Physical factors determining the fraction of stored energy recoverable from hydrothermal convection systems and conduction-dominated areas
Manuel Nathenson
1975, Open-File Report 75-525
This report contains background analyses for the estimates of Nathenson and Muffler (1975) of geothermal resources in hydrothermal convection systems and conduction-dominated areas. The first section discusses heat and fluid recharge potential of geothermal reservoirs. The second section analyzes the physical factors that determine the fraction of stored energy obtainable...
Some reservoir engineering calculations for the vapor-dominated system at Larderello, Italy
Manuel Nathenson
1975, Open-File Report 75-142
Various reservoir properties are calculated for the Larderello vapor-dominated system using available published data. Bottom-hole flowing properties are calculated from measured wellhead data. Whereas wellhead temperatures measured at a particular time tend to change systematically with changes in flow and pressure, calculated bottom-hole temperatures tend to be constant for two...
Experimental results of atomic absorption analyses for indium and thallium in 803 nonmagnetic concentrates from Alaska
William C. Overstreet, George L. Crenshaw, Arthur E. Hubert, Sam Rosenblum, Ricke J. Smith
1975, Open-File Report 75-253
The development in the U.S. Geological Survey of rapid methods for the determination by atomic absorption spectrophotometry of indium and thallium at limits of detection as low as 0.2 ppm each in geologic materials affords great advantages over spectrographic methods in studies concerned with values at or near the crustal...
Titanium deposits in alkalic igneous rocks
Norman Herz
1975, Open-File Report 75-35
Many types of alkalic rocks are enriched in Ti02 relative to the average for the crust. Silicate minerals in these rocks may have high Ti02 contents, but the oxides ilmenite, rutile, brookite, and perovskite are also characteristic primary phases. These tend to be higher in niobium than are the same...

Preliminary hydrogeologic appraisal of selected hydrothermal systems in northern and central Nevada
F. H. Olmsted, P.A. Glancy, J. R. Harrill, F. E. Rush, A. S. Van Denburgh
1975, Open-File Report 75-56
Several hydrothermal systems in northern and central Nevada were explored in a hydrogeologic reconnaissance. The systems studied comprise those at Stillwater and Soda Lakes-Upsal Hogback in the Carson Desert, Gerlach, Fly Ranch-Granite Range, and Double Hot Springs in the Black Rock Desert, Brady's Hot Springs, Leach Hot Springs in Grass...

Reconnaissance study of sediment transport by selected streams in the Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington, 1974 water year
Philip Richard Boucher
1975, Open-File Report 75-67
This was a reconnaissance study for information on suspended-sediment concentrations and basin yields at 21 sites on selected streams in the Yakima Indian Reservation in Washington, and two sites on nearby streams. Suspended-sediment yields were generally low relative to those indicated by data for other streams on southeastern Washington, the...

A Study of earthquake losses in the Puget Sound, Washington, area
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1975, Open-File Report 75-375
The Puget Sound Basin has a history of frequent seismic activity, including two recent damaging events. The greatest extent of urban development and the most densely populated area generally correspond to the area where the greatest energy release has been experienced. For this study two earthquakes have been simulated, each...
