Antipodal hotspots and bipolar catastrophes: Were oceanic large-body impacts the cause?
Jonathan T. Hagstrum
2005, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (236) 13-27
One aspect of the hotspot distribution that has received little attention is its antipodal character. Of 45 ‘primary’ hotspots found in most hotspot compilations 22 (49%) form antipodal pairs within observed hotspot drift limits (≤ 20 mm/yr). In addition, the available ages, or possible age ranges, for both hotspots of an...
Rainfall, Streamflow, and Water-Quality Data During Stormwater Monitoring, Halawa Stream Drainage Basin, Oahu, Hawaii, July 1, 2004 to June 30, 2005
Stacie T. M. Young, Marcael T.J. Ball
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1280
Storm runoff water-quality samples were collected as part of the State of Hawaii Department of Transportation Stormwater Monitoring Program. This program is designed to assess the effects of highway runoff and urban runoff on Halawa Stream. For this program, rainfall data were collected at two stations, continuous streamflow data at...
Simulation of hydraulic characteristics in the white sturgeon spawning habitat of the Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, Idaho
Charles Berenbrock
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5110
Hydraulic characterization of the Kootenai River, especially in the white sturgeon spawning habitat reach, is needed by the Kootenai River White Sturgeon Recovery Team to promote hydraulic conditions that improve spawning conditions for the white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) in the Kootenai River. The decreasing population and spawning failure of white...
Characterization and modes of occurrence of elements in feed coal and coal combustion products from a power plant utilizing low-sulfur coal from the Powder River Basin, Wyoming
Michael E. Brownfield, James D. Cathcart, Ronald H. Affolter, Isabelle K. Brownfield, Cynthia A. Rice, Joseph T. O’Connor, Robert A. Zielinski, John H. Bullock Jr., James C. Hower, Gregory P. Meeker
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2004-5271
The U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research are collaborating with an Indiana utility company to determine the physical and chemical properties of feed coal and coal combustion products from a coal-fired power plant. The Indiana power plant utilizes a low-sulfur (0.23 to 0.47...
Estimated withdrawals from principal aquifers in the United States, 2000
Molly A. Maupin, Nancy L. Barber
2005, Circular 1279
Fresh ground-water withdrawals from 66 principal aquifers in the United States were estimated for irrigation, public-supply, and self-supplied industrial water uses for the year 2000. Total ground-water withdrawals were 76,500 million gallons per day, or 85,800 thousand acre-feet per year for these three uses. Irrigation used the largest amount of...
Proceedings of the U.S. Geological Survey Fourth Biennial Geographic Information Science Workshop: Denver, Colorado, April 23-27, 2001
Jennifer B. Sieverling, Stephen J. Char, Carma A. San Juan
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5117
Introduction: The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Fourth Biennial Geographic Information Science (GIS) Workshop (USGS-GIS 2001) was held April 23-27, 2001, at the Denver Federal Center in Denver, Colorado. The workshop provided an environment for participants to improve their knowledge about GIS and GIS-related applications that are used within the...
Mercury recycling in the United States in 2000
William E. Brooks, Grecia R. Matos
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1236
Reclamation and recycling of mercury from used mercury- containing products and treatment of byproduct mercury from gold mining is vital to the continued, though declining, use of this metal. Mercury is reclaimed from mercury-containing waste by treatment in multistep high-temperature retorts-the mercury is volatized and then condensed for purification and...
Coastal change rates and patterns: Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park, Hawai'i
Cheryl J. Hapke, Rick Gmirkin, Bruce M. Richmond
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1069
A collaborative project between the U.S. Geological Survey's Coastal and Marine Geology Program and the National Park Service (NPS) has been developed to create an inventory of geologic resources for National Park Service lands on the Big Island of Hawai'i. The NPS Geologic Resources Inventories are recognized as essential for...
Porphyry copper deposits of the world: database, map, and grade and tonnage models
Donald A. Singer, Vladimir Iosifovich Berger, Barry C. Moring
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1060
Mineral deposit models are important in exploration planning and quantitative resource assessments for two reasons: (1) grades and tonnages among deposit types are significantly different, and (2) many types occur in different geologic settings that can be identified from geologic maps. Mineral deposit models are the keystone in combining the...
USGS launches online database: Lichens in National Parks
Jim Bennett
2005, Fact Sheet 2005-3040
If you are interested in lichens and National Parks, now you can query a lichen database that combines these two elements. Using pull-down menus you can: search by park, specifying either species list or the references used for that area; search by species (a report will show the parks in...
Status of and changes in water quality monitored for the Idaho statewide surface-water-quality network, 1989—2002
Mark A. Hardy, Deborah J. Parliman, Ivalou O’Dell
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5033
The Idaho statewide surface-water-quality monitoring network consists of 56 sites that have been monitored from 1989 through 2002 to provide data to document status and changes in the quality of Idaho streams. Sampling at 33 sites has covered a wide range of flows and seasons that describe water-quality variations representing...
Introduction to suspended-sediment sampling
K. Michael Nolan, John R. Gray, G. Douglas Glysson
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5077
Knowledge of the amount and timing of sediment transport in streams is important to those directly or indirectly responsible for developing and managing water and land resources. Such data are often used to judge the health of watershed and the success or failure of activities designed to mitigate adverse impacts...
