Evaluation of the geologic and hydrologic factors related to the waste-storage potential of Mesozoic aquifers in the southern part of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, South Carolina and Georgia
Philip M. Brown, D.L. Brown, M.S. Reid, O. B. Lloyd Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-292
This report describes the subsurface distribution of rocks of Cretaceous to Late Jurassic(?) age in the Atlantic. Coastal Plain, South Carolina and Georgia, and examines their potential for deep-well waste storage. For mapping purposes a waste-storage "operational unit" is established and defined. It is a sand or sandstone layer, 20...

Preliminary water-quality characterization of lakes in Washington
Gilbert Carl Bortleson
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-94
This report describes a method for comparing and characterizing lakes in Washington on the basis of water quality. The method can aid in selecting lakes for lake-restoration efforts. To simplify comparisons, a characteristic value (CV) was developed for each of 617 lakes in Washington using principal-component analysis. Three of 14...
Present and potential sediment yields in the Yampa River Basin, Colorado and Wyoming
Edmund D. Andrews
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-105
Average annual suspended- and total-sediment loads in streamflow were determined by the flow-duration sediment-transport-curve method at 18 sites in the Yampa River basin, Colorado and Wyoming. These computations indicate that about 2.0 million tons of sediment are carried by the Yampa River at Deerlodge Park during an average year. Significant...
Climate variation and its effects on our land and water : Part C, Geological Survey climate plan
Keith A. Howard, George I. Smith
1978, Circular 776-C
To better coordinate information being generated by the U.S. Geological Survey, a workshop was convened near Denver, Colo., on December 7-9, 1976, to exchange ideas about research that is oriented toward climate, climate variation, and the effects of climate on the Nation 's land and water resources. This is the...

A theoretical basis for exploration for native copper in northern Wisconsin
Walter S. White
1978, Circular 769
Exploration for native copper in the Keweenawan lavas of northern Wisconsin has been concentrated in areas of relatively shallow overburden that have sparse to numerous outcrops. Lack of success of this exploration suggests that if large deposits, comparable to those of northern Michigan, are present, they are more likely to...
Program for evaluating stream quality in North Carolina
Hugh B. Wilder, Clyde E. Simmons
1978, Circular 764
The design and objectives of the program for evaluating stream quality in North Carolina are described. Using water-quality and streamflow data collected since the 1940's, a study is underway to define certain variations in water quality, to quantify the effects of man 's activities on water quality, and to determine...
The case of the shrinking channels; the North Platte and Platte rivers in Nebraska
Garnett P. Williams
1978, Circular 781
Since the latter part of the 19th century, channels of North Platte and Platte Rivers in western and central Nebraska have changed considerably. In the 365-km reach from Minatare to Overton, the channel by 2969 ws only about 0.1-0.2 as wide in 1865. The 1969 channel for this reach was...

Floods of September 1970 in Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico
R.H. Roeske, Maurice E. Cooley, B. N. Aldridge
1978, Water Supply Paper 2052
During September 5-7, 1970, unusually large floods occurred in the mountains of central Arizona and in the Four Corners area of Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. Flooding also occurred in southern and northeastern Arizona. The record-high rainfall of September 5 occurred when a mass of moist tropical air from...
Application of digital profile modeling techniques to ground-water solute transport at Barstow, California
Stanley G. Robson
1978, Water Supply Paper 2050
This study investigated the use of a two-dimensional profile-oriented water-quality model for the simulation of head and water-quality changes through the saturated thickness of an aquifer. The profile model is able to simulate confined or unconfined aquifers with nonhomogeneous anisotropic hydraulic conductivity, nonhomogeneous specific storage and porosity, and nonuniform saturated...
