Effects of Urbanization on the Magnitude and Frequency of Floods on Small Streams in Tennessee - Basic Data Report No. 1
Fred N. Lee
1980, Open-File Report 80-572
Peak stages and discharges recorded at 17 gaging stations on streams draining small (less than 20 sq mi) urbanized basins across Tennessee are presented. Sites gaged are in 17 different municipaities with population range between 5,000 and 100.000. The report gives a description of each gaged site along with a...

Hydrogeology of the Seldovia area, Alaska
Gordon L. Nelson, Wesley R. Danskin
1980, Open-File Report 80-952
Surficial materials in the Seldovia area, Alaska, are mapped as glacial drift over sedimentary bedrock, glacial drift over igneous and metamorphic bedrock, valley-bottom, alluvium, alluvial fan deposits, beach and intertidal deposits, and peat. Unconsolidated materials are generally less than 10 feet thick except in well-drained glacial deposits along the Seldovia-Jakolof...
Geochemistry of water in the Fort Union Formation of the northern Powder River basin, southeastern Montana
Roger W. Lee
1980, Open-File Report 80-336
Shallow water in the coal-bearing Fort Union Formation of southeastern Montana was investigated to provide a better understanding of the geochemistry. Springs, wells less than 200 feet deep, and wells greater then 200 feet deep were observed to have different water qualities. Overall, the ground water exists as two systems:...

During late October 1977, water discharge from Minidoka Dam into the Milner reach of the Snake River was less than 22 cubic meters per second, compared to normal flows for that time of year of about 42 cubic meters per second or more. To determine if impaired water-quality conditions existed,...
Barren area evapotranspiration estimates generated from energy budget measurements in the Gila River valley of Arizona
O.E. Leppanen
1980, Open-File Report 80-1003
Estimates of evapotranspiration for 479 successive days were created by using energy budget measurements. The measurement point was on the 2-kilometer wide flood plain of the Gila River in east-central Arizona, about 18 kilometers above Coolidge Dam. The flood plain had been cleared of all tall vegetation for distances of...

Quality of runoff from small watersheds in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, Minnesota - A project plan
M. A. Ayers, G. A. Payne, Gary L. Oberts
1980, Open-File Report 80-592
A program of water-quality sampling to define the relationships between land use, watershed characteristics, and the quantity, quality, and timing of runoff has been started for the Twin Cities metropolitan area of Minnesota. Ten major watersheds were chosen as representative of conditions in the metropolitan area. Each will be sampled...
Geothermal resources in the Banbury Hot Springs area, Twin Falls County, Idaho
R.E. Lewis, H.W. Young
1980, Open-File Report 80-563
Thermal water (30.0 to 72.0 degrees Celsius) is produced from 26 wells and 2 springs in the vicinity of Banbury Hot Springs near Buhl, Idaho. Thermal water is used for space heating of private residences, catfish and tropical fish production, greenhouse operation, swimming pools, and therapeutic baths. In 1979, 10...
Thermal springs in the Payette River basin, west-central Idaho
R.E. Lewis, H.W. Young
1980, Open-File Report 80-1020
The Payette River basin, characterized by steep, rugged mountains and narrow river valleys, occupies an area of about 3 ,300 square miles in west-central Idaho. Predominant rock types in the basin include granitic rocks of the Idaho batholith and basalt flows of the Columbia River Basalt Group. Waters from thermal...

Study plan for the regional aquifer-system analysis of alluvial basins in south-central Arizona and adjacent states
T. W. Anderson
1980, Open-File Report 80-1197
The alluvial basins in the Southwestern United States constitute a major source of ground water and are relied upon extensively for agricultural, industrial, and public water supplies. Large-scale depletion of ground water is directly related to pumping that has occurred in the past few decades and is continuing today. The...

1980, Open-File Report 80-1071
A zircon fission-track age of 0.45 ± 0.08 million years (weighted average of 15 samples) has been determined on an ash interbedded with Pleistocene marine or littoral strata in the type section of the Merced Formation at two localities south of San Francisco. Separation of zircon crystals into several sample...
