Sketch maps, sections and laboratory analyses of peat resources in deposits of southern and western Maine
Cornelia Clermont Cameron, Michael K. Mullen
1983, Open-File Report 83-18
Peat deposits in southern and western Maine were investigated for their estimated potential as peat resources suitable for energy, horticultural, and agricultural uses. Fifty-six sketch maps illustrate the areal extent, thickness, and amount of commercial-quality peat. The total yield is estimated at 27,736,400 short tons air-dried peat. Ash content is...

Sourcebook of locations of geophysical surveys in tunnels and horizontal holes including results of seismic-refraction surveys, Rainier Mesa, Aqueduct Mesa, and Area 16, Nevada Test Site
R. D. Carroll, J. E. Kibler
1983, Open-File Report 83-399
Seismic refraction surveys have been obtained sporadically in tunnels in zeolitized tuff at the Nevada Test Site since the late 1950's. Commencing in 1967 and continuing to date (1982), extensive measurements of shear- and compressional-wave velocities have been made in five tunnel complexes in Rainier and Aqueduct Mesas and in...

A compilation was made, for each of the seven Indian reservations in Montana, of the availability of hydrologic data. The report consists of an annotated bibliography of ground-water resources reports, selected data for wells and springs from the data bases of the U.S. Geological Survey and Montana Bureau of Mines...
Ground water in the northern part of Clackamas County, Oregon
A.R. Leonard, C. A. Collins
1983, Open-File Report 80-1049
Northern Clackamas County is part of the rapidly growing Portland metropolitan area. Population of this 250-square-mile area increased about 50 percent between 1970 and 1976. The study area includes a small segment of the Willamette River alluvial valley near Canby, and extends northward to the Clackamas River and eastward to...
Landsat analysis for uranium exploration in Northeast Turkey
Keenan Lee
1983, Open-File Report 83-99
No uranium deposits are known in the Trabzon, Turkey region, and consequently, exploration criteria have not been defined. Nonetheless, by analogy with uranium deposits studied elsewhere, exploration guides are suggested to include dense concentrations of linear features, lineaments -- especially with northwest trend, acidic plutonic rocks, and alteration indicated by...

The mineralogy of the Snake Creek-Williams Canyon pluton, southern Snake Range, Nevada
Donald Edward Lee, Eric H. Christiansen
1983, Open-File Report 83-337
The Snake Creek-Williams Canyon pluton of the southern Snake Range crops out over an area of about 30 km 2, about 60 km southeast of Ely, Nev. This Jurassic intrusion displays large and systematic chemical and mineralogical zonation over a horizontal distance of 5 km. Major-element variations compare closely with...
The oil and gas industry of coastal Louisiana and its effects on land use and other socioeconomic patterns
Donald W. Davis, John L. Place
1983, Open-File Report 83-118
Louisiana's coastal wetlands, alone with their well-drained urbanized strips, have been significantly affected by the oil and gas industry. Onshore, more than 6,300 exploratory wells and more than 21,000 development wells were drilled in Louisiana's eight southernmost parishes between 1937 and 1977. Nearly all those wells were in wetlands or...
