Freshwater resources of Big Pine Key, Florida
Chris E. Hanson
1980, Open-File Report 80-447
The principal freshwater-bearing unit underlying Big Pine Key is a layer of oolitic limestone averaging 19 feet in thickness. The freshwater exists in two separate lenses, one in the northern half of the island and one in the southern half. The slightly larger north lens is separated from the south...

Multichannel seismic-reflection profiles collected along the U.S. continental margin in 1978
John A. Grow, John Stevens Schlee, William P. Dillon
1980, Open-File Report 80-834
During 1978, the U.S.. Geological Survey (USGS) contracted with Geophysical Services, Inc. (GSI) for GSI to collect 4,813 km of 48-channel seismic-reflection profiles along the continental margin between North Carolina and Maine. Fifteen lines were acquired perpendicular to the margin Clines 18 through 32), and six lines were acquired parallel...
Seismic-reflection data on the eastern U.S. continental shelf acquired by M. V. L'OLONNOIS as part of the Atlantic Margin Coring Project (AMCOR) of the U.S. Geological Survey, July-September 1976
James M. Robb
1980, Open-File Report 80-369
In 1976 the U.S. Geological Survey undertook a program to sample the eastern United States Shelf for stratigraphic information by drilling a set of core holes. Results of this Atlantic Margin Coring Program (AMCOR) have been reported by Hathaway and others. Sites were chosen from seismic-reflection data and were reviewed...

Selected list of references to modern and ancient alluvial fan deposits
Tor Helge Nilsen, Thomas E. Moore
1980, Open-File Report 80-658
The following list of references on modern and ancient alluvial fan deposits has been compiled from an extensive review of the geologic literature. The information was collected as part of the process of preparing a summary paper on alluvial fan deposits for a memoir of the American Association of Petroleum...

1980, Open-File Report 80-556
The National Water Data Exchange (NAWDEX) is a national confederation of water-oriented organizations working together to improve access to water data. It consists of member organizations from all sectors of the water-data community. This Directory provides the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all NAWDEX member organizations and their designated...
An experiment to test hole-to-hole resistivity measurements for locating mine openings in coal seams
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James Henry Scott
1980, Open-File Report 80-895
Hole-to-hole resistivity measurements can be useful for interpreting resistivity anomalies that are located too far away from the borehole to be detected with conventional well logging probes. Hole-to-hole direct current resistivity measurements are shown in this study to be useful for detecting mine openings in a coal seam....
A practical Lagrangian transport model
Harvey E. Jobson
1980, Open-File Report 80-206
An unconditionally stable and practical transport model for use in upland streams and rivers has been developed and verified. Basing the model on the Lagrangian, rather than the Eulerian, reference frame greatly reduces the numerical problems associated with solving the advective terms of the convective-diffusion equation. The model contains almost...
Borehole geophysical measurements for hole UE25-3, Nevada Test Site, Nuclear Waste Isolation Program
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James H. Scott
1980, Open-File Report 80-126
Borehole geophysical measurements made in drill hole UE25a-3 with a U.S. Geological Survey research well-logging truck are presented in this paper. The purpose of these logging measurements is to provide in-situ physical properties information that is not commercially available on drill hole UE25a-3. Well logs are presented in this paper...

The area described in this report includes about 3,050 square miles in west-central Maine. Location of the area within the State is shown in figure 1, and a sketch map identifying the 15-minute topographic quadrangles for the study area is given in figure 2. The western boundary is the New...
Analysis of borehole geophysical data in an evaporite sequence at Salt Valley, Utah
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James H. Scott, Robert J. Hite
1980, Open-File Report 80-525
Interpretation of the lithology of an interbed sequence (thin-bedded sediments between thick layers of salt) is often difficult due to the presence of dolomitic sandstones and halite inclusions. The most useful well logging measurements in an evaporite sequence are gamma-ray, neutron-neutron, density, and acoustic velocity. The high resistivity of salt...
