Effect of channel material on width-discharge relations for perennial streams, with emphasis on streams in Kansas -- a progress report
W. R. Osterkamp
1977, Open-File Report 77-38
Using consistent procedures for width measurement at established streamflow-gaging stations, data were compiled to develop a power-function relation between width and mean discharge for high-gradient perennial streams. High-gradient channels, which generally exhibit low variability for most factors influencing the width-discharge relation, were selected to define a standard exponent in the...
Surface sedimentary units of the Gulf of Alaska continental shelf: Montague Island to Yakutat Bay
Bruce F. Molnia
1977, Open-File Report 77-30
Four major sedimentary units occur on the sea floor of the continental shelf in the northern Gulf of Alaska. These units, defined on the basis of seismic and sedimentologic data, are: (1) Holocene sediments, (2) Holocene mind moraines, C3) Quaternary glacial marine sediments, and (4) Tertiary and Pleistocene lithified deposits. A...

A theoretical analysis of fluid flow and energy transport in hydrothermal systems
Charles R. Faust, James W. Mercer
1977, Open-File Report 77-60
A mathematical derivation for fluid flow and energy transport in hydrothermal systems is presented. Specifically, the mathematical model describes the three-dimensional flow of both single- and two-phase, single-component water and the transport of heat in porous media. The derivation begins with the point balance equations for mass, momentum, and energy....

Finite-difference model of two-dimensional, single, and two-phase heat transport in a porous medium - Version I
Charles R. Faust, James W. Mercer
1977, Open-File Report 77-234
Model documentation is presented for a two-dimensional (areal) heat-transport model capable of simulating both water- and vapor-dominated geothermal reservoirs that conform with the assumptions of the model. Finite-difference techniques are used to solve for the dependent variables pressure and enthalpy. The program is designed to simulate time-dependent problems such as...

Analyses of water, core material, and elutriate samples collected near Galliano, Louisiana: Larose to Golden Meadow, Louisiana, Hurricane Protection Project
Harold L. Leone
1977, Open-File Report 77-576
Seven core-material-sampling sites were chosen by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as possible borrow areas for fill material to be used in levee construction near Galliano La. Four receiving-water sites also were selected to represent the water that will contact the proposed levees. Analyses of selected nutrients, metals, pesticides,...
