Implementation plan for Bolivian Mineral Exploration Fund
Harold Kirkemo
1978, Open-File Report 79-597
Bolivia ranks second among world producers of tin and antimony, and first in bismuth production. Mineral exports in 1975 were valued at $314.2 million, nearly 60 percent of the value of all exports, and petroleum product exports totalled nearly $157 million, or 30 percent of the total. Tin accounted for...

FORTRAN programs for calculating nonlinear seismic ground response in two dimensions
W. B. Joyner
1978, Open-File Report 78-287
The programs described here were designed for calculating the nonlinear seismic response of a two-dimensional configuration of soil underlain by a semi-infinite elastic medium representing bedrock. There are two programs. One is for plane strain motions, that is, motions in the plane perpendicular to the long axis of the structure,...

The structure and stratigraphy of the Pen Argyl Member of the Martinsburg Formation in Lehigh and Berks counties, Pennsylvania
Gary George Lash
1978, Open-File Report 78-391
The Pen Argyl Member, the upper claystone slate member of the Martinsburg Formation, was studied in three quadrangles in Lehigh and Berks Counties, Pennsylvania. Graptolites collected from the Pen Argyl Member at Lehigh Gap indicate a lower Upper Ordovician (Edenian-Maysvillian) age for the Pen Argyl Member. The Pen Argyl Member...

Determination of peak discharge from rainfall data for urbanized basins, Wichita, Kansas
C.O. Peek, P. R. Jordan
1978, Open-File Report 78-974
Rainfall and runoff data from urbanized drainage basins in the Wichita area, Kansas, were used to evaluate the Soil Conservation Service synthetichydrograph method of computing flood hydrographsfrom rainfall data. The method was tested on six basins where the impervious surface ranged from 11 percent on the least urbanized basin to...
Preliminary catalog of earthquakes in northern Imperial Valley, California, January 1978-March 1978
Gary S. Fuis, C.E. Johnson, D.J. Jenkins
1978, Open-File Report 78-671
The northern section of the Imperial Valley region in southern California is an area of known geothermal resources and an area of high seismicity. To study in detail the relationship between geothermal areas and earthquakes, the U.S. Geological Survey has been monitoring seismicity in the Imperial Valley with a 16-station...
Unsteady streamflow simulation using a linear implicit finite-difference model
Larry F. Land
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-59
A computer program for simulating one-dimensional subcritical, gradually varied, unsteady flow in a stream has been developed and documented. Given upstream and downstream boundary conditions and channel geometry data, roughness coefficients, stage, and discharge can be calculated anywhere within the reach as a function of time.The program uses a linear...
