered rocks displayed hues associated with spectral characteristics common to hydroxyl-bearing minerals. Several types of unaltered rocks also displayed similar hues.","conferenceTitle":"Proceedings of the International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, Third Thematic Conference: Remote Sensing for Exploration Geology.","conferenceLocation":"Colorado Springs, CO, USA","language":"English","publisher":"Environmental Research Inst of Michigan","publisherLocation":"Ann Arbor, MI, USA","usgsCitation":"Podwysocki, M.H., Power, M.S., Salisbury, J., and Jones, O.D., 1984, EVALUATION OF LOW-SUN ILLUMINATED LANDSAT-4 THEMATIC MAPPER DATA FOR MAPPING HYDROTHERMALLY ALTERED ROCKS IN SOUTHERN NEVADA., Proceedings of the International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment, Third Thematic Conference: Remote Sensing for Exploration Geology., Colorado Springs, CO, USA, p. 541-551.","startPage":"541","endPage":"551","numberOfPages":"11","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":225619,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a046ae4b0c8380cd50983","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Podwysocki, Melvin H.","contributorId":60220,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Podwysocki","given":"Melvin","email":"","middleInitial":"H.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":367503,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Power, Marty S.","contributorId":93636,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Power","given":"Marty","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":367504,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Salisbury, Jack","contributorId":96426,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Salisbury","given":"Jack","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":367505,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Jones, O.
