1980, Open-File Report 80-209
The Bureau of Land Management requested on May 3, 1979 that the U.S. Geological Survey determine the base (100-year) flood-plain limits at three sites (fig. 1) along the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System Highway (Haul Road) between the Yukon River and Prudhoe Bay in order to issue land-use permits. The Alaska Department...

An experiment to test hole-to-hole resistivity measurements for locating mine openings in coal seams
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James Henry Scott
1980, Open-File Report 80-895
Hole-to-hole resistivity measurements can be useful for interpreting resistivity anomalies that are located too far away from the borehole to be detected with conventional well logging probes. Hole-to-hole direct current resistivity measurements are shown in this study to be useful for detecting mine openings in a coal seam....

Side-scan sonograph data from eastern Rhode Island Sound and Vineyard Sound, Massachusetts
Charles J. O’Hara
1980, Open-File Report 80-283
Two hundred twenty-four kilometers of closely spaced side-scan sonograph data have been collected from eastern Rhode Island Sound and Vineyard Sound, Mass., by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the New England Division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. These data were obtained during the August 1976 cruise...

Selected list of references to modern and ancient alluvial fan deposits
Tor Helge Nilsen, Thomas E. Moore
1980, Open-File Report 80-658
The following list of references on modern and ancient alluvial fan deposits has been compiled from an extensive review of the geologic literature. The information was collected as part of the process of preparing a summary paper on alluvial fan deposits for a memoir of the American Association of Petroleum...
A practical Lagrangian transport model
Harvey E. Jobson
1980, Open-File Report 80-206
An unconditionally stable and practical transport model for use in upland streams and rivers has been developed and verified. Basing the model on the Lagrangian, rather than the Eulerian, reference frame greatly reduces the numerical problems associated with solving the advective terms of the convective-diffusion equation. The model contains almost...

Response arrays and sensitivity coefficients for standard configurations of the USGS short-period telemetered seismic system
Jerry P. Eaton
1980, Open-File Report 80-316
Stewart and O'Neill (1) have described the USGS short-period telemetered seismic system in terms of its component parts and have written a computer program (RESPONSE) for calculating the response of the system in its various configurations....
Chemical analyses for selected wells in San Joaquin County and part of Contra Costa County, California
Gail L. Keeter
1980, Open-File Report 80-420
The study area of this report includes the eastern valley area of Contra Costa County and all of San Joaquin County, an area of approximately 1,600 square miles in the northern part of the San Joaquin Valley, Calif. Between December 1977 and December 1978, 1,489 wells were selectively canvassed. During...
Analysis of borehole geophysical data in an evaporite sequence at Salt Valley, Utah
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James H. Scott, Robert J. Hite
1980, Open-File Report 80-525
Interpretation of the lithology of an interbed sequence (thin-bedded sediments between thick layers of salt) is often difficult due to the presence of dolomitic sandstones and halite inclusions. The most useful well logging measurements in an evaporite sequence are gamma-ray, neutron-neutron, density, and acoustic velocity. The high resistivity of salt...
