Effect of the proposed Cooper River rediversion on sedimentation in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina
G. G. Patterson
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4198
The rates of sedimentation and of resultant maintenance dredging in Charleston Harbor increased dramatically in the 1940s, following two major modifications to the harbor. One modification, the Santee-Cooper diversion project, caused a twentyfold increase in freshwater inflow to the harbor. The other modification was deepening of the navigation channels in...

January 1983 water levels, and data related to water-level changes, western and south-central Kansas
Marilyn E. Pabst
1983, Open-File Report 83-762
Water-level measurements were made, mostly in January 1983, in about 1,540 wells in western and south-central Kansas. The measurements were made in mid-winter when pumping was minimal and water levels had recovered, for the most part, from the effects of pumping during the previous irrigation season. Annual hydrologic data are...

Water quality at and adjacent to the south Dade County solid-waste disposal facility, Florida
D.J. McKenzie
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4003
A water-quality reconnaissance was conducted at the south Dade County solid-waste landfill near Goulds, Florida, from December 1977 through August 1978. The landfill is located directly on the unconfined Biscayne aquifer, which, in the study area, is affected by saltwater intrusion. Water samples collected from six monitor well sites at...
Hydrologic data for the Great and Denbow heaths in eastern Maine, October 1981 through October 1982
Wallace J. Nichols
1983, Open-File Report 83-865
Hydrologic data collected on the Great and Denbow Heaths, Maine, include precipitation, pan evaporation, air temperatures, streamflow, and ground water levels. These data were collected for a peat bog hydrology study conducted in cooperation with the Maine Geological Survey. The data network consisted of climate information from three rain gages,...
Stratigraphy, structure, and palinspastic synthesis of the western Brooks Range, northwestern Alaska
Charles F. Mayfield, Irvin L. Tailleur, Inyo Ellersieck
1983, Open-File Report 83-779
This report is an effort to describe and decipher the mid-Paleozoic to Lower Cretaceous stratigraphy and the orogenic evolution of the western Brooks Range. The western Brooks Range primarily is composed of stacks of complexly deformed thrust sheets that contain mostly coeval sequences of rocks with slightly different lithologic facies....

1983, Open-File Report 83-156
The recently discovered Lake Ellen kimberlite, in northern Michigan, indicates that bedrock sources of diamonds found in glacial deposits in the Great Lakes area could lie within the northern U.S. Magnetic surveys show a main kimberlite 200 m in diameter and an adjacent body 25 x 90 m(?). The kimberlite...
