Ground-water data collected in the Missouri River basin units in Kansas during 1948
Delmar W. Berry
1950, Open-File Report 50-54
Ground-water studies in the Missouri River Basin were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey during the fall of 1945 as a part of the program for development of the resources of the basin by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and other Federal agencies. The studies of the ground-water resources in...
Ground-water geology of the Gonaives Plain, Haiti
George C. Taylor Jr., Remy C. Lemoine
1950, Report
The Gonaives Plain lies in northern Haiti at the head of the Gulf of Gonaives. Ground water in the plain is used widely for domestic and stock purposes but only to limited extent for irrigation. The future agricultural development of the plain will depend in large measure on...
Pleistocene history of coastal Alabama
C.W. Carlston
1950, Geological Society of America Bulletin (61) 1119-1130
Following its deposition, the late Pliocene or early Pleistocene Citronelle formation was entrenched by consequent streams and then tilted toward the Gulf. Submergence in waters 190 to 210 feet above present sea level then resulted in a compound shore line and marine erosion of the Coharie terrace. Four other marine...
Uranium-bearing sandstone deposits of the Colorado Plateau
Richard Philip Fischer
1950, Economic Geology (45) 1-11
The uranium-bearing sandstone deposits of the Colorado Plateau are commonly referred to as "carnotite deposits." They have been the principal domestic source of uranium, radium, and vanadium. The deposits are largely restricted to a few stratigraphic zones, along which they have a wide but spotty areal distribution. The ore minerals...
An occurrence of saline ground water on Guadalcanal 
R. C. Baker
1950, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (31) 58-60
Guadalcanal Island is largely mountainous, but on the north side there is a coastal plain about 40 mi long which averages eight miles in width and stands a about 15 ft above sea level. This plain is composed of the coalesced deltas of several large rivers. Most of the military...
Geochemistry of ground water
John David Hem
1950, Economic Geology (45) 72-81
The science of geochemistry is the study of the chemical composition of and actual or possible chemical changes in the crust of the earth. The subdivision of geochemistry concerned with ground water includes study of the nature and amounts of dissolved mineral matter in ground waters, the chemical and geologic...
Discussion of “The relation of geology to dry weather stream flow in Ohio”
William Perry Cross
1950, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (31) 473-474
The concepts presented in this paper are of great value to the ground‐water hydrologist. They indicate one way to analyze and conveniently use the vast accumulation of stream‐flow records collected by governmental agencies as a tool for geophysical reconnaisance. To be usable as a method of geophysical prospecting for ground...
Report of the Committee on Runoff, 1949–1950
C. C. McDonald
1950, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (31) 930-934
The Weather Bureau activities in the runoff field during the 1949–1950 year centered largely around its flood and water supply forecasting activities. A new River Forecast Center was inaugurated at Portland, Oregon in January, 1950 to provide service for the Columbia River Basin and adjacent coastal areas. The first custom‐made...
Ground-water problems in the Philadelphia area [Pennsylvania]
Jack B. Graham
1950, Economic Geology (45) 210-221
Large quantities of ground water are used by the Philadelphia Naval Base and many industries in south Philadelphia, as well as by municipalities near Philadelphia in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey.The areal contact between unconsolidated sand, gravel, and clay strata of the Atlantic Coastal Plain and consolidated rocks of the...
Effects of earthquakes, trains tides, winds, and atmospheric pressure changes on water in the geologic formations of southern Florida
Garald G. Parker, Victor Timothy Stringfield
1950, Economic Geology (45) 441-460
Determination of such fundamental hydrologic factors as the coefficients of permeability, transmissibility, and storage; areas of recharge and discharge; direction of ground-water movement; the safe yield; and other pertinent, related factors are based in part upon water-level measurements in wells. But these water-level readings, if not properly understood or weighted,...
Dispersion of copper from the San Manuel copper deposit, Pinal County, Arizona
T. S. Lovering, Lyman C. Huff, H. Almond
1950, Economic Geology (45) 493-514
At San Manuel, near Tucson, Arizona, recent churn drilling has blocked out large reserves of low-grade "porphyry copper" ore. This virgin deposit has a small outcrop and seems ideally suited for a geochemical study of the dispersion pattern produced by weathering in a desert climate. Samples of soils, alluvium, ground...
Preliminary examination of uranium deposits near Marysvale, Piute County, Utah
Harry C. Granger, Herman L. Bauer
1950, Trace Elements Memorandum 33
Autunite and other uranium minerals were discovered in 1948 by Pratt Seegmiller about 3 1/4 miles north of Marysvale, Piute County, Utah. Mining operations were begun in the summer of 1949 by the Vanadium Corporation of America on the Prospector and the Freedom claims, and by the Bullion Monarch Mining...
