Sedimentation in Santa Margarita Lake, San Luis Obispo County, California
G. Douglas Glysson
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-56
The 1975 storage capacity of Santa Margarita Lake in San Luis Obispo County, Calif., was 41,400 acre-feet, a decrease of 3,400 acre-feet since 1941. Usable capacity decreased from 25,800 to 23,000 acre-feet. Long-term sediment yield for the Salinas River basin upstream from the lake was estimated at 1,150 tons per...
Ground-water levels in observation wells in Oklahoma, 1975
Robert L. Goemaat
1977, Open-File Report 77-238
The objectives of the observation-well program are (1) to provide long-term records of water-level fluctuations in representative wells, (2) to facilitate the prediction of water-level trends and indicate the future availability of ground-water supplies, and (3) to provide information for use in basic research. These selected records serve as a...
Ice on rivers and lakes: a bibliographic essay
Eleanore R. Ficke, John F. Ficke
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-95
Ice on rivers and lakes has many important influences on design and construction of structures, operation of shipping, flow and circulation, water quality, and other factors related to the use of the water resources. Human interest in understanding these influences has led to many programs of data collection, research, and...
Large landslides, composed of megabreccia, interbedded in Miocene basin deposits, southeastern Arizona
Medora Louise Hooper Krieger
1977, Professional Paper 1008
The landslides in the Kearny and El Capitan Mountain quadrangles, Pinal and Gila Counties, Ariz., are tabular or lens like masses of megabreccia enclosed in Miocene basin deposits. The megabreccias within individual slide blocks are composed of pervasively brecciated Precambrian and younger formations that remain in normal stratigraphic sequence, indicating...
Estimated use of water in the United States in 1975
Charles Richard Murray, E. Bodette Reeves
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in 1975 indicate that an average of about 420 bgd (billion gallons per day) about 1,900 gallons per capita per day was withdrawn for the four principal off-channel uses which are (1) publicsupply (for domestic, commercial, and industrial uses), (2) rural (domestic...
Late diagenetic indicators of buried oil and gas
Terrence J. Donovan, Mary C. Dalziel
1977, Open-File Report 77-817
At least three hydrocarbon seepage mechanisms are interpreted to operate over oil and gas fields. These are: (1) effusion ofh ydrocarbons through inadequate caprocks and along faults and fractures, (2) low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons dissolved in water moving vertically through capping shales as a result of a hydrodynamic or chemical potential drive,...
Preliminary flood-frequency relations for urban streams, Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia
Harold G. Golden
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-57
A method is presented for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods for urban streams in metropolitan Atlanta. The method is based on adjustments to the natural stream flood-frequency and rainfall-frequency characteristics of the local area as defined by urban flood studies in other areas.The effects of urbanization on flood-peak...
Geological and geochemical investigations of uranium occurrences in the Arrastre Lake area of the Medicine Bow Mountains, Wyoming
W. Roger Miller, R. S. Houston, K. E. Karlstrom, D.M. Hopkins, W. H. Ficklin
1977, Open-File Report 77-92
Metasedimentary rocks of Precambrian X age in and near the Snowy Range wilderness study area of southeastern Wyoming are lithologically and chronologically similar to those on the north shore of Lake Huron in Canada. The rocks in Canada contain major deposits of uranium in quartz-pebble conglomerates near the base of...
