Preliminary report on deposit models for sand and gravel in the Cache la Poudre River valley
W. H. Langer, D. A. Lindsey
1999, Open-File Report 99-587
The stratigraphy, sedimentary features, and physical characteristics of gravel deposits in the Cache la Poudre River valley were studied to establish geologic models for these deposits. Because most of the gravel mined in the valley is beneath the low terraces and floodplain, the quality of these deposits for aggregate was studied in...

1999, Open-File Report 99-361
McVCO is a microcontroller-based frequency generator that replaces the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) used in the analog telemetry of seismic data. It accepts low-level signals from a seismometer and produces a frequency modulated subcarrier suitable for radio or telephone links to a data collection site. McVCO was designed for the purpose...
Procedures and computer programs for telescopic mesh refinement using MODFLOW
Stanley A. Leake, David V. Claar
1999, Open-File Report 99-238
Ground-water models are commonly used to evaluate flow systems in areas that are small relative to entire aquifer systems. In many of these analyses, simulation of the entire flow system is not desirable or will not allow sufficient detail in the area of interest. The procedure of telescopic mesh refinement allows use of...

Effect of baseline corrections on response spectra for two recordings of the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake
David M. Boore
1999, Open-File Report 99-545
Displacements derived from the accelerogram recordings of the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan earthquake at stations TCU078 and TCU129 show drifts when only a simple baseline derived from the pre-event portion of the record is removed from the records. The appearance of the velocity and displacement records suggests that changes in the...
