Selected water-level records for Oklahoma, 1975-1977
Robert L. Goemaat, Dannie E. Spiser
1978, Open-File Report 78-721
A systematic program to collect water-level records in Oklahoma began in 1937. The objectives of this program are (1) to provide long-term records of water-level fluctuations in representative wells, (2) to facilitate the prediction of water-level trends and indicate future availability of ground-water supplies, and (3) to provide information for...
Potential hazards from future eruptions in the vicinity of Mount Shasta Volcano, northern California
C. Dan Miller
1978, Open-File Report 78-827
Mount Shasta has erupted, on the average, at least once per 800 years during the last 10,000 years, and about once per 600 years during the last 4,500 years. The last known eruption occurred about 200 radiocarbon years ago. Eruptions during the last 10,000 years produced lava flows and domes...

1978, Open-File Report 78-459
Monitoring activities of coal mine operations on Black Mesa were started in 1971 for the purpose of monitoring the effects of strip mining on the water resources of the area. Black Mesa is located in northeastern Arizona near the center of the Navajo Indian Reservation and is a prominent topographic...
Water supply potential of the Lake Sally System, Marquette County, Michigan
Norman G. Grannemann
1978, Open-File Report 78-1046
Six lakes in the headwaters of Ely Creek form the Lake Sally system. This system is the source of water for Ishpeming and several small communities in the central part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. During years of average precipitation, more water is used from the system than is supplied to...

A progress report on estuary modeling by the finite-element method
William G. Gray
1978, Open-File Report 78-479
Various schemes are investigated for finite-element modeling of two-dimensional surface-water flows. The first schemes investigated combine finite-element spatial discretization with split-step time stepping schemes that have been found useful in finite-difference computations. Because of the large number of numerical integrations performed in space and the large sparse matrices solved, these...
Notes on acquisition of high-resolution seismic profiles in southern Puget Sound, Washington

1978, Open-File Report 78-328
Approximately 275 km of high-resolution seismic reflection profiles were obtained in Puget Sound, Washington from the U.S. Geological Survey's research vessel DON J. MILLER from January 13 through 19, 1976. These data, recorded on microfilm, were obtained to provide information on the thickness and distribution of Quaternary deposits, to identify folds and faults that deform...

Lithologic and borehole geophysical data, Green Swamp area, Florida
Hayes F. Grubb, John W. Chappelear, James A. Miller
1978, Open-File Report 78-574
Continuous unconsolidated cores were obtained at 74 sites in the Green Swamp are to evaluate the potential for downward leakage to the Floridian aquifer. Depth of the core holes ranged from 21 to 227 feet and averaged about 87 feet., Lithology was determined by microscopic examination of the core from...

1978, Open-File Report 78-335
Water-level measurements were made annually in 115 wells in Indian Wells Valley, Kern, Inyo, and San Bernardino Counties, Calif., in 1974-76. In the Inyokern area the average water-level decline was 2.0 ft for two wells between October 1973 and November 1976. In the intermediate area the average decline was 6.2...
