Map showing landslides in California that have caused fatalities or at least $1,000,000 in damages from 1906 to 1984
Fred Taylor, E. E. Brabb
1986, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1867
Understanding where landslide processes in California have been most severe is helpful in determining priorities for landslide mapping, mitigation measures, and preparedness planning. Although a few studies of landslide damage and fatalities have been published (see sources of data 12, 17, 34, 36, 40), and many more reports mention landslide...
Water resources data for Mississippi, water year 1984
E.J. Tharpe, F. Morris, W. T. Oakley
1986, Water Data Report MS-84-1
Water resources data for the 1987 water year for Mississippi consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground-water wells. This report contains records of water discharge at 78 gaging stations; stage...
Hydrogeology of the surficial and intermediate aquifers of central Sarasota County, Florida
A. D. Duerr, R. M. Wolansky
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4068
The geohydrologic units underlying a 300 sq mi area in central Sarasota County, Florida, consist of the surficial aquifer, intermediate aquifers (Tamiami-upper Hawthorn and lower Hawthorn-upper Tampa aquifers) and confining units, the Floridan aquifer system, and the sub-Floridan confining unit. The saturated thickness of the surficial aquifer ranges from about...
Hydrogeology and leachate movement near two chemical-waste sites in Oswego County, New York
H. R. Anderson, Todd S. Miller
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4148
Forty-five observation wells and test holes were installed at two chemical waste disposal sites in Oswego County, New York, to evaluate the hydrogeologic conditions and the rate and direction of leachate migration. At the site near Oswego groundwater moves northward at an average velocity of 0.4 ft/day through unconsolidated glacial...
Occurrence and availability of ground water in the Athens region, northeastern Georgia
D. B. Radtke, C.W. Cressler, H.A. Perlman, H.E. Blanchard Jr., K.W. McFadden, Rebekah Brooks
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4075
A study was conducted to assess the occurrence and availability of groundwater in the crystalline rocks of the Piedmont area in northeastern Georgia and to determine whether groundwater is a viable alternative or supplemental source for industrial, public and private supplies. The area is underlain by a variety of metamorphic...
Water resources of Weston County, Wyoming
M.E. Lowry, W. J. Head, J.G. Rankl, J.F. Busby
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4079
Surface water is scarce in Weston County, Wyoming. Groundwater has been developed from rocks ranging in age from Mississippian to Holocene. Adequate supplies for domestic or stock use can be developed from wells generally less than 1,000 ft deep, except in the area underlain by a thick sequence of predominantly...
Digital data base of lakes on the North Slope, Alaska
Kim-Marie Walker, James York, Dennis Murphy, C. E. Sloan
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4143
The National Mapping Division and Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey have produced a digital data base of approximately 23,330 lakes on the North Slope of Alaska. The inventoried region consists of the area north of the 69th parallel and is composed of sixteen 1° x 3° quadrangles....
Flow testing of the Newberry 2 research drillhole, Newberry volcano, Oregon
S. E. Ingebritsen, W.W. Carothers, Robert H. Mariner, J.S. Gudmundsson, E.A. Sammel
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4133
A 20 hour flow test of the Newberry 2 research drillhole at Newberry Volcano produced about 33,000 kilograms of fluid. The flow rate declined from about 0.8 kilograms per sec to less than 0.3 kilograms per sec during the course of the test. The mass ratio of liquid water to...
Preliminary map showing the thickness of glacial deposits in Ohio
D. R. Soller
1986, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1862
This map was compiled as part of a U.S. Geological Survey project to portray the character and thickness of glacial deposits east of the Rocky Mountains. It is a preliminary map, compiled at a scale of 1:250,000 from sources of differing type and quality (fig. I, table 1). County drift-thickness...
Techniques for estimating flood-peak discharges from urban basins in Missouri
L.D. Becker
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4322
Techniques are defined for estimating the magnitude and frequency of future flood peak discharges of rainfall-induced runoff from small urban basins in Missouri. These techniques were developed from an initial analysis of flood records of 96 gaged sites in Missouri and adjacent states. Final regression equations are based on a...
International strategic minerals inventory summary report: platinum-group metals
David M. Sutphin, Norman J. Page
1986, Circular 930-E
Major world resources of platinum-group metals are described in this summary report of information in the International Strategic Minerals Inventory {ISMI}. ISMI is a cooperative data-collection effort of earth-science and mineral-resource agencies in Australia, Canada, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Republic of South Africa, and the United States of...
Water resources data, Montana, water year 1985; Volume 1. Hudson Bay Basin, Missouri River Basin
R.R. Shields, J. R. Knapton, M. K. White, T.M. Brosten, M.L. Kasman
1986, Water Data Report MT-85-1
The Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with State and other Federal agencies, obtain a large amount of data pertaining to the water resources of Montana each water year. These data, accumulated during many water years, constitute a valuable data base for developing an improved under-standing...
