1981, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1342-B
The Centennial Mountains include parts of Beaverhead County, Montana, and Clark and Fremont Counties, Idaho; the mountains trend east, and the Continental Divide follows their crest (fig. 1). They form a massive, almost impassable barrier between Centennial Valley on the north and the broad expanse of the Snake River Plain...

A map (scale 1:125,000) shows ground-water subunits and areas and graphs of dissolved-solids concentrations, 1970-80, in the Antelope Valley-East Kern Water Agency area, California. (USGS)...

The southernmost 15 km of this map is a product of a study that began in 1975 as part of a study of recency of faulting in coastal California (Ziony and others, 1974; Buchanan-Banks and others, 1978; Pampeyan , 1979). In February 1975, after being shown evidence of recent faulting...

The Shawsheen River basin drains a 77-square-mile area northwest of metropolitan Boston in eastern Massachusetts and discharges into the Merrimack River. Principal tributaries to the Shawsheen River are: Content, Elm, Heath, Hussey, Kiln, Rogers, Spring, Strong Water, Vine, and Webb Brooks....

During the six weeks following the October 15, 1979 earthquake, parts of the Imperial Valley Mekometer network (Fig. 1) around the Imperial fault to the east of El Centro were re-measured, some repeatedly, in an attempt to assess the coseismic and postearthquake slip on the fault, and horizontal strain adjustment...

Time of travel was determined for four reaches of the Sebasticook River, two on the East Branch Sebasticook River, and two on the main stem of the Sebasticook River. Reach A included 7.8 miles of the East Branch Sebasticook River from Dexter to Corinna, Maine. Reach B included 8 miles...

Relations for estimating the flood magnitudes for ungaged sites in Montana have been updated. The State was divided into eight regions and separate multiple-regression equations for each region were developed that relate logarithms of annual flood magnitude to logarithms of basin characteristics for exceedance probabilities of 50, 20, 10, 4,...

Flow-routing models for six reaches of major streams in the eastern Susquehanna River basin in New York were developed and used to trace releases of water from East Sidney Lake and Whitney Point Lake to gaged points downstream. Daily streamflow during 1942-77 was modeled for the following reaches: Susquehanna River--Unadilla...

The need for large quantities of energy has created interest in the Fort Union coal region of the Northern Great Plains. Extensive development of this coal, which may include onsite steam-power generation, gasification, liquefaction, and slurry-pipeline transport of the coal from this region, would place a heavy demand on the...

Eight partial sections of the Browns Park Formation of Miocene age were measured in Moffat County, northwestern Colorado, during the 1980 field season, as part of a study of the stratigraphy and depositional environments of the formation. These newly measured sections are intended to complement other surface sections of the...

The interaction of sea ice with the sea floor is an important factor affecting geologic processes on high latitude shelves. One of the most obvious forms of this interaction is the formation of furrow-like gouges or the sea floor. These gouges are caused by wind- and current-driven ice masses that...

The Platte River in south-central Nebraska flows generally eastward in a broad, flat valley. The river banks and many areas adjacent to the river support thick stands of cottonwood and willow trees. Brush, grass, pasture land, and cultivated fields occupy most of the remaining area. This is the habitat for...

A study of the clay mineralogy of the Devonian black shales of the Appalachian basin was undertaken to help predict areas for potential gas resources. More than 2,100 samples from 84 drill holes representing 11 shale units were analyzed for clay mineralogy or whole—rock mineralogy or both. Approximately 1,300 samples...

Ground-water conditions during coal strip mining in two small watersheds are described as part of an ongoing study of effects of mining on hydrologic systems. Both watersheds were underlain by stratified sedimentary rocks containing two perched aquifers above clay beds which underlaid the major coal seams. Mining involved removing the...

In the early 1970's, the Volusia County Council recognized the need to develop new sources of freshwater for future growth and development. County Council, using data from the U.S. Geological Survey and private consultants, concluded that the central wetlands were an optimal area for well-field development. With this in mind,...

Ground-water consumption for industrial use at Nikiski increased from about 1 million gallons per day in 1968 to 4.2 million gallons per day in 1979. Water managers and local citizens are concerned that industrial pumping may reduce the esthetic and recreational value of local lakes. Some lake levels have declined...

Daily water use in the Withlacoochee River region in 1977 averaged about 2,005 million gallons per day, 94 percent of which was saline surface water used in thermoelectric power-generation cooling. Industrial and irrigation uses required 73 percent of the freshwater. The largest user of freshwater was Hernando County, using 43.0...

The need for large quantities of energy has increased interest in the Fort Union coal region of the Northern Great Plains. Extensive coal development would place a heavy demand on the region's limited streamflow. Some Paleozoic rocks that underlie the Fort Union coal region might supply, at least on a...

As part of the National Geophysical and Solar-Terrestrial Data Center's (NGSDC's) project to maintain a computer-accessed list of marine geological samples, the U.S. Geological Survey has inventoried 3,949 samples from the continental margin of the Eastern United States (Fig. 1). Most (3,868) of these samples are grab and dredge samples...

The Vamoosa-Ada aquifer, which underlies an area of about 2,320 square miles, consists principally of the Vamoosa Formation and the overlying Ada Group of Pennsylvanian age. Rocks comprising the aquifer were deposited in a near-shore environment ranging from marine on the west to nonmarine to the east. Because of changes...

The lower Merrimack River basin study area drains approximately 180 square miles along the New Hampshire border in northeastern Massachusetts. This area includes parts of the Merrimack River basin within Massachusetts east of the Beaver Brook and Concord River basins, except for the Shawsheen River basin. Even though the Blackwater...
