A technique for estimating the time of travel of water in Indiana streams
Stephen E. Eikenberry, Leroy G. Davis
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-9
Estimates of the traveltime of waterborne particles in streams is important for pollution studies and in the event of spills of contaminants. This report provides data for the 16 Indiana streams on which time-of-travel information has been obtained and a means for estimating the velocity of any naturally flowing stream...
Geologic appraisal of the petroleum potential of offshore southern California; the borderland compared to onshore coastal basins
James Carlton Taylor
1976, Circular 730
Offshore southern California is part of a much larger Pacific continental margin, and the two areas have a similar geologic history at least as far back as middle Tertiary time. Assessment of the petroleum potential of the offshore Southern California borderland is accomplished by examining the adjacent highly explored productive...
Simulation procedure for modeling transient water table and artesian stress and response
J.E. Reed, M. S. Bedinger, J. E. Terry
1976, Open-File Report 76-792
The series of computer programs described in this report were designed specifically to model the ground-water regime in sufficient detail to determine the effects of the imposition of various types of stress upon the system, and to display the results in a convenient manner during calibration and when presenting projected...
Ground-water resources of the Holloman Air Force Base well field area, 1967, New Mexico
W. C. Ballance, Robert E. Mattick
1976, Open-File Report 76-807
Water consumption at Holloman Air Force Base (HAFB), N. Mex., reached an all time high in 1964 and 1965. Further increases in withdrawal without expansion of pumping facilities will hasten the chemical deterioration of the ground water pumped from the well fields. Saline water in the well-field area is present...
Deep Ocean Mining Environmental Study, Northeast Pacific nodule province; geology and geochemistry of Site C
James L. Bischoff
1976, Open-File Report 76-548
Probably the single most obvious and important environmental effect during deep-sea mining operations will be the resuspension and discharge of large amounts of sea floor sediment into the water column.  The objectives of the geological program, therefore, were two-fold.  The first was to provide baseline information on the sediment system...
Techniques for estimating flow characteristics of Wyoming streams
H. W. Lowham
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-112
This report presents relations for estimating peak flows and mean annual flow characteristics are: (1) The Channel-geometry method, whereby flow characteristics are related to channel dimensions; and (2) the basin-characteristics method, whereby flow characteristics are related to physiographic and climatic features of the drainage basin. Development of the channel-geometry method...
Hydrologic interpretation of geophysical data from the southeastern Hueco Bolson, El Paso, and Hudspeth Counties, Texas
Joseph Spencer Gates, W. D. Stanley
1976, Open-File Report 76-650
Airborne-electromagnetic and earth-resistivity surveys were used to explore for fresh ground water in the Hueco Bolson southeast of El Paso, Texas. Aerial surveys were made along about 500 miles (800 km) of flight line, and 67 resistivity soundings were made along 110 miles (180 km) of profile. The surveys did...
Ground-water quality in the Davie Landfill, Broward County, Florida
H. C. Mattraw Jr.
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-56
Ground-water adjacent to a disposal pond for septic tank sludge, oil, and grease at the Davie landfill, Broward County, Florida was tested for a variety of ground-water contaminants. Three wells adjacent to the disposal pond yielded water rich in nutrients, organic carbon and many other chemical constituents. Total coliform bacteria...
Ground water favorability and surficial geology of the Portland area, Maine
Glenn C. Prescott
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 561
This hydrologic atlas describes the surficial geology and groundwater resources of about 240 square miles in Cumberland County, Maine. The most productive aquifers are outwash and ice-contact deposits. Their locations and the most favorable areas for obtaining large yields from them are indicated on the map. The largest reported yield...
Hydrologic reconnaissance of the geothermal area near Klamath Falls, Oregon
E.A. Sammel, D. L. Peterson
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-127
Geothermal phenomena observed in the vicinity of Klamath Falls include hot springs with temperatures that approach 204°F (96 o C) (the approximate boiling temperature for the altitude), steam and water wells with temperatures that exceed 212°F (100°C), and hundreds of warm-water wells with temperatures mostly ranging from 68° to 95°F...
Map showing configuration and thickness, and potentiometric surface and water quality in the Madison Group, Powder River basin, Wyoming and Montana
F. A. Swenson, W. R. Miller, W.G. Hodson, F. N. Visher
1976, IMAP 847-C
With development of the coal resources of the Powder River Basin of Wyoming and Montana the demand for water will increase greatly. The study upon which this report is based was designed to make a preliminary evaluation of the available geo-hydrologic data for the Madison Group, which is an extensive...
Water availability, quality, and use in Alaska
G. O. Balding
1976, Open-File Report 76-513
The Alaska Water Assessment, sponsored by the Water Resources Council, is a specific problem analysis for Alaska of the National Assessment of Water and Related Land Resources. The assessment addresses water and water-related land problems, present and future. It was felt that a supplementary report, as a part of the...
