Biogeochemistry of vanadium
Helen L. Cannon
1962, Open-File Report 62-25
Vanadium is known to occur in soils as vanadates of copper, zinc, lead, uranium, ferric iron, manganese, calcium, and potassium. Vanadium replaces aluminum in clays and occurs in porphyrin complexes in bituminous sediments.Small amounts of vanadium are stimulating to plants; large amounts are toxic. Ten to 20 ppm vanadium in...
Reconnaissance of ground-water resources in the Western Coal Field Region, Kentucky
Bruce William Maxwell, Robert Washburn Devaul
1962, Water Supply Paper 1599
In the Western Coal Field region of Kentucky, water is obtained from consolidated sedimentary rocks of Mississippian and Pennsylvanian ages and from unconsolidated sediments of Cenozoic age. Pennsylvanian rocks crop out in more than 95 percent of the area and consist of shale and sandstone interbedded with some limestone and...
Water levels in observation wells in Santa Barbara County, California, in 1961
K. S. Muir
1962, Open-File Report 62-91
Investigation of the ground-water resources of Santa Barbara County was continued during 1961 by the U. S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Santa Barbara County Water Agency. Monthly water-level measurements were made in 190 wells, in 9 of which automatic water-level recorders were operated. Earlier measurements, covering the period...
Ground-water reconnaissance in Round Valley, Custer County, Idaho
E. G. Crosthwaite
1962, Open-File Report 62-33
Round Valley in central Idaho contains alluvial deposits of Pleistocene and Recent age which yield adequate supplies of ground water for stock and domestic wells. The alluvial deposits are underlain by Challis Volcanics of Oligocene or Early Miocene age and a few wells obtain domestic and stock water from the...
Effect of reservoir storage on peak flow
William D. Mitchell
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-C
For observation of small-basin flood peaks, numerous crest-stage gages now are operated at culverts in roadway embankments. To the extent that they obstruct the natural flood plains of the streams, these embankments serve to create detention reservoirs, and thus to reduce the magnitude of observed peak flows. Hence, it is...
Water-supply possibilities at Capitol Reef National Monument, Utah
I. Wendell Marine
1962, Water Supply Paper 1475-G
A water supply of 50 gpm (gallons per minute) is estimated to be sufficient to supply the present and future water demand at the monument. The Coconino sandstone of Permian age seems to be capable of yielding this quantity to a well between 1,500 and 2,700 feet deep in the...
Notes on earth fissures in southern Arizona
G.M. Robinson, D.E. Peterson
1962, Circular 466
This report describes earth fissures at six sites in southern Arizona. These notes are preliminary to a more extensive study and detailed analysis being prepared by hydrologists in the Water Resources Division. Earth fissures were first recorded in Arizona in 1927, and have been noticed with increasing frequency since 1949....
Current studies of the hydrology of prairie potholes
Jelmer B. Shjeflo
1962, Circular 472
The prairie potholes in the North-Central States and in Canada are of glacial origin. Because many of them contain ponds or marshes, they are important in the production of livestock and waterfowl. The objective of the present investigation is to determine the amount of water that accumulates in and is...
