Water-quality data for selected stations in the East Everglades, Florida
Bradley G. Waller
1981, Open-File Report 81-821
The results of water-quality samples collected from April 1978 through April 1980 from three canal stations, four marsh stations, and two ground-water stations within the East Everglades, Dade County, Florida, are tabulated in 37 tables. The major categories of parameters analyzed are field measurements, physical characteristics, macronutrients (carbon, nitrogen, and...
Reconnaissance of the Hot Springs Mountains and adjacent areas, Churchill County, Nevada
Nickolas E. Voegtly
1981, Open-File Report 81-134
A geologic reconnaissance of the Hot Springs Mountains and adjacent areas, which include parts of the Brady-Hazen and the Stillwater-Soda Lake Known Geothermal Resource Areas, during June-December 1975, resulted in a reinterpretation of the nature and location of some Basin and Range faults. In addition, the late Cenozoic stratigraphy has...
Computer simulation of the steady-state flow system of the Tertiary limestone (Floridan) aquifer system in east-central Florida
C. H. Tibbals
1981, Open-File Report 81-681
The predevelopment steady-state ground-water flow system for 13 ,700 square miles of the Tertiary limestone aquifer system (known as the Florida aquifer in Florida) in east-central Florida is simulated by means of a digital computer model. The model results indicate that about 1,900 cubic feet per second recharges the aquifer...
Evaluation of major dike-impounded ground-water reservoirs, Island of Oahu, with a section on flow hydraulics in dike tunnels in Hawaii
Kiyoshi J. Takasaki, John F. Mink
1981, Open-File Report 81-1119
Ground-water reservoirs impounded by volcanic dikes receive a substantial part of the total recharge to ground water on the island of Oahu because they generally underlie the rainiest areas. They accumulate the infiltration from rainfall, store it temporarily, and steadily leak it to abutting basal reservoirs or to streams cutting...
Eastern Gulf of Alaska seismicity: Annual report to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for April 1, 1980, through March 31, 1981
Christopher D. Stephens, John C. Lahr, John A. Rogers
1981, Open-File Report 81-897
The objective of this research is to collect and analyze data on earthquake activity in the northeast Gulf of Alaska (NEGOA) and adjacent onshore areas in order to develop a better regional seismotectonic model and more accurately assess the earthquake potential. This information is critical to the establishment of criteria...
Quality of surface water in the coal-mining areas of western Maryland and adjacent areas of Pennsylvania and West Virginia from April 1979 to June 1980
W. W. Staubitz
1981, Open-File Report 81-812
The U.S. Geological Survey is studying the water quality of streams within the Eastern Coal Province. This report contains streamflow, water-quality, and biologic data collected in the North Branch Potomac River basin and in the Maryland portion of the Youghiogheny and Casselman River basins. Data collected from 64 streams from...
The Accotink Schist, Lake Barcroft Metasandstone, and Popes Head Formation— Keys to an understanding of the tectonic evolution of the northern Virginia Piedmont
Avery Ala Drake, Peter T. Lyttle
1981, Professional Paper 1205
The newly named Accotink Schist and Lake Barcroft Metasandstone of the Eastern Fairfax sequence are the structurally lowest metamorphic rocks in the northernmost Piedmont of Virginia. The Accotink consists of beds of pelitic schist that have thin basal intervals containing graded, very fine grained metasiltstone, as well as interbeds of...
Apparent water resistivity, porosity, and ground-water temperature of the Madison limestone and underlying rocks in parts of Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming
L.M. MacCary
1981, Open-File Report 81-629
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...
Shallow ground-water conditions and vegetation classification, central Volusia County, Florida
Edward P. Simonds Jr., Benjamin F. McPherson, Peter W. Bush
1981, Open-File Report 80-752
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,...
Hard mineral resources around the U.S continental margin
Frank T. Manheim, H.D. Hess
1981, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the Annual Offshore Technology Conference
The territorial waters surrounding the United States contain vast quantities of hard mineral resources. Some, such as sand and gravel in the New York Bight, Beaufort Sea, portions of southern California, and submerged lands near Hawaii are relatively well known and characterized by local need and immediate mining potential with...
Proterozoic zircon from augen gneiss, Yukon-Tanana Upland, east-central Alaska
John N. Aleinikoff, Cynthia Dusel-Bacon, Helen L. Foster, Kiyoto Futa
1981, Geology (9) 469-473
U-Th-Pb analyses of zircons from an ortho-augen gneiss body in the Yukon-Tanana Upland of east-central Alaska yield strong evidence for the presence of early Proterozoic material in this area. U-Pb data define a chord that intersects concordia at about 2,300 and 345 m.y. We consider two interpretations: (1) the protolith...
Radiometric and paleomagnetic evidence for the Emperor reversed polarity event at 0.46 ± 0.05 M.Y. in basalt lava flows from the eastern Snake River Plain, Idaho
Duane E. Champion, G. Brent Dalrymple, Mel A. Kuntz
1981, Geophysical Research Letters (8) 1055-1058
K-Ar and paleomagnetic data from cores through a sequence of basalt flows in the eastern Snake River Plain provide evidence for a brief (0.005 to 0.01 m.y.) reversal of the geomagnetic field 0.46 ± 0.05 m.y. ago. This reversed polarity event has also been found in sea-floor magnetic anomalies and...
Temporal and spatial variations in suspended matter in continental shelf and slope waters off the north-eastern United States
Michael H. Bothner, Carol M. Parmenter, John D. Milliman
1981, Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science (13) 213-234
Seston in waters of Georges Bank originates primarily from biological production and from resuspension of bottom sediments. The concentrations of suspended matter observed on the central shoals are more influenced by storms than by seasonal changes. Winter storms produce highest concentrations of non-combustible material throughout the water column, and summer...
Geodetic measurement of crustal deformation on the San Andreas, Hayward, and Calaveras faults near San Francisco, California
W.H. Prescott, Michael Lisowski, James C. Savage
1981, Journal of Geophysical Research B: Solid Earth (86) 10853-10869
Analysis of a geodetic network of 115 lines crossing the San Andreas, Hayward, and Calaveras faults in the vicinity of San Francisco Bay and measured repeatedly between 1970 and 1980 has revealed details about the accommodation of relative plate motion in this area. The most striking result is that the...
Crustal processes of the Mid-Ocean Ridge
Richard D. Ballard, H. Craig, J. Edmond, M. Einaudi, R. Holcomb, H.D. Holland, C.A. Hopson, B.P. Luyendyk, K. Macdonald, J. Morton, J. Orcutt, N. Sleep
1981, Science (213) 31-40
Independent geological and geophysical investigations of the Mid-Ocean Ridge system have begun to focus on the nature of the magma chamber system underlying its central axis. Thermal models predict the existence of a steady-state chamber beneath a thin crustal lid ranging in thickness from 2 to 13...
