Magnetic Titanohematite Minerals in Uranium-Bearing Sandstones
Richard L. Reynolds
1977, Open-File Report 77-355
Detrital grains of the rhombohedral ilmenite (FeT1O3)--hematite (Fe2O3) solid solution series (titanohematites) have been identified by thermomagnetic, reflection microscopic, and X-ray diffraction analysis in six uranium-bearing sandstones in the western United States. Many of the titanohematites are ferrimagnetic and have Curie temperatures ranging from about 70 Deg C to 220...

Flood-plain delineation for Accotink Creek Basin, Fairfax County, Virginia
Pat L. Soule
1977, Open-File Report 76-442
Water-surface profiles of the 25-year and 100-year floods maps on which the 25-, 50-, and 100-year flood limits are delineated for streams in the Accotink Creek basin are presented in this report. Excluded are segments of Accotink Creek within the Fort Belvoir Military Reservation. The techniques used in the computation...
Heavy metal discharges into Shasta Lake and Keswick reservoirs on the upper Sacramento River, California; a reconnaissance during low flow
D. Kirk Nordstrom, Everett A. Jenne, Robert C. Averett
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-49
Four out of seventeen streams entering the Shasta-Keswick Reservoir system in California contribute up to 94 percent of the heavy metal load into the upper Sacramento River under the low flow conditions which existed in the fall of 1974. Of these four streams, three contain acid mine drainage, with Spring...

Channel erosion surveys along the TAPS route, Alaska, 1977
Robert M. Loeffler, Joseph M. Childers
1977, Open-File Report 78-611
Channel surveys were made along the trans-Alaska pipeline system (TAPS) route during 1977 at the same 28 sites that were studied in 1976. In addition, a new site at pipeline mile 22 near Deadhorse (alignment No 134) along the Sagavanirktok River was put under surveillance. Except for changes wrought by...

Application of a rainfall-runoff model in estimating flood peaks for selected small natural drainage basins in Texas
B.C. Massey, Elmer E. Schroeder
1977, Open-File Report 77-792
A parametric rainfall-runoff simulation model was used to synthesize long-term records of annual peak discharges for small natural drainage basins in Texas. Optimum model-parameter values were determined for each of the 40 basins studied by using short-term rainfall, evaporation, and discharge data. The calibrated model was used in conjunction with...
Background studies for appraising subsidence in the Texas Gulf Coast region
B. E. Lofgren
1977, Open-File Report 77-412
Significant ground movement has accompanied the extraction of large quantities of fluids from the subsurface at many localities. The possibility of both horizontal and vertical ground movement--subsidence, fissuring, growth faulting--in the Gulf Coast region, caused by the withdrawal of large volumes of deep formation fluids, is of major concern.Although widespread...

Time of travel of solutes in selected reaches of Ohio streams, 1973 and 1975
Arthur O. Westfall
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-116
The basic field data for time-of-travel measurements on six streams in Ohio are presented. In general, additional data on stream cross sections, tributary inflows, and chemical analyses for mainstream and tributary flows are given. Insufficient data were obtained to establish time-distance or time-discharge relationships....

Shelled benthic fauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea
Dennis M. Mann
1977, Open-File Report 77-672
The purposes of this study were to identify the benthic shelled infauna and epifauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea, compile species lists and distribution maps, determine recurrent groups of species (communities), and examine the environmental parameters that may control the distribution of the faunal groups. The study was partly supported...

1977, Open-File Report 77-865
The U.S. Geological Survey has recently completed the installation of a seismic network around the Albuquerque Basin in New Mexico. The network consists of two seismometer arrays, a thirteen-station array monitoring an area of approximately 28,000 km 2 and an eight-element array monitoring the area immediately adjacent to the Albuquerque...
Water-level changes in the northern high plains of Colorado, 1964 to 1976 and 1972 to 1976
