Calibration of a simple oilspill trajectory model using the Argo Merchant spill
Timothy Wyant
1978, Open-File Report 78-334
An oil spill risk analysis was conducted to determine the relative envionmental hazards of developing oil in different regions of the Eastern Gulf of Mexico Outer Continental Shelf lease area. The study analyzed the probability of spill occurrence, likely paths of the spills, and locations in space and time of...
Discrimination of hydrothermally altered rocks along the Battle Mountain-Eureka, Nevada, mineral belt using Landsat images
M. Dennis Krohn, Michael J. Abrams, Lawrence C. Rowan
1978, Open-File Report 78-585
Landsat Multispectral Scanner (MSS) images of the northwestern part of the Battle Mountain-Eureki, Nevada mineral belt were evaluated for distinguishing hydrothermally altered rocks associated with porphyry copper and disseminated gold deposits. Detection of altered rocks from Landsat is based on the distinctive spectral reflectance of limonite present at coatings on...
Catalog of locations of U.S.G.S. instruments recording low-frequency data in California
William B. Daul, M.J.S. Johnston
1978, Open-File Report 78-358
During the past few years, the U.S. Geological Survey has installed many different types of instrumentation for the observation and detection of crustal deformation within the San Andreas fault system. In order to have an effective earthquake prediction program, it is important to have continuous data from these instruments collected...
Principal facts for borehole gravity stations in stratigraphic test well ERDA No. 9, Eddy County, New Mexico
Bruce A. Kososki, Stephen L. Robbins, James W. Schmoker
1978, Open-File Report 78-696
Since 1972 the U.S. Geological Survey has been conducting a series of field evaluation studies in southeastern New Mexico for the Waste Management Division of the Department of Energy (formerly U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration). On the basis of these studies, a tentative site for a nuclear waste repository/disposal...
Susceptibility of coastal plain aquifers to contamination, Fairfax County, Virginia; a computer composite map
Richard H. Johnston, J. Nicholas Van Driel
1978, Open-File Report 78-265
A map is presented that classifies the Coastal Plain of Fairfax County, Virginia according to the susceptibility of the principal sand aquifers to contamination from surface sources. The following classification is used: (1) areas where leachate can readily enter the principal sand aquifers, (2) areas offering great natural protection against...
Water table in the surficial aquifer and potentiometric surface of the Floridan Aquifer in selected well fields, west-central Florida, September 1977
Paul D. Ryder, L. R. Mills
1978, Open-File Report 78-311
The water table in the surficial aquifer and the potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer in a 1,200 square-mile area in west-central Florida are mapped semiannually by the U.S. Geological Survey. Maps are prepared on the basis of water levels measured in wells each May to coincide with seasonal low...
