Numerical simulation of steady state three-dimensional groundwater flow near lakes
Thomas C. Winter
1978, Water Resources Research (14) 245-254
Numerical simulation of three-dimensional groundwater flow near lakes shows that the continuity of the boundary encompassing the local groundwater flow system associated with a lake is the key to understanding the interaction of a lake with the groundwater system. The continuity of the boundary can be determined by the presence...
Age of the last major scabland flood of the Columbia Plateau in eastern Washington
D. R. Mullineaux, R.E. Wilcox, W.F. Ebaugh, R. Fryxell, M. Rubin
1978, Quaternary Research (10) 171-180
Pumice layers of set S from Mount St. Helens can be correlated with certain ash beds associated with young flood deposits of the channeled scabland. The correlation points to an age of about 13,000 14C yr B.P. for the last major flood to have crossed the scabland. Until recently, the...
Developing a state water plan: Ground-water conditions in Utah, spring of 1978
Joseph S. Gates, W.N. Jibson, L. R. Herbert, R. W. Mower, A. C. Razem, R.M. Cordova, V.L. Jensen, M. D. ReMillard, D. C. Emett, C.T. Sumison, P.A. Carroll, M.J. DeGrand, G. W. Sandberg
1978, Cooperative Investigations Report 17
This report is the fifteenth in a series of annual reports that describe ground-water conditions in Utah. Reports in this series, prepared cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Division of Water Resources, provide data to enable interested parties to keep abreast of changing ground-water conditions.This report, like...
Ground-water resources and geology of Columbia County, Wisconsin
C.A. Harr, L. C. Trotta, Ronald G. Borman
1978, Wisconsin Geological & Natural History Survey Information Circular 37
The increasing need for water of good Quality in Columbia County, caused by a steadily increasing population, can be met from the sand-and-gravel and sandstone aquifers. As much as 15 gallons per minute can be obtained from wells almost everywhere. Yields of more than 1,000 gallons per minute are available...
Geologic framework of lower Cook Inlet, Alaska
Michael A. Fisher, Leslie B. Magoon
1978, American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin (62) 373-402
Three seismic reflectors are present throughout the lower Cook Inlet basin and can be correlated with onshore geologic features. The reflections come from unconformities at the base of the Tertiary sequence, at the base of Upper Cretaceous rocks, and near the base of Upper Jurassic strata.A contour map of the...
Geology and groundwater resources of northern Berks County, Pennsylvania
Charles R. Wood, David B. MacLachlan
1978, Water Resource Report 44
The area of investigation comprises approximately 540 square miles and lies entirely within the Great Valley section of the Valley and Ridge physiographic province. The Great Valley is underlain chiefly by carbon ate rocks in the south and by shale and graywacke in the north. Most of the carbonate rocks...
Guidebook to Rio Grande rift in New Mexico
1978, New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources Circular 163
Discusses the details of geologic features along the rift zone. Included are short papers on topics relative to the overall region. These papers and the road logs are of special interest to any one pursuing further study of the rift. This book is a comprehensive guide to the middle and...
Morphology of chasma walls, Mars
Baerbel K. Lucchitta
1978, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (6) 651-662
The landforms developed on the walls of the Valles Marineris system of chasmas are of three major types, which are locally transitional. The most common type is composed of steep spurs and gullies. The dominant process in the formation or modification of this type appears to be the downslope movement...
Natural radioactivity in geothermal waters, Alhambra Hot Springs and nearby areas, Jefferson County, Montana
Robert B. Leonard, Victor J. Janzer
1978, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (6) 529-540
Radioactive hot springs issue from a fault zone in crystalline rock of the Boulder batholith at Alhambra, Jefferson County, in southwestern Montana. The discharge contains high concentrations of radon, and the gross alpha activity and the concentration of adium-226 exceed maximum levels recommended by the Environmental Protection Agency for drinking...
Ground-water resources of the Parowan-Cedar City drainage basin, Iron County, Utah
L.J. Bjorklund, C.T. Sunsion, G. W. Sandberg
1978, Technical Publication 60
The Parowan-Cedar City drainage basin, Iron County, Utah, includes about 1,100 mi2 (square miles)(2,800 km2 [square kilometers])--520 mi2 (1,300 km2) in the Parowan basin and 580 mi2 (1,500 km2) in the Cedar City basin. Parowan and Cedar City Valleys are structural depressions formed by northeast-trending faults. Parowan Valley is essentially...
Ground-water conditions in the Navajo Sandstone in the central Virgin River basin, Utah
R.M. Cordova
1978, Technical Publication 61
The central Virgin River basin, Utah, includes about 1,000 square miles (2,600 square kilometers) in the drainage basin of the Virgin River downstream from the Hurricane Cliffs. The Navajo Sandstone of Late Triassic(?) and Jurassic age crops out in 234 square miles (606 square kilometers) of the basin and underlies...
Porphyry-type metallization and alteration at La Florida de Nacozari, Sonora, Mexico
Ted G. Theodore, Miguel Priego de Wit
1978, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (6) 59-72
Pervasive secondary biotite-rich mineral assemblages, characteristic of potassic alteration found in the cores of most commercial porphyry copper systems, are associated spatially with a conspicuous color and a geochemical anomaly at La Florida de Nacozari, Sonora. These composite biotite-magnetite assemblages, with or without actinolite, quartz, rutile, sphene, chalcopyrite, and pyrite...
Hydrologic reconnaissance of the Dugway Valley-Government Creek area, West-Central Utah
Jerry C. Stephens, C. T. Sumsion
1978, Technical Publication 59
The Dugway Valley-Government Creek area covers about 890 square miles (2,300 square kilometers) in west-central Utah. Total annual precipitation on the area averages about 380,000 acre-feet (470 cubic hectometers). Most streams are ephemeral except for a few in their upper reaches--all are ephemeral below the altitude of about 6,000 feet...
