Water quality of Tampa Bay, Florida, June 1972 - May 1976
Carole L. Goetz, Carl R. Goodwin
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-12
A comprehensive assessment of the water quality of Tampa Bay, Florida, was initiated in 1970 to provide background information to evaluate the effects of widening and deepening the ship channel to the port of Tampa. This report provides results of water-quality sampling in the bay from 1972 to 1976, prior...
Flood risks and the willingness to purchase flood insurance
M.R. Karlinger, E. D. Attanasi
1980, Water Resources Research (16) 617-622
Computer simulation experiments were conducted to determine the effects of alternative sources of uncertainty on the willingness to pay for flood insurance. Two alternative insurance protection schemes were investigated: coinsurance and fixed coverage. The question investigated here is to what extent does the insurance scheme influence how purchasers respond to...
Some constraints on levels of shear stress in the crust from observations and theory
Art McGarr
1980, Journal of Geophysical Research Solid Earth (85) 6231-6238
In situ stress determinations in North America, southern Africa, and Australia indicate that on the average the maximum shear stress increases linearly with depth to at least 5.1 km measured in soft rock, such as shale and sandstone, and to 3.7 km in hard rock, including granite and quartzite. Regression...
Satellite image atlas of glaciers
J.G. Ferrigno, R. S. Williams Jr.
1980, IAHS Red Book 126
The US Geological Survey has initiated a project to prepare a satellite image atlas of glaciers with the cooperation of a number of US and international organizations. The atlas will include the geographical distribution of glaciers as well as topics of glaciology and related environmental phenomena using Landsat, NOAA and...
Developing a state water plan: Ground-water conditions in Utah, spring of 1979
Don Price, W.N. Jibson, P. Kay Contratto, R. W. Mower, Judy I. Steiger, V.L. Jensen, M. D. ReMillard, D. C. Emett, C.T. Sumison, P.A. Carroll, L.J. Neff, G. W. Sandberg, L. R. Herbert
1979, Cooperative Investigations Report 18
This report is the sixteenth in a series of annual reports that describe ground-water conditions in Utah. Reports in this series, prepared cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Division of Water Resources, provide data to enable interested parties to keep abreast of changing ground-water conditions.This report, like...
Trace metal bioavailability: Modeling chemical and biological interactions of sediment-bound zinc
S. N. Luoma, G.W. Bryan
Everett A. Jenne, editor(s)
1979, Book chapter, Chemical Modeling in Aqueous Systems
Extractable concentrations of sediment-bound Zn, as modified by the physicochemical form of the metal in the sediments, controlled Zn concentrations in the deposit-feeding bivalvesScrobicularia plana (collected from 40 stations in 17 estuaries in southwest England) andMacoma balthica (from 28 stations in San Francisco Bay). Over a wide range of concentrations,...
Geology and groundwater resources of Monroe County, Pennsylvania
Orville B. Lloyd Jr., Louis D. Carswell
1979, Water Resource Report 47
Monroe County is on the eastern border of Pennsylvania and includes much of the area popularly called the Poconos. It is an area long used for outdoor recreation and includes a part of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. Water resources in the county are derived from precipitation. The...
Geology and groundwater resources of western Crawford County, Pennsylvania
George R. Schiner, John T. Gallaher
1979, Water Resource Report 46
Western Crawford County is in northwestern Pennsylvania. The project area is 15 to 20 miles south of Lake Erie and is bordered on the west by Ohio. Drift of Pleistocene age (Wisconsinan Age) covers most of the area, which is a maturely dissected plateau. The drift in the upland area...
Environment of ore deposition in the Creede mining district, San Juan Mountains, Colorado; Part IV, source of fluids, from oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon isotope studies
P. M. Bethke, R. O. Rye
1979, Economic Geology (74) 1832-1851
The hydrogen isotopic composition of fluids responsible for formation of the near-surface silver-base metal vein deposits at Creede was measured by direct analysis of inclusion fluids in sphalerite, quartz, and rhodochrosite and was estimated from analyses of illite and chlorite. The oxygen isotopic composition was determined directly on inclusion fluids...
