Guánica and the lower Rio Loco valley lie between the extensive agricultural development in Lajas Valley to the west and the industrial development at Guayanilla to the east. Having a protected deep-water port, the Guánica area is particularly well suited to further development. The economic growth of the area depends, in important degree, on the amount of water available-water in the immediate area or water to be brought in from other areas.
The purpose of the study of the Guánica area was to evaluate the water supply in the immediate area. How much water is there? How much water moves through the area and what are the factors that control the movement? What is the composition of the water? And how much more water can be used?
The study itself took one year. Active data collection included measurements of streamflow, measurements of water levels in wells, measurements of well discharge, chemical analyses of surface and ground water, geologic reconnaissance, and considerable interviewing. Information for more than one year was obtained for rainfall and other weather data, well pumpage, water leaving Lago loco, and water used by the Southwestern Puerto Rico project.

\nThe eugeosyncline contains a fragmentary record of Middle Devonian rocks at least 4,000 feet thick characterized by thin-bedded chert, siliceous mudstone, and some limestone and volcanic rocks. The original thickness, however, probably exceeded 6,000 feet and probably included Lower and Upper Devonian rocks. The miogeosyncline contains Lower, Middle, and Upper Devonian rocks as much as 6,000 feet thick characterized by thick units of dolomite and limestone and some local interbeds of sandstone. A transitional zone perhaps 50 miles wide separates the eugeosynclinal and miogeosynclinal facies. The craton contains mostly Upper Devonian rocks, generally less than 1,000 feet thick, characterized by dolomite and limestone and local interbeds of sandstone and mudstone.
\nWidespread crustal movements occurred during Late Devonian time. The Antler orogeny in Nevada initiated a culm facies in the geosyncline. Eugeosynclinal and transitional rocks including those of Devonian age were uplifted to form the Antler orogenic belt, and then were thrust eastward over autochthonous miogeosynclinal rocks in latest Devonian or earliest Mississippian time. Folding and faulting, and subsequent erosion on local uplifts, produced clastic deposits of Late Devonian age in Utah and southwestern Colorado.
\nDevonian rocks in many parts of the geosynclinal area have been moved since Devonian time by large-scale, generally eastward thrusting, oroflexural bending and strike-slip faulting.
\nFour major subdivisions of the Devonian System and related rocks are treated separately:
\n1) Lower Devonian (Gedinnian, Siegenian, Emsian) and related Upper Silurian (Ludlovian) rocks.
\n2) Middle Devonian (Eifelian and Givetian) rocks.
\n3) Lower Upper Devonian (Frasnian, to I) rocks.
\n4) Upper Upper Devonian (Famennian, to II-VI) and related lowermost Mississippian (Tournaisian, cu I) rocks.

It comprises cratonic rocks in the east and miogeosynclinal rocks in the west.
\nThe cratonic rocks thicken generally northward from their southern limit in Wyoming across a broad shelf that occupies most of Wyoming and Montana. In northern Montana, they are as much as 1,250 feet thick. Cratonic rocks also thicken eastward from areas of Early Mississippian erosional thinning in central and eastern Montana to as much as 2,000 feet in the intracratonic Williston basin centered in northwestern North Dakota.
\nThe miogeosynclinal rocks, which moved eastward on low-angle thrust faults, abut against cratonic rocks along a north-trending disturbed belt in western Wyoming, western Montana and eastern Idaho. The miogeosynclinal rocks thicken abruptly westward from 1,000 feet near this belt to about 3,000 feet near the east edge of the Idaho batholith. Farther west they have been buried beneath younger rocks, altered by the batholith, or eroded.
\nFive subdivisions of the Devonian System are treated separately:
\n1. Upper Lower Devonian (Coblenzian) marginal and nearshore marine carbonate rocks and related continental and estuarine discontinuous sinkhole and channel-fill deposits.
\n2. Upper Middle Devonian (Givetian) carbonate rocks that contain a 525-foot-thick evaporitic sequence in the Williston basin.
\n3. Lower Upper Devonian (Frasnian, toI) cyclically deposited carbonate rocks that include thick beds of dolarenite and dolomitized calcarenite on the west.
\n4. Upper Upper Devonian (Famennian, toII-IV) evaporitic rocks overlain by fossilferous open-marine shale and limestone.

Middle Devonian rocks are thicker and cover a greater area.
\n
Both Early and Middle Devonian corals are more similar to western European species than they are to presumably contemporary forms from western North America, although some of the eastern faunas contain a significant portion of endemic genera. The general outline of an eastern province was inherited from the Silurian, but disappeared by Late Devonian time when the worldwide Frasnian fauna invaded the area.
A reef fauna of middle Helderberg age is known from the northeast part of the province and is composed of both endemic and widespread genera. Approximately contemporaneous off-reef deposits have few species, but these are common in argillaceous rocks of a somewhat larger area.
Rocks of middle Onesquethaw (Schoharie) age, although thin and discintinuous, include the largest and most widespread Early-Devonian coral fauna. Endemic genera are numerous but other elements are widespread and some species are apparently ancestral to species in the succeeding Onondaga fauna.
The late Onesquethaw (Onondaga) faunas are the largest and most widely distributed of all those under review. Succeeding faunas of the Cazenovia, Tioughnioga and Taghanic Stage (Hamilton-Tully sequence) are less widespread and are clearly derivatives of the late Onesquethaw fauna. The Taghanic fauna is the latest Middle Devonian rugose coral fauna in the area
Although Devonian rocks in the Appalachians have been studied for more than 150 years, they are poorly known in most of the area. The nearly complete Devonian sequence in New York has been established as the North American standard of reference.
\nThe structural belt that includes unmetamorphosed Devonian geosynclinal strata is bonded on the southeast and east by metamorphic and igneous rocks of the Blue Ridge and Piedmont provinces. Some meta-sedimentary and igneous rocks of the Piedmont may be Devonian, but the only rocks known to be of this age southeast of the structural belt are mudstones and siltstones in the subsurface of northwest Florida and adjacent Georgia.
\nThe three oldest stages of the Devonian in the Appalachian area — Helderberg, Deerpark, and Onesquethaw— consist (in ascending order) of carbonate, clastic, and carbonate rocks across an increasingly broad area. The rock units are thin, and facies relations are complex. Most units appear to have accumulated on a relatively stable base in medium- to high-energy environments.
\nSignificant subsidence began in Onesquethaw time and continued into the Carboniferous. Concurrently uplifted source areas to the east shed vast amounts of detritus, most of which was trapped in the trough. Middle and Upper Devonian strata are dominantly shallow-marine, fine-grained clastic rocks. These reach a maximum thickness of over 11,000 feet in eastern Pennsylvania.
\nMiddle Devonian terrestrial rocks occur locally on the east side of the structural belt. By the close of the Devonian they had spread widely over the northern half of the geosyncline.
\nOn the craton, the Middle and Upper Devonian rocks are limestones and shales, but units are thin and discontinuous except for black shale, which, over broad areas, is the latest Devonian deposit. Deposition of this shale persisted into post-Devonian times.

The use of metabolic inhibitors together with pH and temperature studies indicated that discrete enzymes are involved. By use of the technique of sequential analysis, the metabolic pathway was shown to be: DDT → DDD →DDMU →DDMS → DDNU → DDA → DBP, or DDT → DDE. Dechlorination was marginally enhanced by light-activated flavin mononucleotide.

The northern boundary of the area (plate 1) is the drainage divide separating these basins from that of the Charles, Neponset, and Weymouth River basins. The western boundary is, for the most part, the divide separating the basins from the Blackstone River basin. The eastern boundary is at the edge of the Brockton-Pembroke area (Petersen, 1962; Petersen and Shaw, 1961). The southern boundary in Seekonk is the northern limit of the East Providence quadrangle, for which a ground-water map was prepared by Allen and Gorman (1959); eastward, the southern boundaries of the city of Attleboro and the towns of Norton, Easton, and West Bridgewater form the southern boundary of the area.
\nThis report is one of two prepared by the Geological Survey for the Water Resources Commission. The principal purpose of this report is to make available the basic data on which the other, a map showing availability of ground water, is based. This basic-data report also can be used by engineers, planners, and others interested in or responsible for water-resources planning to determine the materials to be encountered (tables 3 and 4) and the yields which may be obtained from wells and test holes (tables 1 and 2) in the stratified sand and gravel that are the principal source of ground water and in bedrock. Partial and complete chemical analyses (tables 7 and 8) of these test holes and of some privately-owned wells provide information on the general quality of the water for domestic and other uses. A tabulation of existing municipal supplies, their capacity, production (table 5), and chemical quality of the water (table 6) may be used for regional planning purposes. Water-level measurements (figure 1) can be used to determine the annual fluctuations of the water table in certain types of materials. Seismic work (table 9) in the Canoe River valley, Norton, and test drilling with a power augur (tables 2 and 4) were done for the Geological Survey as part of the investigation.

In the first report the average recharge was estimated to be 23,000 acre-feet per year, only 1,000 acre-feet more than the estimate made in this report. All this recharge was considered to be available for development. Because of the difficulty in salvaging the subsurface outflow from the deep carbonate-rock reservoir, this report concludes that the perennial yield may be only 25,000 acre-feet. \r\n\r\nIn 1875, Bennetts and Manse Springs reportedly discharged a total of nearly 10,000 acre-feet of water from the valley-fill reservoir. After the construction of several flowing wells in 1910, the spring discharge began to decline. In the mid-1940's many irrigation wells were drilled, and large-capacity pumps were installed. During the 4-year period of this study (1959-62), the net pumping draft averaged about 25,000 acre-feet per year, or about twice the estimated yield. In 1962 Bennetts Spring was dry, and the discharge from Marse Spring was only 1,400 acre-feet. \r\n\r\nDuring the period February 1959-February 1962, pumping caused an estimated storage depletion of 45,000 acre-feet, or 15,000 acre-feet per year. If the overdraft is maintained, depletion of stored water will continue and pumping costs will increase. Water levels in the vicinity of the Pahrump, Manse, and Fowler Ranches declined more than ]0 feet in response to the pumping during this period, and they can be expected to continue to decline at ,the projected rate of more than 3 feet per year. \r\n\r\nThe chemical quality of the pumped water has been satisfactory for irrigation and domestic use. Recycling of water pumped or irrigation, however, could result in deterioration of the water quality with time.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/wsp1832","usgsCitation":"Malmberg, G.T., 1967, Hydrology of the Valley-fill and carbonate-rock reservoirs, Pahrump Valley, Nevada-California: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1832, iv, 47 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1832.","productDescription":"iv, 47 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":414133,"rank":3,"type":{"id":36,"text":"NGMDB Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_25037.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"}},{"id":27854,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1832/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":138285,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1832/report-thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California, Nevada","otherGeospatial":"Pahrump Valley","geographicExtents":"{\n \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n \"features\": [\n {\n \"type\": \"Feature\",\n \"properties\": {},\n \"geometry\": {\n \"coordinates\": [\n [\n [\n -116.25,\n 36.467\n ],\n [\n -116.25,\n 35.617\n ],\n [\n -115.517,\n 35.617\n ],\n [\n -115.517,\n 36.467\n ],\n [\n -116.25,\n 36.467\n ]\n ]\n ],\n \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n }\n }\n ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ac9e4b07f02db67ca1e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Malmberg, Glenn T.","contributorId":11196,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Malmberg","given":"Glenn","email":"","middleInitial":"T.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":144812,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":1000252,"text":"1000252 - 1967 - Diatoms as food of larval sea lampreys in a small tributary of northern Lake Michigan","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2016-02-22T09:22:41","indexId":"1000252","displayToPublicDate":"1967-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1967","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"seriesTitle":{"id":3624,"text":"Transactions of the American Fisheries Society","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":10}},"title":"Diatoms as food of larval sea lampreys in a small tributary of northern Lake Michigan","docAbstract":"The food and food preferences of sea lamprey ammocoetes have not been investigated.

The catch of planted lake trout by the commercial fishery was used to measure the success of stocking. Estimates of total returns were based on samples of 8.2 to 21.2% of the Wisconsin catches in 1955-62 and 36.4 to 46.8% of the Michigan catches in 1959-62. Marked lake trout were assigned to various plantings according to the fin mark, length of fish, readings of age from scales, and locations of capture. Estimated returns from Wisconsin plantings of 9-month-old lake trout varied from 2.1 to 6.4%. Wisconsin releases of 16-month-old fish yielded returns of 5.7 to 37.3%. Returns from plantings in Michigan were 0.3% for 9-month-old fish and 1.5 to 3.8% for 16-month-old fish. The ratios of the returns from plantings of 16-month-old fish to those of 9-month-old fish were 3.9:1 for Wisconsin releases and 6.7:1 for Michigan releases. Lake trout planted in Wisconsin generally survived better than those released in Michigan. Returns from fish planted at ages of 17 to 40 months in Michigan in 1958-59 were far greater than those from 16-month-old fish released in Michigan, but were not as high as from the most successful plantings of 16-month-old fish in Wisconsin. Lake trout released in 1960 from shore and from boats survived equally well. Average size of lake trout at release was more closely related to survival than any other factor. All except 1 of 10 highly successful releases were of fish larger than 22 per lb, and all 6 poor releases were of fish smaller than 34 per lb. Fish that ran 22 to 33 per lb survived only moderately well. A size of 17 to 20 fish per lb appears to be close to optimum. Abundance of native lake trout, American smelt (Osmerus mordax), and sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) all appeared to be unrelated to stocking success. The only apparent method of rapidly improving the success of stocking is to rear all lake trout to an average size of 17 to 20 per lb.

It is introduced into streams in which sea lampreys have spawned, to kill the larvae. These 'treatments' are carried out at intervals shorter than the larval phase of the sea lamprey's life cycle (about 4 to 7 years) to prevent movement of the metamorphosed parasitic lampreys into the lakes. Most of the streams which contain sea lamprey larvae also have valuable resident fish or serve as spawning and nursery areas for fish of the Great Lakes. These species must be protected from both the direct toxic effects of the control method and from indirect effects such as destruction of food supplies. Studies have shown that TFM is nontoxic to most species of fish when used at the concentrations that kill larval lampreys. Information on the effect of TFM on aquatic invertebrates is meager. Applegate et al. reported that TFM was not harmful to selected invertebrates which they included in simulated stream tests. They also stated that no harmful effects to invertebrates were observed during actual stream application. The variety of invertebrate species used in simulated stream tests was limited, and close observation of invertebrates under stream conditions is difficult. Therefore, the present laboratory bioassays were conducted to determine the toxicity of TFM to representatives of a number of groups of invertebrates.

The accessory tails were always postanal and smaller than the normal tail. The point of origin varied; the extra tails occurred on dorsal, ventral, or lateral surfaces. Some of the extra tails were misshaped and curled, but others were normal in shape and pigment pattern. Other abnormalities in larval sea lampreys were malformed or twisted tails and bodies. The cause of the structural abnormalities is unknown. The presence of extra caudal fins could be genetically controlled, or be due to partial amputation or injury followed by abnormal regeneration. Few if any lampreys with structural abnormalities live to sexual maturity.","language":"English","publisher":"American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists (ASIH)","doi":"10.2307/1442255","usgsCitation":"Manion, P.J., 1967, Morphological abnormalities among lampreys: Copeia, v. 1967, no. 3, p. 680-681, https://doi.org/10.2307/1442255.","productDescription":"2 p.","startPage":"680","endPage":"681","numberOfPages":"2","costCenters":[{"id":324,"text":"Great Lakes Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":132838,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"1967","issue":"3","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b02e4b07f02db698cb9","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Manion, Patrick J.","contributorId":99080,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Manion","given":"Patrick","email":"","middleInitial":"J.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":308296,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":1013734,"text":"1013734 - 1967 - An unusual case of fish disease caused by Ophyroglena sp","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2023-11-08T23:00:30.707835","indexId":"1013734","displayToPublicDate":"1967-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1967","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"seriesTitle":{"id":1140,"text":"Bulletin of the Wildlife Disease Association","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":10}},"title":"An unusual case of fish disease caused by Ophyroglena sp","docAbstract":"No abstract available.

Previous investigators were unable to study the binary MgSO4CaSO4 system and the adjacent area in the ternary system because of the decomposition of MgSO4 and CaSO4 at high temperatures. This problem was partly overcome by a novel sealed-tube quenching method, by hydrothermal synthesis, and by long-time heating in the solidus. As a result of this study, we found: (1) a new compound, CaSO4·3MgSO4 (m.p. 1201°C) with a field extending into the ternary system; (2) a high temperature form of MgSO4 with a sluggishly reversible inversion. An X-ray diffraction pattern for this polymorphic form is given; (3) the inversion of β-CaSO4 (anhydrite) to α-CaSO4 at 1195°C, in agreement with grahmann; (1) (4) the melting point of MgSO4 is 1136°C and that of CaSO4 is 1462°C (using sealed tube methods to prevent decomposition of the sulphates); (5) calcium langbeinite (K2SO4·2CaSO4) is the only compound in the K2SO4CaSO4 binary system. This resolved discrepancies in the results of previous investigators; (6) a continuous solid solution series between congruently melting K2SOP4·2MgSO4 (langbeinite) and incongruently melting K2SO4·2CaSO4 (calcium langbeinite); (7) the liquidus in the ternary system consists of primary phase fields of K2SO4, MgSO4, CaSO4, langbeinite-calcium langbeinite solid solution, and CaSO4·3MgSO4. The CaSO4 field extends over a large portion of the system. Previously reported fields for the compounds (K2SO4·MgSO4·nCaSO4), K2SO4·3CaSO4 and K2SO4·CaSO4 were not found; (8) a minimum in the ternary system at: 740°C, 25% MgSO4, 6% CaSO4, 69% K2SO4; and ternary eutectics at 882°C, 49% MgSO4, 19% CaSO4, 32% K2SO4; and 880°, 67·5% MgSO4, 5% CaSO4, 27·5% K2SO4.

New paleomagnetic and potassium-argon dating measurements have been made of basalt flows from Nunivak Island, Alaska, with the following results. (1) The best estimate of the age of the Brunhes/Matuyama polarity epoch boundary is found to be 0.694 m.y. (2) The best estimate of the age of the Gauss/Gilbert boundary is 3.32 m.y. (3) Three normally magnetized flows with ages from 0.93 to 0.88 m.y. are in accord with previous estimates of the age and duration of the Jaramillo normal event. (4) One normally magnetized flow with an age of 1.65 ± 0.09 m.y. supplies additional evidence for the Gilsá normal event. (5) Two new normal events are identified within the Gilbert reversed epoch, the “Cochiti normal event” with an age of 3.7 m.y. and the “Nunivak normal event” with an age of 4.1 m.y.
