Geohydrologic reconnaissance of the Soquel-Aptos area, Santa Cruz County, California
J. P. Akers, J.J. Hickey
1967, Open-File Report 67-3
This report summarizes existing knowledge on the geohydrology of the Soquel-Aptos area, near, and including the eastern part, of Santa Cruz, California, and outlines work necessary for making a complete appraisal of the water resources of the area.The area is underlain mostly by marine and continental sedimentary deposits of Tertiary...
Progress report: Radionuclide transport in the Pasco to Vancouver, Washington, reach of the Columbia River, July 1962 to September 1963
William L. Haushild, Richard W. Perkins, Herbert H. Stevens Jr., George R. Dempster Jr., Jerry L. Glenn
1967, Open-File Report 67-108
The disposition of radionuclides in and along the 380-mile reach of the Columbia River between the Hanford, Wash., Atomic Energy Commission reactors (the major radionuclide source) and the head of the estuary is a first step in understanding the environmental cycling and ultimate fate of the discharged radioactive materials. Preliminary...
Water resources of the Marquette Iron Range area, Michigan
Sulo Werner Wiitala, Thomas Gwyn Newport, Earl L. Skinner
1967, Water Supply Paper 1842
Large quantities of water are needed in the beneficiation and pelletizing processes by which the ore mined from low-grade iron-formations is upgraded into an excellent raw material for the iron and steel industry. Extensive reserves of low-grade iron-formation available for development herald an intensification of the demands upon the area's...
Water requirements of the iron and steel industry
Faulkner B. Walling, Louis Ethelbert Otts Jr.
1967, Water Supply Paper 1330-H
Twenty-nine steel plants surveyed during 1957 and 1958 withdrew from various sources about 1,400 billion gallons of water annually and produced 40.8 million tons of ingot steel. This is equivalent to about 34,000 gallons of water per ton of steel. Fifteen iron ore mines and fifteen ore concentration plants together...
Seismic measurements of explosions in the Tatum Salt Dome, Mississippi
Roger D. Borcherdt, J. H. Healy, W. H. Jackson, D.R. Warren
1967, Open-File Report 67-24
Project Sterling provided for the detonation of a nuclear device in the cavity resulting from the Salmon nuclear explosion in the Tatum salt dome in southern Mississippi. It also provided for a high explosive (HE) comparison shot in a nearby drill hole. The purpose of the experiment was to gather...
Historic surface faulting in continental United States and adjacent parts of Mexico
M. G. Bonilla
1967, Open-File Report 67-23
This report summarizes geometric aspects of approximately 35 instances of historic faulting of the ground surface in the continental United States and adjacent parts of Mexico. This information is of immediate importance in the selection and evaluation of sites for vital structures such as nuclear power plants. The data are...
Roughness characteristics of natural channels
Harry Hawthorne Barnes
1967, Water Supply Paper 1849
Color photographs and descriptive data are presented for 50 stream channels for which roughness coefficients have been determined. All hydraulic computations involving flow in open channels require an evaluation of the roughness characteristics of the channel. In the absence of a satisfactory quantitative procedure this evaluation remains chiefly an art....
A comparison of methods of estimating potential evapotranspiration from climatological data in arid and subhumid environments
R.W. Cruff, T. H. Thompson
1967, Water Supply Paper 1839-M
This study compared potential evapotranspiration, computed from climatological data by each of six empirical methods, with pan evaporation adjusted to equivalent lake evaporation by regional coefficients. The six methods tested were the Thornthwaite, U.S. Weather Bureau (a modification of the Permian method), Lowry-Johnson, Blaney-Criddle, Lane, and Hamon methods. The test...
Geology and petrology of the Greenville quadrangle, Piscataquis and Somerset Counties, Maine
Gilbert H. Espenshade, Eugene L. Boudette
1967, Bulletin 1241-F
In the Greenville quadrangle, west-central Maine, slate, siltstone, and sandstone (calcareous and noncalcareous) of probable Silurian to Early Devonian age are intruded by a large mafic pluton and two granitic stocks of probable Early Devonian age. Ages of the sedimentary rocks are based upon tentative correlations with fossiliferous beds in...
Delaware River basin - water data stations, 1967
D.W. Moody, F.L. Shaefer
1967, Open-File Report 67-160
This report presents information on station-type activities for acquiring surface-water, ground-water, and quality of water data in the Delaware River basin. The information was collected in 1966 through field offices of the Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey as part of a pilot study for the Office of Water Data...
Kansas River, Bonner Springs to mouth - Degradation of channel
L.W. Furness, C.D. Albert, R. B. Leonard
1967, Open-File Report 67-93
This report has been prepared at the request of the Kansas Water Resources Board under provisions of a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Geological Survey dated July 1, 1966, for water-resources investigations. The Kansas Water Resources Board has been advised of a recent serious degradation of the low-water channel of...
Reconnaissance of the chemical quality of surface waters of the Neches River basin, Texas
Leon S. Hughes, Donald K. Leifeste
1967, Water Supply Paper 1839-A
The kinds and quantities of minerals dissolved in the surface water of the Neches River basin result from such environmental factors as geology, streamflow patterns and characteristics, and industrial influences. As a result of high rainfall in the basin, much of the readily soluble material has been leached from the...
General field and office procedures for indirect discharge measurements
M. A. Benson, Tate Dalrymple
1967, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A1
The discharge of streams is usually measured by the current-meter method. During flood periods, however, it is frequently impossible or impractical to measure the discharges by this method when they occur. Consequently, many peak discharges must be determined after the passage of the flood by indirect methods, such as slope-area,...
Floods on White Rock Creek at Dallas, Texas in 1962 and 1964
F. H. Ruggles, Carter R. Gilbert
1967, Hydrologic Atlas 238
This atlas presents data pertaining to the regimen of flooding along White Rock Creek and its tributaries, Spanky Branch, Floyd Branch, and Cottonwood Creek at Dallas, Texas. The map and flood data were prepared to aid those concerned with, and responsible for, the safe and yet extensive use of the...
