Radioelement concentrations and preliminary radiometric ages of rocks of the Kigluaik Mountains, Seward Peninsula, Alaska
Carl Maurice Bunker, Carl E. Hedge, C.L. Sainsbury
1977, Open-File Report 77-735
A sequence of old metamorphic rocks including the Kigluaik and Nome Groups is exposed in the Kigluaik Mountains of the Seward Peninsula. The high-grade metasedimentary rocks give a whole-rock Rb-Sr age of 735 m.y. This late Precambrian age is believed to be the time of metamorphism. Orthogneisses, intrusive into the...
Stochastic analysis of particle movement over a dune bed
Baum K. Lee, Harvey E. Jobson
1977, Professional Paper 1040
Stochastic models are available that can be used to predict the transport and dispersion of bed-material sediment particles in an alluvial channel. These models are based on the proposition that the movement of a single bed-material sediment particle consists of a series of steps of random length separated by rest...

Proceedings of the first annual William Pecora Memorial Symposium, October 1975, Sioux Falls, South Dakota
Priscilla W. Woll, William August Fischer, editor(s)
1977, Professional Paper 1015
The U.S. Geological Survey agreed to publish the proceeding of the first annual William T. Pecora Memorial Symposium in its Professional Paper series because the subject material is related to the mission of the Survey. The usual standards for this series have been modified to accommodate the variety of styles...
Carborne radiometric survey of the Nome area, Seward Peninsula, Alaska
Robert A. Brooks, Warren Irvin Finch
1977, Open-File Report 77-472
A carborne radiometric survey was made along the accessible roads in the Nome, Alaska, area. The background radiation was generally found to be low, about 40 cps, but higher radioactivity near granite was noted. No radioactive anomalies of a magnitude greater than three times the average background were encountered....

1977, Open-File Report 77-330
Information is presented on the water resources of the White Sands Missile Range, N. Mex., that was collected during the period December 1975 to December 1976 by personnel of the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division. Data on ground-water pumpage and resulting water-level fluctuation, chemical quality and precipitation, and miscellaneous...
Quality of rivers of the United States, 1975 water year; based on the National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN)
John C. Briggs, John F. Ficke
1977, Open-File Report 78-200
The National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) was established by the U.S. Geological Survey to provide a nationally uniform basis for continuously assessing the quality of U.S. rivers. Stations generally are at the downstream end of hydrologic accounting units in order to measure the quantity and quality of water flowing...

Triaxial and consolidation testing of cores from the 1976 Atlantic Margin Coring Project of the United States Geological Survey
Paul G. Swanson, Ralph E. Brown
1977, Open-File Report 78-124
This report contains the results of triaxial and consolidation-compression testing on selected cores taken by the Atlantic Margin Coring Project, a 60-day expedition to obtain core samples by drilling beneath the Continental Shelf and Slope of the eastern United States. The coring took place in July, August and September, 1976...
Hydrologic changes after logging in two small Oregon coastal watersheds
David Dell Harris
1977, Water Supply Paper 2037
Effects of clearcut, cable logging on the hydrologic characteristics of a small coastal stream in Oregon indicate an average 181-percent increase in sediment yield over a 7-year postlogging period. Annual runoff and high-flow volumes increased 19 and 1.1 inches (480 and 28 mm), respectively, after logging in the watershed. Clearcutting...
Maximum floodflows in the conterminous United States
John R. Crippen, Conrad D. Bue
1977, Water Supply Paper 1887
Peak floodflows from thousands of observation sites within the conterminous United States were studied to provide a guide for estimating potential maximum floodflows. Data were selected from 883 sites with drainage areas of less than 10,000 square miles (25,900 square kilometers) and were grouped into regional sets. Outstanding floods for...
Elements needed in design of a ground-water-quality monitoring network in the Hawaiian Islands
Kiyoshi J. Takasaki
1977, Water Supply Paper 2041
The elements needed in the design of a ground-water-quality monitoring network in the Hawaiian Islands are described and summarized. The elements are given by geohydrologie units which represent areas where there are similarities in the occurrence of ground water or in the geology pertinent to the occurrence of ground water....
