Geologic and geophysical investigations of Climax Stock intrusive, Nevada
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1983, Open-File Report 83-377
The Climax stock is a composite granitic intrusive of Cretaceous age, composed of quartz monzonite and granodiorite, which intrudes rocks of Paleozoic and Precambrian age. Tertiary volcanic rocks, consisting of ashflow and ash-fall tuffs, and tuffaceous sedimentary rocks overlie the sedimentary rocks and the stock. Erosion has removed much of...

Geohydrology and water resources of the Papago Farms-Great Plain area, Papago Indian Reservation, Arizona, and the upper Rio Sonoyta area, Sonora, Mexico
K.J. Hollett
1983, Open-File Report 83-774
The Papago Farms-Great Plain and upper Rio Sonoyta study area includes about 490 square miles in south-central Arizona and north-central Sonora, Mexico. In the study area 23,700 acre-feet of ground water from the basin-fill deposits was used to irrigate more than 5,000 acres in 1981. Surface water is not a...

Origin, distribution, and rapid removal of hydrothermally formed clay at Mount Baker, Washington
David Frank
1983, Professional Paper 1022-E
Clay minerals are locally abundant in two hydrothermal areas at Mount Baker-Sherman Crater and the Dorr Fumarole Field. The silt- and clay-size fractions of volcanic debris that is undergoing alteration at and near the ground surface around areas of current fumarolic activity in Sherman Crater are largely dominated by alunite...
Landslide investigations, southern Cianjur Regency, West Java Province, Indonesia; a progress report
John R. Ege
1983, Open-File Report 83-597
Two landslide-monitoring sites have been established for a minimum 2-year investigation near the villages of Pasirpari and Cibacang in southern Cianjur Regency, West Java, Indonesia. Surveyed-in lines will measure amounts of surface movement and tilt, borings that produced exploratory cores now serve as slip-surface detectors and open-pipe piezometers, and rain...
Ground-water-use trends in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, Minnesota, 1880-1980
M.A. Horn
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4033
Detailed ground-water-use information from 1880 to 1980 has been collected and analyzed for the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Interpretation of historic water-use data was required to help water-resource planners and managers assess future trends in water use. Data were also needed for three computer-simulation models of ground-water flow being developed...
Computer routines for probability distributions, random numbers, and related functions
W. Kirby
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4257
Use of previously coded and tested subroutines simplifies and speeds up program development and testing. This report presents routines that can be used to calculate various probability distributions and other functions of importance in statistical hydrology. The routines are designed as general-purpose Fortran subroutines and functions to be called from...
Conveyance characteristics of the Nueces River, Cotulla to Simmons, Texas
Bernard C. Massey, William E. Reeves
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4004
Analysis of discharge hydrographs for streamflow-gaging stations on the Nueces River at Cotulla, Tilden, and Simmons indicate that significant water losses occur along the 108-mile reach from Cotulla to Simmon during storm-runoff periods. Computed losses along the 83-mile reach from Cotulla to Tilden for 15 storm periods range from 32...

Appraisal of water-quality conditions, lower Black River, Windsor County, Vermont
K. W. Toppin
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4116
Six hydroelectric power dams are planned along a 22-mile reach of the lower Black River in southeastern Windsor County, Vermont. Data were collected at 10 stations, during water years 1977-81, to appraise quality conditions before construction. Average specific conductance of Black River is 101 micromhos indicating low concentrations of dissolved...
Flood estimates for ungaged streams in Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, Montana
R. J. Omang, Charles Parrett, J. A. Hull
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4147
Estimates of 100-year discharges were made at 59 sites in Glacier National Park and 21 sites in Yellowstone National Park to assist the National Park Services in quantifying stream inflow and outflow in the Parks. The estimates were made using regression equations previously developed for Montana. The resulting 100-year discharges...
