Comprehensive monitoring of meteorology, hydraulics, and thermal regime of the San Diego Aqueduct, California
Harvey E. Jobson, Alex M. Sturrock
1979, Professional Paper 1137
Water temperature, as well as meteorologic and hydraulic variables which influence the energy budget of the San Diego Aqueduct in southern California, were continuously monitored for a 1-year period beginning July 24, 1973. Incoming solar and atmospheric radiation, windspeed and direction, water temperature, and wet- and dry-bulb air temperatures were...

A one-dimensional, steady-state, dissolved-oxygen model and waste-load assimilation study for Wildcat Creek, Howard County, Indiana
Charles G. Crawford, William G. Wilber, James G. Peters
1979, Open-File Report 79-1252
The Indiana State Board of Health is developing a water-quality management plan that includes establishing limits for wastewater effluents discharged into Indiana streams. A digital model calibrated to conditions in Wildcat Creek was used to predict alternatives for future waste loadings that would be compatible with Indiana stream water-quality standards...
Potential hazards from floodflows and debris movement in the Furnace Creek area, Death Valley National Monument, California-Nevada
John R. Crippen
1979, Open-File Report 79-991
Death Valley is known as the driest and hottest region in the United States. Despite the aridity of the valley itself, however , very heavy rainfall sometimes occurs in the nearby mountains. Such violent rainstorms are likely to be of relatively short duration and to occur over rather small areas;...
Preliminary report on an exploratory drill hole: New Madrid test well-1-X in Southeast Missouri
Anthony J. Crone, D. P. Russ
1979, Open-File Report 79-1216
As part of the U.S. Geological Survey's investigation of earthquake hazards in the upper Mississippi embayment, a test well (NMTW-l-X) was drilled in the "bootheel" of Missouri, 21 km south-southwest of the town of New Madrid. The primary purpose of the well was to obtain in situ stress measurements from...

Geometric considerations for an automated mapping satellite system (Mapsat)
Alden P. Colvocoresses
1979, Open-File Report 79-914
The geometry of the frame photograph whether taken from an aircraft or a satellite is well known and documented. Transforming photographs into maps is a relatively slow and expensive process which for many critical steps defies automation. A satellite offers the unique advantages of greater stability and uniform velocity over...

A summary of measured hydraulic data for the series of steady and unsteady flow experiments over patterned roughness
Dannie L. Collins, Kathleen M. Flynn
1979, Open-File Report 79-1260
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 in the Baker County-northern Malheur County area, Oregon
C. A. Collins
1979, Open-File Report 79-695
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...

Geologic map of the Amenthes Quadrangle of Mars
K.H. Hiller
1979, IMAP 1110
The Amenthes quadrangle includes two main physiographic and geologic subdivisions. In the southern part of the quadrangle, densely cratered plateaus rise about 3 km above sparsely to moderately cratered plains. The low plains that form Elysium Planitia also build the eastern flank of the Isidis basin, which mostly lies...

1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-89
The Pensacola, Florida, area, comprising Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties, has abundant water of good quality. Most of the freshwater used, about 101 million gallons per day, comes from the surficial sand-and-gravel aquifer. The deeper Floridan aquifer locally contains saltwater, and is used in places for industrial waste disposal. Surface...
