Mapping the lateral boundaries of a cooling basaltic lava lake, Kilauea Iki, Hawaii
Vincent J. Flanigan, Charles J. Zablocki
1977, Open-File Report 77-94
Two types of electromagnetic (EM) profiling techniques were used to delineate the surface projection of the edges of the still-molten basaltic lava lens that exists in Kilauea Iki Crater, Hawaii. These studies were made as part of an intensive geophysical program aimed at defining the overall configuration of the liquid...

Artificial-recharge tests in Upper Black Squirrel Creek basin, Jimmy Camp Valley, and Fountain Valley, El Paso County, Colorado
P.J. Emmons
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-11
Artificial-recharge tests were conducted in the alluvium in upper Black Squirrel Creek basin, the alluvium in Jimmy Camp Valley, and in the alluvium overlying the Widefield aquifer which is located in an ancestral channel in Fountain Valley, Colo. Nine artificial-recharge pits with areas of approximately 9,200 square feet each were...
Ground-water data for the Drewsey Resource Area, Harney and Malheur counties, Oregon
Joseph B. Gonthier, C. A. Collins, David B. Anderson
1977, Open-File Report 77-741
Appraisals of the resources of selected management areas in eastern Oregon are being made by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. To provide needed hydrologic information the Bureau of Land Management requested the U.S. Geological Survey Water Resources Division to inventory ground-water data for the Drewsey Resource Area. Included in...

Paleomagnetic investigation of late Quaternary sediments of south San Francisco Bay, California
John W. Hillhouse
1977, Open-File Report 77-457
Paleomagnetic inclinations of the Late Quaternary sediments of South San Francisco Bay were determined from bore hole samples collected near Dumbarton Bridge. The sediments consist of estuarine muds and nonmarine sand deposits, floored by bedrock of the Mesozoic Franciscan Formation. - Beneath Dumbarton Bridge the entire sedimentary fill is normally...
Sub-sea temperatures and a simple tentative model for offshore permafrost at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska
Arthur H. Lachenbruch, B. Vaughn Marshall
1977, Open-File Report 77-395
In this report, we present temperatures measured in three holes drilled into the sea bed in the Prudhoe Bay region and a tentative interpretation of them in terms of the gross thermal regime and shoreline history of the area. The new holes (PB-1, PB-2, and PB-3, Figure 1) were drilled...

1977, Circular 765
Estimates of water use in the United States in 1975 indicate that an average of about 420 bgd (billion gallons per day) about 1,900 gallons per capita per day was withdrawn for the four principal off-channel uses which are (1) publicsupply (for domestic, commercial, and industrial uses), (2) rural (domestic...
Evaporation from seven reservoirs in the Denver water-supply system, central Colorado
John F. Ficke, D. Briane Adams, T. W. Danielson
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-114
Seven reservoirs in central Colorado, operated by the Denver Board of Water Commissioners, were studied during 1967-73 to determine evaporation losses. These reservoirs, Elevenmile Canyon, Dillon, Gross, Antero, Cheesman, Williams Fork, and Ralston, are located on both sides of the Continental Divide. Methods for computing evaporation include energy-budget, mass-transfer, and...
