Correlations between seismic wave velocities and physical properties of near-surface geologic materials in the southern San Francisco Bay region, California
Thomas E. Fumal
1978, Open-File Report 78-1067
To identify geologic units with distinctly different seismic responses for the purposes of seismic zonation, compressional and shear wave velocities have been measured in boreholes at 59 sites in the San Francisco Bay region in a wide range of near-surface (0-30m) geologic materials. Several physical parameters, which can be readily...
Hydrogeologic data for the Bear Creek subsurface-injection test site, St. Petersburg, Florida
John J. Hickey
1978, Open-File Report 78-853
Lithologic, hydraulic, geophysical, and water-quality data were collected at the Bear Creek subsurface-injection test site at St. Petersburg, FL. The data were collected to determine the feasibility of subsurface injection of storm runoff. An exploratory hole and five observation wells were constructed between October 1974 and April 1976. The lithology...
Techniques for the evaluation of surface wind data in terms of eolian sand drift
Steven G. Fryberger
1978, Open-File Report 78-405
The purpose of this report is to summarize briefly techniques presently in use by the U.S. Geological Survey (Denver) to analyze surface wind data in terms of eolian sand drift. These techniques were developed for regional analysis of surface wind directional and energy characteristics in connection with Chapter F "Dune...
Water resources of the central Powder River area of southeastern Montana
W. R. Miller
1978, Open-File Report 78-237
Water for domestic, stock, and public use is available from the Fox Hills-lower Hell Creek aquifer of Late Cretaceous age. Water for domestic and stock use is available from the upper part of the Hell Creek Formation of Late Cretaceous age and the lower part of the Fort Union Formation...
Hydrologic and geomorphic data from the Piceance Basin, Colorado, 1972-77
Donald G. Frickel
1978, Open-File Report 78-825
This report is a compilation of erosion measurements made at 121 channel sites and 45 hillslope sites during the period 1972-77 in the Piceance basin of northwestern Colorado. The data were collected as part of channel-morphology, sediment-transport, and erosion-rate studies being conducted in conjunction with development of the oil-shale resource...
Selected Geological Survey, U.S. Bureau of Mines, and Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys reports and maps on Alaska released during 1977, indexed by quadrangle
Edward Huntington Cobb
1978, Open-File Report 78-283
This open-file report lists all Geological Survey, U.S. Bureau of Mines, and State of Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys reports and maps on the geology, geophysics, and mineral and water resources of Alaska published or released to open files in 1977. They are listed by the quadrangles (scale...
Suspended-sediment transport in the Big Eau Pleine River Basin, central Wisconsin
S. M. Hindall
1978, Open-File Report 78-313
Suspended-sediment yields in the Big Eau Pleine River basin are low to moderate in comparison with other drainage basins in Wisconsin. Average annual yield in the Big Eau Pleine River near Stratford is 32.tons per square mile, with an annual yield ranging from 1.0 to 64 tons per square mile....
Drainage areas of streams in Arkansas--Red River basin
Marion S. Hines, John J. Yanchosek
1978, Open-File Report 78-555
Drainage areas, determined in accordance with procedures recommended by the Subcommittee on Hydrology of the Federal Inter-Agency River Basin Committee, are listed for points on streams in the Red River basin in Arkansas. Points on the streams are identified by some topographic feature and by latitude and longitude....
Overburden chemistry and mineralogy at Hanging Woman Creek, Big Horn County, Montana, and recommendations for sampling at similar sites
Todd K. Hinkley, Richard John Ebens, Josephine G. Boerngen
1978, Open-File Report 78-393
Cored overburden rock of the Fort Union Formation at the Hanging Woman Creek potential coal mine site was classified in hand specimen on the basis of color and grain size into 3 types: sandstone. siltstone-plus-shale, and dark shale. The samples were analyzed for bulk chemistry and mineralogy. In general the...
Risk analyses for a water-supply system; Occoquan Reservoir, Fairfax and Prince William counties, Virginia
Robert M. Hirsch
1978, Open-File Report 78-452
This report demonstrates two techniques for evaluating risks in the operation of a water-supply system. Both rely on reconstructed historical streamflow data to develop estimates of the probabilities of certain specific events occurring in the future. These techniques are applied to the Occoquan Reservoir which was experiencing an unprecedented low...
Premetamorphic hydrothermal origin of the Tungsten Queen vein, Hamme District, North Carolina, as indicated by mineral textures and minor structures
Michael P. Foose, John F. Slack
1978, Open-File Report 78-427
The Hamme Tungsten district is a 13-km long, 2-km wide, northeast-trending belt located in northern Vance County, North Carolina and southern Mecklenburg County, Virginia (Fig. 1). The district contains the largest quartz-wolframite-type vein deposits in the United States. Over 50 tungsten-bearing veins occur in this area (Espenshade, 1947), from which...
Preliminary geologic report on the Harris Lake area, northeastern Minnesota
M. P. Foose, Roger W. Cooper
1978, Open-File Report 78-385
Intense faulting and fracturing in the Harris Lake area) northeastern Minnesota are documented by detailed field studies. Faults are identified chiefly by the disruption of mappable layers within sequences of plagioclase and plagioclase-olivine cumulates. Most layers grade from olivine-rich bottoms to plagioclase-rich tops and were probably deposited by density currents....
