1979, Open-File Report 79-1148
A 21.2-m-long core taken in the northwest part of the Upper Arm or main body of Clear Lake, California, has yielded a continuous record of fish life in this part of the lake during approximately the last 24,500 years. This record provides data concerning faunal changes in the Upper Arm,...

Phosphatic Permian rocks of the Adobe Range, Nevada, and their environment of deposition
Keith Brindley Ketner
1979, Open-File Report 79-239
Permian sedimentary rocks in the Adobe range, northern Nevada, are phosphatic, and although the particles of phosphate are relatively more disseminated, they closely resemble the rocks of the Phosphoria Formation. In the northern Adobe Range, where the entire Permian sequence is approximately correlative with the Phosphoria Formation, it is 200...
Geologic map of the greater Denver area, Front Range urban corridor, Colorado

1979, IMAP 856-H
This digital map shows the areal extent of surficial deposits and rock stratigraphic units (formations) as compiled by Trimble and Machette from 1973 to 1977 and published in 1979 under the Front Range Urban Corridor Geology Program. Trimble and Machette compiled their geologic map from published geologic maps and unpublished...

Possible uranium mineralization, Mineral Mountains, Utah
W. Roger Miller, John B. McHugh, Walter H. Ficklin
1979, Open-File Report 79-1354
The Mineral Mountains block in west-central Utah is a horst whose core stands structurally high relative to all nearby basin-and-range fault blocks. Rocks of the Mineral Mountains range from Precambrian to Quaternary in age, but mostly consist of Tertiary granitic rocks. The range lies with the Wah Wah-Tusher mineral belt....

Introduction to monitoring dynamic environmental phenomena of the world using satellite data collection systems, 1978
William Douglas Carter, Richard W. Paulson
1979, Circular 803
The rapid development of satellite technology, especially in the area of radio transmission and imaging systems, makes it possible to monitor dynamic surface phenomena of the Earth in considerable detail. The monitoring systems that have been developed are compatible with standard monitoring systems such as snow, stream, and rain gages;...
Estimated drawdowns in the Floridan aquifer due to increased withdrawals, Duval County, Florida
Bernard J. Franks, G. G. Phelps
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-84
Hydrologic investigations of the Floridan aquifer in Duval County, Florida, have shown that an appropriate simplified model of the aquifer system consists of a series of sub aquifers separated by semipermeable beds. Data from more than 20 aquifer tests were reanalyzed by the Hantush modified method, which takes into account...

Surface subsidence and collapse in relation to extraction of salt and other soluble evaporites
John R. Ege
1979, Open-File Report 79-1666
Extraction of soluble minerals, whether by natural or man-induced processes, can result in localized land-surface subsidence and more rarely sinkhole formation. One process cited by many investigators is that uncontrolled dissolving of salt or other soluble evaporites can create or enlarge underground cavities, thereby increasing the span of the unsupported...
Chemical and biological quality of selected lakes in Ohio, 1976 and 1977
Robert L. Tobin, John D. Youger
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-109
Twenty-eight Ohio lakes (14 per year) were sampled by the U.S. Geological Survey and Ohio Environmental Protection Agency for the water-quality characteristics during the spring and summer of 1976 and 1977. Data items included: profiles of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductance; physical, biological, nutrient, and organic characteristics; major...

Program and plans of the U.S. Geological Survey for producing information needed in National Seismic hazards and risk assessment, fiscal years 1980-84
Walter W. Hays
1979, Circular 816
In accordance with the provisions of the Earthquake Hazards Reduction Act of 1977 (Public Law 95-124), the U.S. Geological Survey has developed comprehensive plans for producing information needed to assess seismic hazards and risk on a national scale in fiscal years 1980-84. These plans are based on a review of...

Map showing ground-water conditions in the Virgin River, Grand Wash, and Shivwits areas, Mohave County, Arizona, 1976
G. W. Levings, C. D. Farrar
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-57
The Virgin River, Grand Wash, and Shivwits areas include about 3 ,250 square miles in northwestern Arizona. Ground water is obtained mainly from the alluvium, conglomerate, and basalt; however, several other formations yield small amounts of water to some wells. In the Virgin River area, most wells are less than...
