Water supply at Painted Canyon Overlook, Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit), southwestern North Dakota
M.G. Croft
1974, Open-File Report 74-136
A 1,930-foot (588-metre) water-supply well was constructed at the Painted Canyon Overlook, Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit), southwestern North Dakota. Aquifers underlying the site are in rocks of Late Cretaceous and Tertiary age. These rocks have an aggreqate thickness of about 2,000 feet (610 metres). The well screen...
Atlantic OCS resource and leasing potential
Richard Q. Foote, Robert E. Mattick, John Charles Behrendt
1974, Open-File Report 74-348
Thick marine sedimentary sections and geologic structures favorable for the accumulation of petroleum are indicated in Georges Bank basin, the Baltimore Canyon trough, and the Southeast Georgia embayment. Undiscovered recoverable resources of petroleum on the Atlantic OCS are estimated to be 10 billion to 20 billion barrels of oil and...
Hydrology of the Dismal Swamp, Virginia-North Carolina
William Francis Lichtler, Patrick Neil Walker
1974, Open-File Report 74-39
The Dismal Swamp, on the border between eastern Virginia and North Carolina is one of the few remaining large (approximately 210,000 acres) areas of wet wilderness in the eastern United States. There has been much speculation concerning the hydrologic conditions that led to the formation of the swamp.Oaks and Coch...
Analog-model studies of ground-water hydrology in the Houston District, Texas
Donald G. Jorgensen
1974, Open-File Report 74-113
The major water-bearing units in the Houston district are the Chicot and the Evangeline aquifers. The Chicot aquifer overlies the Evangeline aquifer, which is underlain by the Burkeville confining layer. Both aquifers consist of unconsolidated and discontinuous layers of sand and clay that dip toward the Gulf of Mexico. Heavy...
Hydrologic data of the Hoosic River basin, Massachusetts
Bruce P. Hansen, Frederick B. Gay, L.G. Toler
1974, Open-File Report 74-368
The Hoosic River has its headwaters in northwestern Massachusetts and southern Vermont and flows northwestward through southern Vermont into New York, where it is tributary to the Hudson River. Upstream from the Massachusetts State line the Hoosic River drains a total of 205 mi2 (531 km2) of which 164 mi2...
A special planning technique for stream-aquifer systems
C.T. Jenkins, O. James Taylor
1974, Open-File Report 74-242
The potential effects of water-management plans on stream-aquifer systems in several countries have been simulated using electric-analog or digital-computer models. Many of the electric-analog models require large amounts of hardware preparation for each problem to be solved and some become so bulky that they present serious space and access problems....
Volcanic hazards on the Island of Hawaii
Donal Ray Mullineaux, Donald W. Peterson
1974, Open-File Report 74-239
Volcanic hazards on the Island of Hawaii have been determined to be chiefly products of eruptions: lava flows, falling fragments, gases, and particle-and-gas clouds. Falling fragments and particle-and-gas clouds can be substantial hazards to life, but they are relatively rare. Lava flows are the chief hazard to property; they are...
East African seminar/workshop trip report
Morris Deutsch
1974, Open-File Report 74-193
Reports activities of U.S.G.S project leader and officer of AID sponsor, in Kenya, on trip made for preparation of plans for conduct of a East Africa Seminar/Workshop on applications of remote sensing and especially ERTS-1 data to resources analysis and management. Activities included orientation of officials of Kenyan agencies responsible...
First EROS/AID International Course on remote sensing
Raymond W. Fary
1974, Open-File Report 74-195
The First International Training Course on Remote Sensing held at the Earth Resources Observations Systems (EROS) Data Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, was sponsored by the Agency for International Development (AID), U.S. Department of State, from June 4 to 27, 1973. This course was conducted by the U.S. Geological...
Flashing flow in hot water geothermal wells
Manuel Nathenson
1974, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (2) 743-751
The production characteristics of hot-water geothermal wells which flash to steam-water mixtures in the cased part of the hole were-analyzed. The flashing flow is assumed to be isenthalpic and, for purposes of calculating pressure drop, a finely dispersed mixture of equal average velocity. Water flow in the aquifer is treated...
The diorite at West Warren, south-central Massachusetts
John S. Pomeroy
1974, Open-File Report 74-138
Follated, syntectonic, concordant intrusive bodies of mostly diorite and meladiorite with less abundant quartz diorite and norite have been mapped in the West Warren area of south-central Massachusetts. The rocks of the pluton range from a medium colored phase of diorite and quartz diorite to a dark colored phase of...
