Chemical quality of surface waters and sedimentation in the Saline River basin, Kansas
Paul Robert Jordan, B.F. Jones, Lester R. Petri
1964, Water Supply Paper 1651
This report gives the results of an investigation of the sediment and dissolved minerals that are transported by the Saline River and its tributaries. The Saline River basin is in western and central Kansas; it is long and narrow and covers 3,420 square miles of rolling plains, which is broken...
Hydrogeology of northwestern Nassau and northeastern Queens Counties, Long Island, New York
Wolfgang V. Swarzenski
1964, Water Supply Paper 1657
A detailed investigation of the geology and ground-water occurrence in northwestern Nassau and northeastern Queens Counties, N.Y., has been completed by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Nassau County Department of Public Works and the New York State Water Resources Commission. The area, about 63 square miles, includes...
Geology of the Guadalupe Mountains, New Mexico
Philip Thayer Hayes
1964, Professional Paper 446
After the discovery of oil in Permian rocks in Winkler County, Tex., in 1920, petroleum exploration intensified in adjacent parts of western Texas and southeastern New Mexico. Almost immediately unusual stratigraphic complexities were discovered in the Permian rocks. Thus began a long period of stratigraphic investigations, chiefly reconnaissance studies, of...
Seismic study of coal mine bumps, Carbon and Emery Counties, Utah
C. Richard Dunrud, Frank W. Osterwald
1964, Open-File Report 64-45
A continuously recording seismic network was constructed in 1962 by the U.S. Geological Survey to locate epicenters and record incidence of bumps (bounces, rock bursts) that occur in the bituminous coal mines of the Book Cliffs coal field near Sunnyside, Utah. The coal is mined because of its value as...
Geology and ground-water resources of Washington, D.C., and vicinity, with a section on chemical quality of the water
Paul McKelvey Johnston, D. E. Weaver, Leonard Siu
1964, Water Supply Paper 1776
The area of this report includes 436 square miles centered about the District of Columbia. The area contains parts of two distinctly different physiographic provinces-the Piedmont and the Coastal Plain. The Fall Line, which separates the Piedmont province on the west from the Coastal Plain Province on the east, bisects...

Ground-water resources of Waupaca County, Wisconsin
Charles F. Berkstresser
1964, Water Supply Paper 1669-U
Waupaca County is in east-central Wisconsin. No serious ground-water problems existed in 1960 except in a few localities where crystalline rock is near land surface or is covered by nearly impermeable till. The use of ground water for irrigation has not appreciably affected ground-water levels. The county is covered by Pleistocene...
Methods of determining permeability, transmissibility and drawdown
Ray Bentall
1964, Water Supply Paper 1536-I
If the Theis graphical method is used for determining the hydraulic constants of an aquifer under water-table conditions, the observed drawdowns should be corrected for the decrease in saturated thickness. This is especially true if the drawdown is a large fraction of the original saturated thickness, for then the computed...
Geology and ground-water resources of Richardson County, Nebraska
Philip A. Emery
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-W
Richardson County is in the extreme southeast corner of Nebraska. It has an area of 545 square miles, and in 1960 it had a population of 13,903. The county is in the physiographic region referred to as the Dissected Loess-covered Till Prairies. Major drainage consists of the Big Nemaha River,...
Giant Upper Cretaceous oysters from the Gulf coast and Caribbean
Norman F. Sohl, Erle G. Kauffman
1964, Professional Paper 483-H
Two unusually massive ostreid species, representing the largest and youngest Mesozoic members of their respective lineages, occur in Upper Cretaceous sediment of the gulf coast and Caribbean areas. Their characteristics and significance, as well as the morphologic terminology of ostreids in general, are discussed. Crassostrea cusseta Sohl and Kauffman n. sp....
