The Boulder Creek Batholith, Front Range, Colorado
Dolores J. Gable
1980, Professional Paper 1101
The Boulder Creek batholith is the best known of several large Precambrian batholiths of similar rock composition that crop out across central Colorado. The rocks in the batholith belong to the calc-alkaline series and range in composition from granodiorite through quartz diorite (tonalite) to gneissic aplite. Two rock types dominate':...
A review and evaluation of alternatives for updating U.S. Geological Survey land use and land cover maps
Valerie A. Milazzo
1980, Circular 826
Since 1974, the U.S. Geological Survey has been engaged in a nationwide program of baseline mapping of land use and land cover and associated data at a scale of 1:250,000. As l:100,000-scale bases have become available, they have been used for mapping certain areas and for special applications. These two...
Petroleum-resource appraisal and discovery rate forecasting in partially explored regions
Lawrence J. Drew, J.H. Schuenemeyer, David H. Root, E. D. Attanasi
1980, Professional Paper 1138-A-C
PART A: A model of the discovery process can be used to predict the size distribution of future petroleum discoveries in partially explored basins. The parameters of the model are estimated directly from the historical drilling record, rather than being determined by assumptions or analogies. The model is based on...

Conflict resolution in railroad right-of-way disputes; Columbia, Missouri, and Douglas County, Nebraska
Katherine Fitzpatrick-Lins, J.A. McGlennon, G.F. Tiedt
1980, Open-File Report 80-874
The environmental mediation process has been used to avoid potential disputes and to resolve conflicts once an impasse has been reached. One successful case of dispute avoidance was in the conversion of an abandoned railroad right-of-way to a linear park in Columbia, Missouri. The potential disputes in this case were...

Water-resources investigations of the U.S. Geological Survey, New Mexico District, fiscal year 1979
R.R. White, W.K. Dein
1980, Open-File Report 80-408
This is the second of an annual series of reports in which the program of the New Mexico District, U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, is summarized. This report should be useful to cooperating agencies and to the users of water data in that it summarizes and gives the status...

1980, Open-File Report 80-2019
The Middle and (or) Late Triassic Nikolai Greenstone, part of the allochthonous terrane of Wrangellia, is typically altered and locally metamorphosed to prehnite-pumpellyite facies with chlorite and epidote as the most common secondary minerals. Intrinsic copper content averages 155 ppm, and two types of concentrations of copper in the Nikolai...

Technique for estimating magnitude and frequency of floods in Maryland
David H. Carpenter
1980, Open-File Report 80-1016
A method is presented for estimating flood magnitudes for natural drainage basins without urban development or regulated flow. The method was developed by multiple-regression techniques and applies to floods with recurrence intervals from 2 to 100 years.The State is divided into three regions, and sets of equations for calculating peak...

Ground-water availability and water quality in Farmington, Connecticut
David L. Mazzaferro
1980, Open-File Report 80-751
The strataified-drift aquifer in Farmington, Conn., is capable of yielding large amounts of water to individual wells. About 14 square miles of Farmington is underlain by stratified-drift deposits which, in places, are more than 450 feet thick. The most productive deposits are found in the Farmington River valley, from Unionville...
