A total intensity magnetic anomaly map of the Red Sea and its interpretation
Stuart A. Hall
1979, Open-File Report 80-131
All available total intensity magnetic field data have been used to prepare a total intensity magnetic anomaly map of the Red Sea at a scale of 1:2,000,000. These include airborne surveys at various elevations and numerous sea surveys. The data have been digitised at approximately one kilometre intervals and the...
The use of Vacutainer tubes for collection of soil samples for helium analysis
Margaret Hinkle, James E. Kilburn
1979, Open-File Report 79-1441
Measurements of the helium concentration of soil samples collected and stored in Vacutainer-brand evacuated glass tubes show that Vacutainers are reliable containers for soil collection. Within the limits of reproducibility, helium content of soils appears to be independent of variations in soil temperature, barometric pressure, and quantity of soil moisture...

Southeast Georgia embayment high-resolution seismic-reflection survey
Douglas W. Edsall
1979, Open-File Report 78-800
A high-resolution seismic survey of the offshore part of the Southeast Georgia Embayment on about a 20 km spacing was completed in 1976. A stratigraphic analyses of the data shows that the largest controlling factor in the depositional history of the shelf has been the Gulf Stream. These currents have...
Analysis of ground water by different laboratories: a comparison of chloride and nitrate data, Nassau and Suffolk counties, New York
Brian G. Katz, Richard K. Krulikas
1979, Open-File Report 79-1063
Water samples from wells in Nassau and Suffolk Counties were analyzed for chloride and nitrate. Two samples were collected at each well; one was analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey, the other by a laboratory in the county from which the sample was taken. Results were compared statistically by paired-sample...
The concentration and mobility of elements in subalpine forest soils in Colorado and Idaho
Gary C. Curtin, Harley D. King, J. M. Nishi
1979, Open-File Report 79-710
Leaching studies of subalpine forest soils collected at seven sites in Colorado and Idaho show that copper, cobalt, chromium, magnesium, barium, tin, strontium, and yttrium are highly mobile elements in these soils; that zirconium, lanthanum, nickel, and scandium are moderately mobile; and that titanium is rather immobile. Furthermore, the results...
Preliminary report on Tertiary volcanism and uranium mineralization in the Thomas Range and northern Drum Mountains, Juab County, Utah
David Allen Lindsey
1979, Open-File Report 79-1076
The Thomas Range and northern Drum Mountains have a history of volcanism, faulting, and mineralization that began about 42 m.y. ago. Volcanic activity and mineralization in the area can be divided into three stages according to the time-related occurrence of rock types, trace element associations, and chemical nature of mineralization....

Proterozoic sedimentary rocks and basins of the Arabian shield and their evolution
Donald G. Hadley, Dwight Lyman Schmidt
1979, Open-File Report 79-1189
Proterozoic sedimentary rocks of the Arabian Shield consist of three depositional phases. Phase I (the oldest) includes the Baish, Bahah, and Jiddah groups, which consist of an immature assemblage dominated by fine-grained metagraywacke, graphitic schist, chert, marble, and subordinate polymictic conglomerate and metasiltstone. Clastic rocks of Phase I are composed...

Preliminary analysis of clay gouge from a well in the San Andreas fault zone in central California
Richard Liechti, Mark D. Zoback
1979, Open-File Report 79-861
Drilling into the San Andreas fault zone has begun in central California as part of the U.S.G.S. program of fault zone studies. The purpose of drilling into the fault zone is threefold. First, it will allow recovery of material from depth in order to determine the composition of both solid...

The depth to the subject reef has been estimated at a nominal 10 n by three independent analyses based on Landsat and (in two cases) comparisons.: to measured depths of submerged features in the same area. Fathometer readings made in 1979 confirm the 1O-m reading....
Discharge characteristics of triangular-notch thin-plate weirs
John Shen
1979, Open-File Report 79-1476
The triangular-notch, thin-plate weir is a convenient, inexpensive, and relatively precise flow-measuring instrument. It is frequently used to measure the flow of water in laboratories and in small, natural streams. The purpose of this report is to present a comprehensive analysis of the discharge characteristics of triangular-notch weirs. Previously-published data...
Water-quality assessment of the L'Anguille River basin, Arkansas
Charles T. Bryant, Edward E. Morris, J. E. Terry
1979, Open-File Report 79-1482
For several years, dissolved oxygen in the L'Anguille River has been reduced to concentrations of less than 5.0 milligrams per liter during the summer and fall. The dissolved-oxygen reduction is due only in part to the municipal-waste discharges which enter the river. In addition, concentrations of pesticides have been reported...
