Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1980
Fred Liscum, J.S. Hutchison, J.P. Bruchmiller, L.S. Walther
1983, Open-File Report 83-264
Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. Studies are now in progress in Austin, and Houston. Studies have been completed in the Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio areas. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Houston, began studies in...
Hydrogeology for land-use planning: the Peters Creek area, Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska
Jilann O. Brunett, Michael Lee
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4120
Wells currently provide all water supplies in the area. Most wells obtain enough water for individual household needs from unconsolidated, principally glacial and glacioalluvial deposits. In some places, however, wells must be drilled into the underlying bedrock to obtain adequate supplies. It may be possible to develop small community supplies--for...
Potentiometric surface of the Floridan Aquifer and its use in management of water resources, St. Johns River Water Management District, Florida
Harry George Rodis, D.A. Munch
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4176
The Floridan aquifer supplies most of the fresh groundwater for municipal, industrial, and agricultural uses within the 12,400 sq mi St. Johns River Water Management District. Because of the growing demand for water and the variation in rainfall, resource managers need timely information on short-term and long-term changes in the...
Studies in Tertiary stratigraphy of the California Coast Ranges
Earl E. Brabb, editor(s)
1983, Professional Paper 1213
The correlation of rocks of Paleogene age in California with those in Europe has had a long and complex history that can only be highlighted here. Kleinpell (1938, p. 168-181), in his classic work defining Miocene benthic1 foraminiferal stages of California, attempted to correlate faunas of California with those of...
Evidence of tectonic stability along the middle Columbia River, Washington, in Quaternary time
William Henry Hays, Robert L. Schuster
1983, Open-File Report 83-365
Observations of outcrops and Pleistocene-age surfaces along the Columbia River, between Priest Rapids Dam and Richland, Washington, provide evidence for recent tectonic stability that may be significant to planning of earthquake-sensitive engineered structures in the vicinity. Apparent continuity of layering in the Yakima Basalt (Miocene), Ringold Formation (Pliocene), and calcrete...
Middle Tertiary continental rift and evolution of the Red Sea in southwestern Saudi Arabia
Dwight Lyman Schmidt, Donald G. Hadley, Glen F. Brown
1983, Open-File Report 83-641
Middle Tertiary rift volcanism in a continental-rift valley in the Arabian-Nubian Shield was the first surface expression of active mantle convection beneath an axis that was to become the Red Sea. Investigation of the coastal plain of southwestern Saudi Arabia suggests that the rift valley was filled with basaltic and...
Summary of Tertiary investigations in western Saudi Arabia, current work by the U.S. Geological Survey and recommended future studies
Donald G. Hadley, Dwight Lyman Schmidt, Robert Griffin Coleman
1983, Open-File Report 83-487
In 1936, geologic work related to the Tertiary System in western Saudi Arabia began with a study of the Umm Gerad barite deposit by K. S. Twitchell. In 1944, a study focusing specifically on Tertiary rocks was conducted by Steineke and others near Jiddah. Small-scale mapping of Tertiary sequences began...
Three-dimensional digital-computer model of the principal ground-water reservoir of the Sevier Desert, Utah
W. F. Holmes
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4179
The principal ground-water reservoir in part of the Sevier Desert, Utah was modeled using a three-dimensional finite-difference model. The model was calibrated by comparing computed and observed water-level measurements in 1952, simulating results of aquifer tests, and simulating ground-water withdrawals during 1952-81 and comparing computed water-level changes during 1952-82 to...
