In 1979, Denver was selected as one of the cities to be included in the Nationwide Urban Runoff Program. The Denver study was called the Denver Regional Urban Runoff Program and was a cooperative study between the Denver Regional Council of Governments and the U.S. Geological Survey. This report presents the major conclusions of the pre-Denver Regional Urban Runoff Program studies and a summary of the various elements of the Denver Regional Urban Runoff Program.

Disposal operations are planned to continue at this site until at least 1990. Data were compiled and interpreted to help understand the possible effects of the landfill on water quality in the surrounding area. Data were collected from published and unpublished reports of the U.S. Geological Survey, and from predominantly unpublished data in the files of other government agencies. The Tacoma landfill is underlain by unconsolidated, glacially derived deposits that consist of a wide variety of mixtures of clay to boulder-sized materials. Ground water is mostly the result of rainfall on the land surface, and moves through artesian aquifers (under the landfill) that are tapped for both domestic and municipal use. Hazardous liquid and dissolved wastes are probably present in the landfill, and potential flow paths for waste migration exist. An undetermined number of single-family domestic wells and 18 public-supply wells are within 3 miles of the landfill, three as close as 0.2 miles. There is only limited evidence indicating ground- and surface-water contamination. Further investigations of the geology, hydrology and water quality are needed to characterize the impact the landfill has on ground- and surface-water of the surrounding area.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/wri844351","usgsCitation":"Lum, W., and Turney, G.L., 1985, A preliminary evaluation of hydrology and water quality near the Tacoma landfill, Pierce County, Washington: U.S. Geological Survey Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4351, v, 35 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wri844351.","productDescription":"v, 35 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":57299,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1984/4351/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":122670,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1984/4351/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":415365,"rank":3,"type":{"id":36,"text":"NGMDB Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_36184.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}}],"country":"United States","state":"Washington","city":"Tacoma","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.543,\n              47.239\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.543,\n              47.185\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.457,\n              47.185\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.457,\n              47.239\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.543,\n              47.239\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"53cd4964e4b0b290850ef1eb","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lum, W.

The fracturing permits unusually high well yields. Wells tapping the bedrock yield 75 to 200 gallons per minute; those tapping bedrock in adjacent areas yield only a few tens of gallons per minute. The bedrock aquifer is recharged mainly by percolation of water from precipitation through the till. In 1983, the U.S. Geological Survey studied the hydrologic effects of increased pumpage on the fractured bedrock aquifer system near the Village of Kiryas Joel, in the Town of Monroe. Water levels were measured in several wells in the village 's two well fields from February to October 1983, and pumpage data from the same period were tabulated. Water levels responded to variations in both pumpage and precipitation. Pumping tests and water levels in the southeastern well field in 1983 had no effect on the northwestern well field. An observation well between the two fields shows about 20 feet of seasonal fluctuation from recharge and the effects of pumping at the northwestern well field.

Application of this technique to striped bass in Maryland waters of the Chesapeake Bay provided evidence for reduced survival in the life cycle. If adult fecundity and survival have remained constant, first‐year survival declined significantly from 1969 to 1983, and averaged less than that needed for replacement for the last 10 years. Treatment of the individual spawning grounds separately indicated that the downward trend in survival for the pooled data was the result of declines in the upper bay and, to a lesser extent, in the Choptank River. Alternatively, if first‐year survival and adult fecundity were assumed to have remained constant, an annual decline of about 1.9% in adult survival would have been required to produce the observed trend in the pooled year‐class data. This would be consistent with increased fishing mortality and implies declining recruitment because of declining stock size. Continuing declines in first‐year or adult survival would eliminate the Maryland striped bass stock and the fishery it supports. Conversely, an increase in adult survival could offset the effect of the unknown factor or factors responsible for the apparent decline in first‐year survival.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"American Fisheries Society","doi":"10.1577/1548-8659(1985)114<146:MSB>2.0.CO;2","usgsCitation":"Goodyear, C., Cohen, J., and Christensen, S., 1985, Maryland striped bass: Recruitment declining below replacement: Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, v. 114, no. 1, p. 146-151, https://doi.org/10.1577/1548-8659(1985)114<146:MSB>2.0.CO;2.","productDescription":"6 p.","startPage":"146","endPage":"151","costCenters":[{"id":365,"text":"Leetown Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":130862,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Maryland","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -76.45137515753754,\n              39.490431843405645\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.58379606562652,\n              38.66690029793358\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.4943486933714,\n              37.089918804712\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.96462427284425,\n              37.121312200179204\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.86444692063253,\n              37.54276135963376\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.6426165939144,\n              37.91879819208148\n            ],\n            [\n              -75.7857193310846,\n              39.6502389229056\n            ],\n            [\n              -76.45137515753754,\n              39.490431843405645\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"114","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a19e4b07f02db605979","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Goodyear, C.P.","contributorId":11538,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Goodyear","given":"C.P.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":319453,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cohen, J.E.","contributorId":85545,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cohen","given":"J.E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":319454,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Christensen, S.W.","contributorId":8023,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Christensen","given":"S.W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":319452,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

RMS cross-shore velocities due to waves in the intragravity band (wave periods greater than 20 s) had maxima in excess of 0. 5 m/s over the bar crest. For comparison to measured spectra, synthetic spectra of cross-shore flow were computed using measured nearshore profiles. The structure, in the infragravity band, of these synthetic spectra corresponded reasonably well with the structure of the measured spectra. Total variances of measured cross-shore flow within the infragravity band were nondimensionalized by dividing by total infragravity variances of synthetic spectra. These nondimensional variances were independent of distance offshore and increased with the square of the breaker height. Thus, cross-shore flow due to infragravity waves can be estimated with knowledge of the nearshore profile and incident wave conditions.

After considering various possible causes for Vp/Vs changes, such as geologic and structural differences, thermal effects, partial melting, and hydrothermal activity, we conclude that the most plausible explanation for the observed Vp/Vs reduction is the presence of hot-water at temperatures and pore-pressures near the water steam transition in the caldera geothermal reservoirs. ?? 1985.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","issn":"03770273","usgsCitation":"Chatterjee, S., Pitt, A., and Iyer, H.M., 1985, Vp/Vs ratios in the Yellowstone National Park region, Wyoming: Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, v. 26, no. 3-4, p. 213-230.","startPage":"213","endPage":"230","numberOfPages":"18","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220015,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"26","issue":"3-4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505bc373e4b08c986b32b1ad","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Chatterjee, S.N.","contributorId":28742,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Chatterjee","given":"S.N.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":365322,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Pitt, A.D.","contributorId":41440,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Pitt","given":"A.D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":365323,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Iyer, H.

The model we have attempted to test is basically analogous to strain accumulation and release along plate-boundary strike-slip faults like the San Andreas Fault in California. That is, beneath an elastic-seismogenic upper crust ???20 km thick, strain is preferentially localized within ductile shear zones in the lower crust due to broad-scale plate driving forces. The localized lower-crustal ductile strain causes stress and strain to accumulate elastically in the brittle crust which is eventually released in crustal earthquakes. At greater depths, this localized shear deformation probably develops into pervasive ductile flow. Numerous geodetic measurements along the San Andreas Fault confirm that earthquakes in the brittle upper crust are produced by the release of elastic strain that results from ongoing ductile shear or slip in the lower crust1,2. We have found evidence of high rates of crustal deformation in southern New York which suggest that localized ductile shear is occurring in the lower crust. ?? 1985 Nature Publishing Group.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Nature","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","doi":"10.1038/317705a0","issn":"00280836","usgsCitation":"Zoback, M.D., Prescott, W., and Krueger, S., 1985, Evidence for lower crustal ductile strain localization in southern New York: Nature, v. 317, no. 6039, p. 705-707, https://doi.org/10.1038/317705a0.","startPage":"705","endPage":"707","numberOfPages":"3","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":205011,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1038/317705a0"},{"id":220177,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"317","issue":"6039","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a0d48e4b0c8380cd52f0b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Zoback, Mark D.","contributorId":80275,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Zoback","given":"Mark","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":365344,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Prescott, W.H.","contributorId":96337,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Prescott","given":"W.H.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":365345,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Krueger, S.W.","contributorId":26067,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Krueger","given":"S.W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":365343,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

For problems where soil water phase change latent heat effects dominate the thermal regime, heat transport can be approximately modeled as a time-stepped steady-state condition in the thawed and frozen regions, respectively. The CVBEM provides an exact solution of the two-dimensional steady-state heat transport problem, and also provides the error in matching the prescribed boundary conditions by the development of a modeling error distribution or an approximative boundary generation. This error evaluation can be used to develop highly accurate CVBEM models of the heat transport process, and the resulting model can be used as a test case for evaluating the precision of domain models based on finite elements or finite differences.","largerWorkTitle":"Proceedings of the International Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering Symposium","conferenceTitle":"Proceedings of the Fourth International Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering Symposium.

However, frequency distributions estimated with observed data and used to justify this hypotheses are conditional. Examination of various observed field size distributions across basins and over time shows that such distributions should be regarded as the end result of an economic filtering process. Commercial discoveries depend on oil and gas prices and field development costs. Some new fields are eliminated due to location, depths, or water depths. This filtering process is called economic truncation. Economic truncation may occur when predictions of a discovery process are passed through an economic appraisal model. We demonstrate that (1) economic resource appraisals, (2) forecasts of levels of petroleum industry activity, and (3) expected benefits of developing and implementing cost reducing technology are sensitive to assumptions made about the nature of that portion of (parent) field size distribution subject to economic truncation. ?? 1985 Plenum Publishing Corporation.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Journal of the International Association for Mathematical Geology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisherLocation":"Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers","doi":"10.1007/BF01032925","issn":"00205958","usgsCitation":"Attanasi, E.D., and Drew, L., 1985, Lognormal field size distributions as a consequence of economic truncation: Journal of the International Association for Mathematical Geology, v. 17, no. 4, p. 335-351, https://doi.org/10.1007/BF01032925.","startPage":"335","endPage":"351","numberOfPages":"17","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":222743,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":205292,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF01032925"}],"volume":"17","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a494ae4b0c8380cd684b8","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Attanasi, E.

While engineers use the peak ground acceleration (PGA) to model the strong ground motion, seismologists use physical characteristics of the source and the rupture mechanism, such as fault length, stress drop, shear wave velocity, seismic moment, distance, and attenuation. This study presents a method for calculating response spectra from seismological models using random vibration theory. It then investigates the effect of various source and site parameters on peak response. Calculations are based on a nonstationary stochastic ground motion model, which can incorporate all the parameters both in frequency and time domains. The estimation of the peak response accounts for the effects of the non-stationarity, bandwidth and peak correlations of the response.","conferenceTitle":"Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference.","conferenceLocation":"Aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2, New York to Southampton","language":"English","publisher":"Computational Mechanics Ltd","publisherLocation":"Southampton, Engl","isbn":"0905451341","usgsCitation":"Safak, E., 1985, SENSITIVITY OF STRUCTURAL RESPONSE TO GROUND MOTION SOURCE AND SITE PARAMETERS., Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference., Aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2, New York to Southampton.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220173,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505aaf35e4b0c8380cd87453","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Brebbia, C.A.","contributorId":112425,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brebbia","given":"C.A.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508473,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Cakmak, A.S.","contributorId":114101,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Cakmak","given":"A.S.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508475,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Ghaffar, Abdel","contributorId":113250,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ghaffar","given":"Abdel","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508474,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":3}],"authors":[{"text":"Safak, Erdal","contributorId":73984,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Safak","given":"Erdal","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":365172,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

In-situ cone penetration tests (CPT) were performed at 13 stations. After the CPT data were transformed into equivalent standard penetration test (SPT) blow counts, analyses were performed that determined earthquake accelerations and sustained relative storm wave heights that would cause liquefaction. Vibratory core samples, up to 6 m long, were obtained in silty sand grading to sandy silt near many of the CPT locations. Results of cyclic triaxial tests performed on those samples were used to calculate earthquake accelerations and sustained storm wave heights that would liquefy the sediment.","largerWorkTitle":"ASTM Special Technical Publication","conferenceTitle":"Strength Testing of Marine Sediments: Laboratory and In-Situ Measurements.","conferenceLocation":"San Diego, CA, USA","language":"English","publisher":"ASTM","publisherLocation":"Philadelphia, PA, USA","issn":"00660558","isbn":"0803104316","usgsCitation":"Winters, W.J., 1985, LIQUEFACTION POTENTIAL OF SEDIMENT IN THE NORTHERN BERING SEA., <i>in</i> ASTM Special Technical Publication, San Diego, CA, USA, p. 454-472.","startPage":"454","endPage":"472","numberOfPages":"19","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":222343,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a40e9e4b0c8380cd65130","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Chaney Ronald C.Demars Kenneth R.","contributorId":128443,"corporation":true,"usgs":false,"organization":"Chaney Ronald C.Demars Kenneth R.","id":536247,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1}],"authors":[{"text":"Winters, William J. bwinters@usgs.gov","contributorId":522,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Winters","given":"William","email":"bwinters@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[{"id":678,"text":"Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":363157,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}
