Allan D. Randall
1978, Open-File Report 78-304
Ground water in an area in Olean, New York contains high concentrations of nitrogen compounds, which are being slowly flushed from the aquifer as the ground water flows toward a nearby well field where it is pumped out. Construction and regular use of a new production well in the area...
Use and interpretation of strong-motion records from highway bridges
J.D. Raggett, Christopher Rojahn
1978, Open-File Report 78-707
This report describes how strong-motion records obtained from the earthquake-induced motions of highway bridges may be analyzed for use in the evaluation of bridge designs and bridge design procedures.This report is divided into five principal sections. The first section describes strong-motion instrumentation and strong-motion records. In the second section, a...

ADEPT: a program to estimate depth to magnetic basement from sampled magnetic profiles
Jeffrey D. Phillips
1978, Open-File Report 79-367
A fortran program computes depth to magnetic basement from the spatially varying autocorrelation function of a sampled magnetic profile. The depth calculation assumes a particular form for the autocorrelation function, and this assumption is tested against the measured autocorrelation function in order to reject invalid depth estimates....
