1977, Open-File Report 77-739
The exploration for and development of ground water described in this report consisted of the drilling and testing of 22 holes and the conversion of 8 of the holes into production wells on the island of Moen, Truk Islands, in the period November 1975 to July 1976. The objective of...
Spokane Valley-Rathdrum Prairie aquifer, Washington and Idaho
B. W. Drost, Harold R. Seitz
1977, Open-File Report 77-829
The Spokane Valley-Rathdrum Prairie aquifer is composed of unconsolidated Quaternary glaciofluvial deposits underlying an area of about 350 square miles. Transmissivities in the aquifer range from about 0.13 million to 11 million feet squared per day and ground-water velocities exceed 60 feet per day in some areas. The water-table gradient...

Comprehensive monitoring of meteorology, hydraulics, and thermal regime of the San Diego Aqueduct, California
Harvey E. Jobson, Alex M. Sturrock
1976, Open-File Report 76-628
Water temperature, as well as meteorologic and hydraulic variables which influence the energy budget of the San Diego Aqueduct in southern California, were continuously monitored for a 1-year period beginning July 24, 1973. Incoming solar and atmospheric radiation, windspeed and direction, water temperature, and wet- and dry-bulb air temperatures were...

Digital-simulation model of the Wenonah-Mount Laurel Aquifer in the coastal plain of New Jersey
Bronius Nemickas
1976, Open-File Report 75-672
A digital computer-simulation model of the Wenonah-Mount Laurel aquifer is used to evaluate the aquifer's capabilities of meeting the projected future demands and to study the cause of the rapidly declining water levels. The modelled area includes 1,500 square miles (3,885 square kilometres) of the New Jersey Coastal Plain and...
Hard rock uranium potential in Alaska
Thomas P. Miller
1976, Open-File Report 76-246
Discussing the potential of "hardrock" (i.e., non-sedimentary type) uranium deposits in a 586,000 mi2 portion of the North America Cordillera is a difficult task compounded by the fact that the remoteness of much of the region and the logistical difficulties have resulted in only reconnaissance geologic information being available for...

All Geological Survey reports and maps on Alaska published or released to open files during 1975 are listed by the quadrangles (scale 1:250,000) into which Alaska has been divided for topographic mapping (p. 3). Also listed are U.S. Bureau of Mines reports on the geology and mineral resources of Alaska,...
Reconnaissance of the water resources of the upper Klickitat River Basin, Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington
Denzel R. Cline
1976, Open-File Report 75-518
Large quantities of ground water and surface water are available in Washington County. Major sources of ground water are the Gosport Sand and Lisbon Formation undifferentiated, the Miocene Series undifferentiated, and alluvium and low terrace deposits. The Miocene, the most productive source of ground water, will yield 0.5 to 1.0...
Laboratory hydraulic calibration of the Helley-Smith bedload sediment sampler
Leroy Druffel, W. W. Emmett, V.R. Schneider, J. V. Skinner
1976, Open-File Report 76-752
The Helley-Smith bedload sampler operates on a pressure-difference principle and consists of an expanding nozzle, nylon-mesh sample bag , and external components for structural integrity and stability under flow conditions. The Helley-Smith bedload sampler has a hydraulic efficiency, the ratio of the mean velocity in the sampler nozzle to the...
