Fire-induced water-repellent soils, an annotated bibliography
M.A. Kalendovsky, S.H. Cannon
1997, Open-File Report 97-720
The development and nature of water-repellent, or hydrophobic, soils are important issues in evaluating hillslope response to fire. The following annotated bibliography was compiled to consolidate existing published research on the topic. Emphasis was placed on the types, causes, effects and measurement techniques of water repellency, particularly with respect to...

Revised long-term creep rates on the Hayward Fault, Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, California
James J. Lienkaemper, Jon S. Galehouse
1997, Open-File Report 97-690
Although the Hayward fault is a source of major earthquakes, it also creeps or slips aseismically, and has done so steadily for several decades (certainly since 1921 and probably since 1869). Most of the fault creeps between 3 and 6 mm/yr, except for a 4- to 6-km-long segment near its...
Estimated water use, by county, in North Carolina, 1995
D. A. Walters
1997, Open-File Report 97-599
Data on water use in North Carolina were compiled for 1995 as part of a cooperative agreement between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Division of Water Resources of the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Data were compiled from a number of Federal, State, and private sources...
Classification and Mapping of Agricultural Land for National Water-Quality Assessment
Robert J. Gilliom, Gail P. Thelin
1997, Circular 1131
Agricultural land use is one of the most important influences on water quality at national and regional scales. Although there is great diversity in the character of agricultural land, variations follow regional patterns that are influenced by environmental setting and economics. These regional patterns can be characterized by the distribution...
Analysis of borehole televiewer measurements in the Vorotilov drillhole, Russia - First results

1997, Tectonophysics (275) 261-272
In the Eurasian part of the World Stress Map almost the whole region east of the Tornquist-Teisseyre line is terra incognita. The closure of this information gap is of fundamental importance to the understanding of the geodynamics of the Eurasian continent. A detailed analysis of stress-induced wellbore breakouts has been...
Correlation of Miocene sequences and hydrogeologic units, New Jersey Coastal Plain
P. J. Sugarman, K.G. Miller
1997, Sedimentary Geology (108) 3-18
We have developed a Miocene sequence stratigraphic framework using data from recently drilled boreholes in the New Jersey Coastal Plain. Sequences are shallowing upward, unconformity-bounded units; fine-grained shelf and prodelta sediments grade upward to delta front and shallow-marine sands, corresponding to confining bed-aquifer couplets. By dating Miocene sequences using Sr-isotope...

Ground-water and surface-water elevations in the Fairbanks International Airport area, Alaska, 1990-96, and selected geohydrologic report references
David V. Claar, Michael R. Lilly
1997, Open-File Report 97-597
Ground-water and surface-water elevation data were collected at 61 sites from 1990 to 1996 by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, Fairbanks International Airport. Water-surface elevations were measured in 41 ground-water observation wells and at 20 surface-water sites to help characterize...

Water-quality assessment of the Rio Grande Valley, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas; water-quality data for water-column, suspended-sediment, and bed-material samples collected at selected surface-water sites in the upper Rio Grande Basin, June and September 1994
L.K. Miller, R.L. Moquino, B.A. Hill
1997, Open-File Report 97-644
As part of the Rio Grande Valley National Water-Quality Assessment Program, samples were collected at 34 sites in the upper Rio Grande Basin in Colorado and New Mexico during June and September 1994. The focus of the sampling was on trace-element concentrations in the water column, suspended sediment, and...

Low-flow water-quality and discharge data for lined channels in Northeast Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1990 to 1994
R.L. Gold, Robert McBreen
1997, Open-File Report 97-811
The water resources of the Albuquerque metropolitan area are under increasing scrutiny by Federal and State regulators. Because of a lack of available low-flow data for use in addressing potential water-quality problems, a project was established to collect low-flow water-quality and discharge data. The project was initiated under a current...
