Aquifers that yield small amounts of water to wells include fractured crystalline rock at or near surface in the eastern part of the area, sandstone overlying crystalline rock in the southern and western...
Effects of land use and retention practices on sediment yields in the Stony Brook basin, New Jersey
Lawrence J. Mansue, Peter W. Anderson
1974, Water Supply Paper 1798-L
The average annual rate of suspended-sediment discharge of the Stony Brook at Princeton, N.J. (44.5 square miles) is about 8,800 tons, or 200 tons per square mile. Annual yields within the basin, which is in the Piedmont Lowlands section of the Piedmont physiographic province in west-central New Jersey, range from...
Analog model study of the ground-water basin of the Upper Coachella Valley, California
Stephen J. Tyley
1974, Water Supply Paper 2027
An analog model of the ground-water basin of the upper Coachella Valley was constructed to determine the effects of imported water on ground-water levels. The model was considered verified when the ground-water levels generated by the model approximated the historical change in water levels of the ground-water basin caused by...

Proposed hydrologic analyses of streamflow for Brazil
Henry Chiles Riggs
1974, Open-File Report 74-328
The objective of my assignment was to recommend what hydrologic analyses might be made using the records of stream discharge soon to be available at the gaging stations in Brazil. To attain this objective I (1) examined the streamflow records in part of the Rio Jacui basin in the state...
Long term flow of the Truckee River in California and Nevada
Howard Frederick Matthai
1974, Open-File Report 74-213
The Office of the Solicitor, Department of the Interior, requested the Geological Survey to evaluate the reliability of streamflow records in the Truckee River basin and to determine the long-term average annual runoff.The reliability of streamflow records was evaluated by comparisons between pairs of records at six locations along the...

This report is a brief description of the geology of the Solok quadrangle in West Sumatra. It is based on work done by the writer from April 27 to October 14, 1971, as part of the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) Cooperative Project with the Geological Survey of Indonesia (GSI)....
Concentration and mineralogical residence of elements in rich oil shales of the Green River Formation, Piceance Creek Basin, Colorado, and the Uinta Basin, Utah; a preliminary report
George A. Desborough, Janet K. Pitman, Claude Huffman Jr.
1974, Open-File Report 74-77
Ten core samples of two rich oil-shale beds from the Parachute Creek Member of the Eocene Green River Formation, Piceance Creek basin, Colorado, and Uinta Basin, Utah, were analyzed for 34 major, minor, and trace elements. For 23 of these elements, principal mineralogical residence is established or suggested. Such studies...
