Geochemical soil studies in the Cotter Basin area, Lewis and Clark County, Montana
D. J. Grimes, Robert L. Earhart
1975, Open-File Report 75-72
Geochemical sampling in an area of abnormal vegetation in the Cotter basin area, Lewis and Clark County, Montana, shows anomalously high concentrations of Cu, Pb, Ag, Zn, and Au in the soil. The singular presence of a particular plant species growing in the highly anomalous zone merits further investigation for...
Hydrologic effects of reducing irrigation to maintain a permanent pool in John Martin Reservoir, Arkansas River Valley, Colorado
Richard R. Luckey
1975, Open-File Report 75-214
The U.S. Geological Survey has evaluated a plan by the Colorado Division of Wildlife to maintain a permanent pool of 10,000 acre-feet (1.2x107 cubic metres) in John Martin Reservoir on the Arkansas River. The proposed pool would be maintained through the use of water formerly diverted by the Catlin Canal...
A general outline of the water resources of the Toppenish Creek basin, Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington
Dean O. Gregg, Leslie Bostwick Laird
1975, Open-File Report 75-19
Increasing demands for water supplies, plans for irrigating new lands, proposals to divert water from the Yakima River by users downstream from the reservation, and ground-water problems have made an accounting of the overall availability of water very important to water management on the reservation. This report, which broadly outlines...
Flow characteristics of the Lower Wisconsin River
J. H. Green
1975, Open-File Report 75-582
The flow of water throughout the year and the stream gradient are necessary considerations in evaluating the recreational potential of the lower Wisconsin River. This flow is regulated in part by the dam at Prairie du Sac and influenced considerably by the 47 storage reservoirs and power dams above Lake...

Heavy-mineral trends in the Beaufort Sea
Gretchen Luepke
1975, Open-File Report 75-667
Sediments of the Beaufort Sea, off the North Slope of Alaska contain a great variety of heavy minerals. These include garnet, chrome spinel, augite, pigeonite, diopside, hornblende, enstatite, hypersthene, epidote, clinozoisite, zoisite, apatite, tourmaline, chloritoid, sphene, zircon, and opaque minerals. Much rarer constituents are glaucophane, lamprobolite, rutile, kyanite, staurolite, and...

Tectonic framework of petroliferous rocks in Alaska
Arthur Grantz, C.E. Kirschner
1975, Open-File Report 75-149
Alaska, comprising 3.6 X 106 sq km (about 28 percent) of the land, shelf, and upper continental slope of the United States, has been estimated by the U.S. Geological Survey (1974) to contain about 25 percent of the Nation's petroleum resources. Some 11 billion barrels of petroleum liquids and 31...
Sandstone geometry, porosity and permeability distribution, and fluid migration in eolian system reservoirs
Robert Lupe, Thomas S. Ahlbrandt
1975, Open-File Report 75-357
Upper Paleozoic to Mesozoic eolian blanket sandstones of the Colorado Plateau and the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and southern Wyoming are texturally complex. As petroleum reservoirs they commonly have poor performance histories. They contain the sediments of a depositional system comprised of three closely associated depositional subenvironments: dune, interdune, and...

1975, Open-File Report 75-549
The Lower Cook Inlet Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) contains 5600 km2 of submerged land in less than 200 m of water 150 to 350 km southwest of Anchorage, Alaska. This area could contain from 0.3 to 1.4 billion barrels of oil and from 0.6 to 2.7 trillion cubic feet of...
Geology of the Jabel Ishmas Quadrangle, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Louis Gonzales, Vincent J. Flanigan
1975, Open-File Report 75-181
The Jabal Ishmas quadrangle (20/43A) is about 100 km northeast of Qal'at Bishah in the southern part of the Arabian Shield. Most of the terrane in the quadrangle slopes gently westward across broad expanses of pediment, from prominent mountainous north-south ridges in the east to the alluvial and eolian sand-covered...

A gas chromatographic method for the analysis of both water and soil-core material for TNT and RDX is presented. The explosives may be determined to 0.01 microgram per litre in 1-litre water samples and 0.2 micrograms per kilogram in 50 grams of soil. Provision is made for removal of environmental...
