Proposed hydrologic analyses of streamflow for Brazil
Henry Chiles Riggs
1974, Open-File Report 74-328
The objective of my assignment was to recommend what hydrologic analyses might be made using the records of stream discharge soon to be available at the gaging stations in Brazil. To attain this objective I (1) examined the streamflow records in part of the Rio Jacui basin in the state...
Preliminary report on the geology of the Solok Quadrangle, West Sumatra
Keith Robinson
1974, Open-File Report 74-216
This report is a brief description of the geology of the Solok quadrangle in West Sumatra. It is based on work done by the writer from April 27 to October 14, 1971, as part of the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) Cooperative Project with the Geological Survey of Indonesia (GSI)....
Effects of local geology on ground motion in the San Francisco Bay region, California: A continued study
James F. Gibbs, Roger D. Borcherdt
1974, Open-File Report 74-222
Measurements of ground motion generated by nuclear explosions in Nevada have been completed for 99 locations in the San Francisco Bay region, California. The seismograms, Fourier amplitude spectra, spectral amplification curves for the signal, and the Fourier amplitude spectra of the seismic noise are presented for 60 locations. Analog amplifications,...
Viking rover studies
Harold Masursky, Joseph M. Boyce, Arthur L. Dial
1974, Open-File Report 74-212
Intensive study of Mariner 9 data has resulted in an understanding--although far from complete--of the geologic processes affecting the Martian surface and of its history of development. The results are briefly summarized in the following section. The second section consists of geologic studies of four widely separated areas on Mars...
South Carolina seismic program
Arthur C. Tarr, Kenneth W. King
1974, Open-File Report 74-58
The principal objectives of the South Carolina Seismic Program are to: (1) provide essential high-quality raw seismic data for earthquakes in South Carolina; (2) compute accurate estimates of event and source parameters; (3) provide a catalog of events and source parameters that will be used in further evaluation of seismic...
Recommendations for the study and appraisal of oil-shale deposits in Jordan
Vernon Emanuel Swanson
1974, Open-File Report 74-197
A geologic-geochemical evaluation conducted October 5-24, 1968, both in the field area and in the laboratories has shown the Upper Cretaceous oil shale in the El Lajjun area of central Jordan to be one of Jordan's major natural mineral resources. Continued but slightly modified investigations are strongly recommended to determine...
Geologic map of the Monrovia Quadrangle, Liberia
Charles H. Thorman
1974, Open-File Report 74-305
As part of a program undertaken cooperatively by the Liberian Geological Survey and the U. S. Geological Survey, under the sponsorship of the Government of Liberia and the Agency for International Development, U. S. Department of State, Liberia was mapped by geologic and geophysical methods during the period 1965 to...
Average composition of agriculture soils in Missouri counties
Ronald R. Tidball
1974, Open-File Report 74-66
Samples of agricultural soils were collected extensively throughout the State of Missouri for the purpose of evaluating the distribution of elements in soils of the State. Only soils used for agricultural purposes during the year 1970 or before were sampled. It is recognized that these soils may be altered chemically...
An assessment of areal and temporal variations in streamflow quality using selected data from the National Stream Quality Accounting Network
Timothy Doak Steele, Edward J. Gilroy, Richard O. Hawkinson
1974, Open-File Report 74-217
Streamflow chemical-quality data and stream-temperature data at 88 stations throughout the United States and Puerto Rico were analyzed to develop and to evaluate methodologies for the general assessment of the variation of the Nation's streamflow-quality conditions in space and over time. The spatial variation is described by the use of...
Geothermal gas sampling methods
Alfred Hemingway Truesdell, K.L. Pering
1974, Open-File Report 74-361
The following method of geothermal gas collection meets our needs for chemical and isotopic gas analyses, requires a minimum of special equipment in the field, and provides field analytical data of assistance in a sampling program....
Geology of the Juazohn Quadrangle, Liberia
Russell G. Tysdal
1974, Open-File Report 74-309
As part of a program undertaken cooperatively by the Liberian Geological Survey (LGS) and the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS), under the sponsorship of the Government of Liberia and the Agency for International Development, U. S. Department of State, Liberia was mapped by geologic and geophysical methods during the period...
Gravel resources, urbanization, and future land use, Front Range Urban Corridor, Colorado
James M. Soule, Harold R. Fitch
1974, Open-File Report 74-178
An assessment of gravel needs in Front Range Urban Corridor markets to 2000 A.D., based on forecast population increases and urbanization, indicates that adequate resources to meet anticipated needs are potentially available, if future land use does not preclude their extraction. Because of urban encroachment onto gravel-bearing lands, this basic...
A preliminary report on a zone containing thick lignite beds, Denver Basin, Colorado
Paul E. Soister
1974, Open-File Report 74-27
A zone of lignite beds of Paleocene age in the Denver Formation (Upper Cretaceous and Paleocene) lies about 800-1,500 feet above the well-known and extensively mined coal beds of the Laramie Formation (Upper Cretaceous). The zone is a few hundred to as much as 500 feet thick. Where lignite beds...
