This report summarizes and makes available to other investigators the measured hydraulic data collected during a series of experiments designed to study the effect of patterned bed roughness on steady and unsteady open-channel flow. The patterned effect of the roughness was obtained by clear-cut mowing of designated areas of an...

Ground-water data for the Baker County-northern Malheur area, Oregon, are tabulated for the Bureau of Land Management. The data include well and spring records, a well-location map, drillers' logs of wells, observation-well hydrographs, and chemical analyses of ground-water samples. The reported yields of wells and springs in the area ranged...

Data are presented on the quantitative relations between water chemistry and phytoplankton productivity in San Francisco Bay between March 1976 and July 1977. Spatial distributions are listed for: salinity, temperature, transmission, chlorophyll-a, fluorescence, dissolved oxygen, orthophosphate, nitrate + nitrite, nitrite, ammonia, particulate organic carbon, alkalinity, pH, pCO2, suspended sediment and...

Water samples from wells in Nassau and Suffolk Counties were analyzed for chloride and nitrate. Two samples were collected at each well; one was analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey, the other by a laboratory in the county from which the sample was taken. Results were compared statistically by paired-sample...

These summaries of references are designed to aid in library research on metallic and nonmetallic (other than mineral fuels and construction materials) mineral occurrences in the Valdez quadrangle, Alaska. All references to most reports of the Geological Survey, the U.S. Bureau of Mines, and the State of Alaska Division of...

A number of efficient numerical computer algorithms are incorporated into a general program called EMCUPL, which calculates the electromagnetic (EM) coupling between two straight wires on the surface of a multilayered half space. Each layer has an isotropic conductivity which may be either real or complex. A second computer program,...

The widespread distribution of Tertiary volcanic rocks in south-central Arizona is controlled in part by prevolcanic structures along which volcanic vents were localized. Volcanic rocks in the Mineral Mountain and Teapot Mountain quadrangles mark the site of a major northwest-trending structural hingeline. This hingeline divides an older Precambrian X terrane...

Radiocarbon dating has proved to be a useful tool for the correlation of events and their timing during the Quaternary. In the Hawaiian Islands, the application of this technique is providing a chronology of the geologic history that will serve as a framework for studies of volcanologic and related hazards,...

Certain Ordovician sandstones of the Midwestern States were investigated for the purpose of determining the range in size of constituent sand grains. Although many size analyses of the same formations have been reported in the literature, the methods of sample collection, preparation, and sieving were not uniform, and the results...

A series of single channel seismic reflection profiles were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey aboard the R.V. FAY from August 10, 1976 through September 7, 1976 during cruises FAY 20 and FAY 21. The chief scientist was, Dr. Kim D. Klitgord, U.S. Geological Survey, Woods Hole, MA 02543. The...

Available are 377km of mini sparker data collected during the September 1977 cruise of the research vessel Annandale over the Baltimore Canyon Trough area.The prime purpose of the cruise was to obtain vibracores at selected locations across the Continental Shelf. The samples and seismic profiles were collected to study the...
