Short-range vertical variation in organic carbon, carbonate carbon, total sulfur contents and Munsell color values in a core from the Upper Pennsylvanian Stark Shale Member of the Dennis Limestone, Wabaunsee County, Kansas
M.R. Stanton, Joel S. Leventhal, Joseph R. Hatch
1983, Open-File Report 83-315
Organic carbon, total sulfur, carbonate carbon and Munsell color value were determined for 21 successive samples from a 53-cm-thick section of drill core. These samples are from the Stark Shale Member of the Dennis Limestone of Upper Pennsylvanian age, Wabaunsee County, Kansas. The data confirm previous results (Hosterman and Whitlow,...
Regional geohydrology of the northern Louisiana salt-dome basin, part IV, hydraulic characteristics of the Wilcox-Carrizo aquifer
G.N. Ryals
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4132
The Wilcox Group of Paleocene-Eocence age and the Carrizo Sand of Eocene age compose the Wilcox-Carrizo aquifer. Results of 25 aquifer tests and permeability determinations from 43 sidewall cores show that the hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer are variable. Studies of the Carrizo showed that hydraulic conductivity increased as sand-bed...

Results of a test well in the Nanafalia Formation near Melvin, Choctaw County, Alabama
M. E. Davis, A.K. Sparkes, B.S. Peacock
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4108
Test drilling at Melvin, Choctaw County, Alabama, discloses that the Nanafalia Formation (Paleocene) contains freshwater in sand at a distance of 25 miles downdip from the outcrop area. A nearby fault on the north side of Gilberttown-Pickens fault zone does not appear to affect either the head or the water...
Rock property measurements and analysis of selected igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks from worldwide localities
Gordon R. Johnson
1983, Open-File Report 83-736
Dry bulk density and grain density measurements were made on 182 samples of igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks from various world-wide localities. Total porosity values and both water-accessible and helium-accessible porosities were calculated from the density data. Magnetic susceptibility measurements were made on the solid samples and permeability and streaming...
Ground-water data for Michigan 1982

1983, Open-File Report 83-753
Water levels, locations, depths, and aquifers tapped are given for 117 observation wells. Tabulated data include extremes of water levels for 1982 and for the period of record, pumpage of most major ground-water users in the State, and quality data on selected wells. The largest reported user of ground-water, the...

Evaluation of the effects of Lake Audubon on ground- and surface-water levels in the Lake Nettie area, eastern McLean County, North Dakota
C. A. Armstrong
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4242
Water logging and flooding of some roads and agricultural lands have become a problem in the Lake Nettie area of eastern McLean County. Part of the flooding is caused by the raising of Lake Audubon about 13 feet from an elevation of about 1,835 feet to 1,848 feet and its...

Strata-bound, silver-bearing iron, lead, and zinc sulfide deposits in Silurian and Ordovician rocks of allochthonous terranes, Nevada and northern Mexico
Keith Brindley Ketner
1983, Open-File Report 83-792
Allochthonous terranes in northern Nevada contain strata-bound sulfide deposits at two horizons in Silurian and Ordovician siliceous sedimentary rocks. The most intensively mineralized horizon and most extensive deposit is at the base of the Silurian. Another less extensive deposit is in the lower Middle Ordovician. Spectrographic analyses of gossan from...
MAGPOLY; a modification of a three-dimensional magnetic modelling program
Richard H. Godson
1983, Open-File Report 83-345
The three-dimensional magnetic modelling program of Donald Plouff (Plouff, 1975) has been made operational on a Honeywell Multics 68/80 computer. Modifications were made to input and output procedures to make the program compatible with U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) standard geophysical input and output formats....

Hydrology of the Jasper (Miocene) Aquifer in the Southeast Texas coastal plain
E.T. Baker
1983, Open-File Report 83-677
The Jasper (Miocene) aquifer is one of several important hydrologic units in the Gulf Coastal Plain. Because the Jasper aquifer underlies shallower aquifers in many areas, regional water withdrawals from the Jasper are not significant; however, it is capable of yielding 3,000 gallons per minute (200 liters per second) or...
