Documentation of computer programs to compute and display pathlines using results from the U.S. Geological Survey modular three-dimensional finite-difference ground-water flow model
David W. Pollock
1989, Open-File Report 89-381
A particle tracking post-processing package was developed to compute three-dimensional path lines based on output from steady-state simulations obtained with the U.S. Geological Survey modular 3-dimensional finite difference groundwater flow model. The package consists of two FORTRAN 77 computer programs: (1) MODPATH, which calculates pathlines, and (2) MODPATH-PLOT, which presents...

Selected hydrologic data were collected during 1986, 1987, and 1988 by the U.S. Geological Survey for the Fountain Creek and Monument Creek basins, east-central Colorado. The data were obtained as part of a study to determine the present and projected effects of wastewater discharges on the two creeks. The data,...
Direct-current vertical electrical-resistivity soundings in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan
D.B. Westjohn, P.J. Carter
1989, Open-File Report 89-244
Ninety-three direct-current vertical electrical-resistivity soundings were conducted in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan from June through October 1987. These soundings were made to assist in mapping the depth to brine in areas where borehole resistivity logs and water-quality data are sparse or lacking. The Schlumberger array for placement of current...
Comparison of sediment transport formulas and computation of sediment discharges for the North Fork Toutle and Toutle rivers, near Mount St. Helens, Washington
S.E. Hammond
1989, Open-File Report 88-463
This preliminary report presents results of computations using twelve different sediment discharge formulas along with data from two data collection sites in the Toutle River basin. Output from six bed material discharge formulas and six bedload discharge formulas was considered. The results of the computations are presented graphically for comparison...

Surficial geologic map of the Meeker 30' x 60' quadrangle, Garfield, Moffat, Rio Blanco and Routt Counties, Colorado
Richard F. Madole
1989, IMAP 1823
This map is one of a series of four 30' x 60' surficial geologic maps (1:100,000 scale) intended to provide basic geologic information for planning for energy resource development and growth in northwestern Colorado. An effort is made to characterize all surficial materials, regardless of origin. Hence, residuum is given...
