A single-degree-of-freedom model for non-linear soil amplification
Mustafa Ozder Erdik
1979, Open-File Report 79-592
For proper understanding of soil behavior during earthquakes and assessment of a realistic surface motion, studies of the large-strain dynamic response of non-linear hysteretic soil systems are indispensable. Most of the presently available studies are based on the assumption that the response of a soil deposit is mainly due to...
Radium and uranium concentrations and associated hydrogeochemistry in ground water in southwestern Pueblo County, Colorado
J. Karen Felmlee, Robert Allen Cadigan
1979, Open-File Report 79-974
Radium and uranium concentrations in water from 37 wells tapping the aquifer system of the Dakota Sandstone and Purgatoire Formation in southwestern Pueblo County, Colorado, have a wide range of values and define several areas of high radioactivity in the ground water. Radium ranges from 0.3 to 420 picocuries per...
Water-quality data from a landfill, Pinellas County, Florida, May 1975-October 1977
Mario Fernandez
1979, Open-File Report 78-822
Ground water in and near a proposed landfill site can become contaminated by leachates from the fill material. Realizing that potential, Pinellas County entered into a cooperative investigation with the U.S. Geological Survey to determine background water-quality conditions, and to evaluate the potential effects of landfill leachate on the quality...
Seismicity of the Tihamat-Asir region, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Habib M. Merghelani
1979, Open-File Report 79-1191
Knowledge of the seismicity of the west coast of Saudi Arabia is vitally important to the Kingdom. The eastern margin of the Red Sea, which includes all of the west coast of Saudi Arabia, is possibly cut by transform faults that may be capable of producing earthquakes large enough to...
Progress in remote sensing as it applies to missions of Committee for Coordination of Joint Prospecting for Mineral Resources in Asian Offshore Areas
William A. Fischer
1979, Open-File Report 79-598
The major thrusts of investigations of the use of space data for understanding our Earth continue to focus on the land and near-shore environments. This is expectable; people live on the land, draw most of their resources from the land or near-shore areas, and in these areas environmental degradation or...
Airborne gamma-ray spectrometry survey of the Jabal Sayid area, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Vincent J. Flanigan, James A. Pitkin
1979, Open-File Report 79-672
An airborne gamma-ray spectrometer survey covering 2750 km2 in the Jabal Sayid area, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, was flown to measure anomalous concentrations of potassium in a known mineral belt. No anomalies were detected over the Jabal Sayid copper prospect, although part of the prospect is within a radioactive, high-dispersion...
A slingram survey on the Nevada Test Site: part of an integrated geologic geophysical study of site evaluation for nuclear waste disposal
Vincent J. Flanigan
1979, Open-File Report 79-277
A slingram geophysical survey was made in early 1978 as part of the integrated geologlcal-geophysical study aimed at evaluating the Eleana Formation as a possible repository for nuclear waste. The slingram data were taken over an alluvial fan and pediments along the eastern flank of Syncline Ridge about 45 km...
Seismic, magnetic, and geotechnical properties of a landslide and clinker deposits, Powder River basin, Wyoming and Montana
C.H. Miller
1979, Open-File Report 79-952
Exploitation of vast coal and other resources in the Powder River Basin has caused recent, rapid increases in population and in commercial and residential development and has prompted land utilization studies. Two aspects of land utilization were studied for this report: (1) the seismic and geotechnical properties of a landslide...
Water-quality data for the Hanna and Carbon basins, Wyoming
Pamela B. Freudenthal
1979, Open-File Report 79-1277
Water-quality data for the Hanna and Carbon Basins, south-central Wyoming, are presented in tables with no interpretation. Common-constituent, trace-element, and radiochemical data for ground and surface water and sediment concentrations for surface water are included. Ground water at 53 sites and surface water at 3 gaging stations were sampled. (Kosco-USGS)...
Petrology and stratigraphy of Paleogene nonmarine sandstones, Cascade Range, Washington
Virgil A. Frizzell
1979, Open-File Report 79-1149
The Cascade Range of Washington north of 47? latitude is composed of probable Paleozoic and Mesozoic metamorphic rocks and Mesozoic and Tertiary plutonic rocks. Several Paleogene nonmarine arkosic sandstone units fringe and in part occur within the complex crystalline core. The early to middle Eocene Chuckanut Formation is present on...
Late diagenetic indicators of buried oil and gas: II, Direct detection experiment at Cement and Garza oil fields, Oklahoma and Texas, using enhanced LANDSAT I and II images
Terrence J. Donovan, Patricia A. Termain, Mitchell E. Henry
1979, Open-File Report 79-243
The Cement oil field, Oklahoma, was a test site for an experiment designed to evaluate LANDSAT's capability to detect an alteration zone in surface rocks caused by hydrocarbon microseepage. Loss of iron and impregnation of sandstone by carbonate cements and replacement of gypsum by calcite are the major alteration phenomena...
Availability and quality of ground water, southern Ute Indian Reservation, southwestern Colorado
Robert E. Brogden, E. Carter Hutchinson, Donald E. Hillier
1979, Water Supply Paper 1576-J
Population growth and the potential development of subsurface mineral resources have increased the need for information on the availability and quality of ground water on the Southern Ute Indian Reservation. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Southern Ute Tribal Council, the Four Corners Regional Planning Commission, and the...
Magnitudes, nature, and effects of point and nonpoint discharges in the Chattahoochee River Basin, Atlanta to West Point Dam, Georgia
J. K. Stamer, Rodney N. Cherry, R.E. Faye, R.L. Kleckner
1979, Water Supply Paper 2059
During the period April 1975 to June 1978, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted a river-quality assessment of the Upper Chattahoochee River basin in Georgia. One objective of the study was to assess the magnitudes, nature, and effects of point and non-point discharges in the Chattahoochee River basin from Atlanta to...
