Albert J. Heinitz
1977, Open-File Report 77-209
Flood information for the Big Creek basin in Linn County, Iowa, should be of use to those concerned with the design of bridges and other structures on the flood plains of the streams. Water-surface profiles for the flood of May 1974 are given for Big Creek and its major tributaries,...
Summary of the geology and physical properties of the Climax Stock, Nevada Test Site
Florian Maldonado
1977, Open-File Report 77-356
The Climax stock is a composite stock of Cretaceous age, composed of quartz monzonite and granodiorite, which intrudes sedimentary rocks of Paleozoic and Precambrian age. Tertiary rocks consisting of tuff, welded tuff, and breccia overlie the stock and sedimentary rocks. Hydrothermal alteration of the granodiorite and quartz monzonite is found mainly...
Preliminary analysis of lineaments and engineering properties of bedrock, Penobscot Bay area, Maine
Fitzhugh T. Lee, Dennis W. O’Leary, Sharon F. Diehl
1977, Open-File Report 77-886
A remote sensing study of coastal and near coastal Maine was undertaken to identify bedrock features of possible importance to construction. Major lineaments were identified that separate the region into four distinct terrains. Within each terrain, smaller lineaments and other physiographic features show distinctive and consistent patterns, reflecting similarities in...
Hydrologic reconnaissance of the eastern North Slope, Alaska, 1975
Joseph M. Childers, C. E. Sloan, J.P. Meckel, J. W. Nauman
1977, Open-File Report 77-492
The part of the Arctic coast of Alaska between the Colville River and the Canadian boundary was visited in April, August, and November 1975. The study area is characterized by its cold climate and is largely uninhabited, but oil and gas discoveries have spurred development of parts of the area....

Shelled benthic fauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea
Dennis M. Mann
1977, Open-File Report 77-672
The purposes of this study were to identify the benthic shelled infauna and epifauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea, compile species lists and distribution maps, determine recurrent groups of species (communities), and examine the environmental parameters that may control the distribution of the faunal groups. The study was partly supported...

Late Cenozoic stratigraphic units, northeastern San Joaquin Valley, California
Denis E. Marchand, Alan Allwardt
1977, Open-File Report 77-748
Recent mapping of late Tertiary and Quaternary deposits in the northeastern San Joaquin Valley has shown the need for clarification, revision, and subdivision of some of the previously mapped stratigraphic units. We propose a uniform nomenclature for deposits younger than the Mehrten Formation in this region. The Laguna Formation (late...
Hydrologic data for the Vamoosa Aquifer, east-central Oklahoma
Joseph J. D’Lugosz, Roger G. McClaflin
1977, Open-File Report 77-487
Most of the data presented in this report were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey as part of a study of the geohydrology of the Vamoosa aquifer, in east-central Oklahoma, in cooperation with the Oklahoma Geological Survey. Some of the data listed in the tables were collected by Bingham and...

Chemical, isotopic, and gas compositions of selected thermal springs in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah
Robert H. Mariner, T. S. Presser, William C. Evans
1977, Open-File Report 77-654
Twenty-seven thermal springs in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah were sampled for detailed chemical and isotopic analysis. The springs issue sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, or sodium mixed-anion waters of near neutral (6.2) to alkaline (9.2) pH. High concentrations of fluoride, more than 8 milligrams per liter, occur in Arizona in...
Hot springs of the central Sierra Nevada, California
Robert H. Mariner, T. S. Presser, William C. Evans
1977, Open-File Report 77-559
Thermal springs of the central Sierra Nevada issue dilute to slightly saline sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, or sodium mixed-anion waters ranging in pH from 6.4 to 9.3. The solubility of chalcedony appears to control the silica concentration in most of the spring waters. Fales Hot Springs may be associated with...
