Research in the Geysers-Clear Lake geothermal area, Northern California
Robert J. McLaughlin, Julie M. Donnelly-Nolan, editor(s)
1981, Professional Paper 1141
The Geysers-Clear Lake area is one of two places in the world where major vapor-dominated hydrothermal reservoirs are commercially exploited for electric power production. Because energy can be extracted more efficiently from steam than from hot water, vapor-dominated systems are preferable for electric power generation, although most geothermal electric power...

Effect of snowmelt on the quality of Filson Creek and Omaday Lake, northeastern Minnesota
Donald I. Siegel, L. E. Anderson, J. A. Rogalla
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-66
Concentrations of major constituents were determined in the surface water, ground water, and precipitation in Filson Creek watershed to evaluate the effects of acid precipitation on surface-water quality during snowmelt. Concentrations of sulfate increased in Filson Creek and Omaday Lake during snowmelt from less than 2 to 12 milligrams per...
