High-temperature, large-volume, lavalike ash-flow tuffs without calderas in southwestern Idaho
E. B. Ekren, David H. McIntyre, Earl H. Bennett
1984, Professional Paper 1272
Rhyolitic rocks were erupted from vents in and adjacent to the Owyhee Mountains and Owyhee Plateau of southwestern Idaho from 16 m.y. ago to about 10 m.y. ago. They were deposited on a highly irregular surface developed on a variety of basement rocks that include granitic rocks of Cretaceous age,...

Fluorometric procedures for dye tracing
James E. Wilson Jr., Ernest D. Cobb, Frederick A. Kilpatrick
1984, Open-File Report 84-234
This manual describes the current fluorometric procedures used by the U.S. Geological Survey in dye tracer studies such as time of travel, dispersion, reaeration, and dilution-type discharge measurements. The outstanding characteristics of dye tracing are: (1) the low detection and measurement limits, and (2) the simplicity and accuracy of measuring...
