A one-dimensional, steady-state, dissolved-oxygen model and waste-load assimilation study for West Fork Blue River, Washington County, Indiana
James G. Peters, William G. Wilber, Charles G. Crawford, Frank P. Girardi
1979, Open-File Report 79-1479
The Indiana State Board of Health is developing a water-quality management plan that includes establishing limits for wastewater effluents discharged into Indiana streams. A digital model calibrated to conditions in West Fork Blue River was used to predict alternatives for future waste loadings that would be compatible with Indiana stream...
Ground-water appraisal for the community of Kiryas Joel, Orange County, New York
Roger M. Waller
1979, Open-File Report 79-401
A major fracture system in indurated sedimentary rocks forms a moderately extensive aquifer yielding 100-300 gallons per minute to wells 160 to 420 feet deep. Pumping-test data show that the fracture system is interconnected to distances more than 1,000 feet from the wells. Recharge occurs through overlying clayey till, and...
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...
Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: September 1979
J.B. Townshend, J.E. Papp, E.A. Sauter, S.P. Tilton
1979, Open-File Report 79-300-I
The preliminary geomagnetic data included here is made available to scientific personnel and organizations, as part of a cooperative effort and on a data exchange basis because of the early need by some users. To avoid delay, all of the data is copied from original forms processed at the observatory;...
Uranium, thorium, and mercury distribution through the evolution of the McDermitt Caldera complex
James J. Rytuba, W.K. Conrad, Richard K. Glanzman
1979, Open-File Report 79-541
The McDermitt caldera complex developed over a period of 5 m.y. years during which ash-flow tuff sheets anomalous in mercury, uranium, and thorium were emplaced. The moat portions of the caldera complex were subsequently filled with tuffaceous sediments. Late in the caldera development near-surface intrusives and domes were emplaced along...
Geology, coal resources, and chemical analyses of coal from the Fruitland Formation, Kimbeto EMRIA study site, San Juan County, New Mexico
Gary B. Schneider, Rick T. Hildebrand, Ronald H. Affolter
1979, Open-File Report 79-1090
The Kimbeto EMRIA study site, an area of about 20 square miles (52 km2), is located on the south margin of the San Juan Basin on the gently northward-dipping strata of the Upper Cretaceous Fruitland Formation and the Kirtland Shale. The coal beds are mainly in the lower 150 feet...
The Yampa River basin, Colorado and Wyoming : a preview to expanded coal-resource development and its impacts on regional water resources
Timothy Doak Steele, D. P. Bauer, D.A. Wentz, J. W. Warner
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-126
Expanded coal production and conversion in the Yampa River basin , Colorado and Wyoming, may have substantial impacts on water resources, environmental amenities, and socioeconomic conditions. Preliminary results of a 3-year basin assessment by the U.S. Geological Survey are given for evaluation of surface- and ground-water resources using available data,...
Ancient mines of the Farah Garan area, southwestern Saudi Arabia
C. W. Smith, H. Richard Blank
1979, Open-File Report 79-1659
Ancient miners, in quest of oxidized copper minerals, gold, silver, and possibly zinc, mined gossans to approximately 20 m depth in an area 1.1 by 0.5 km in extent at Farah Garan. The gossans, derived from sulfides, are ordinarily found at contacts between marble lenses and metavolcanic-metasedimentary rocks, but in...
Upper Cretaceous tectonic activity on lineaments in western South Dakota
George W. Shurr
1979, Open-File Report 79-1374
Lineaments mapped on satellite images in western South Dakota define a geometry of basement blocks, and paleotectonic activity on these lineament-bound blocks is recorded in sedimentary rocks. Mapping on seven Landsat images in an area of about 100,000 km2 reveals that lineaments are best developed along azimuths of N. 60°...
Flood of November 8-10, 1977, in northeastern and central New Jersey
Robert D. Schopp, Anthony J. Velnich
1979, Open-File Report 79-559
This report documents hydrologic and meteorologic aspects of flooding in northeastern and central New Jersey during November 8-10, 1977. Peak stages and discharges at 51 streamflow gaging sites are tabulated and compared to previous maximums. High-water flood crest elevations are presented for eight stream reaches in or near Bergen County...
Floods in central Texas, August 1978
E.E. Schroeder, B.C. Massey, Kidd M. Waddell
1979, Open-File Report 79-682
Catastrophic floods, which resulted in millions of dollars in property damages and the loss of 33 lives, occurred in Central Texas during August 1-4, 1978, as a result of intense rainfall produced by the remnants of tropical storm Amelia. Rainfall in excess of 30 inches was unofficially reported at several...
Reconnaissance snow surveys of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska, April 1977 and April-May 1978
Charles E. Sloan, Dennis Trabant, William Glude
1979, Open-File Report 79-1342
Reconnaissance snow surveys of the NPRA (National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska) were made in April 1977 and April-May 1978 to ascertain general snow characteristics and distribution patterns. Thirty-nine sites in 1977 and forty-one sites in 1978 were sampled to determine snow depth, density, structure, and snow-soil interface temperature. In addition,...
