Resource assessment of the Bureau of Land Management's Winnemucca District and Surprise Resource Area, Northwest Nevada and Northeast California; geology and its relation to resource genesis
J. L. Doebrich
1996, Open-File Report 96-30
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is a party to joint interagency Memorandum of Understandings (MOUs) with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the U.S. Bureau of Mines (USBM) to coordinate resource assessments and evaluations of BLM administered lands. Resource assessments of BLM Resource Areas, that are conducted by the...
Direct temperature measurements of deposits, Mount St. Helens, Washington, 1980-1981
Norman G. Banks, Richard P. Hoblitt
1996, Professional Paper 1387
A program of temperature studies of the eruptive products of Mount St. Helens was established May 20, 1980, 2 days after the catastrophic eruption of May 18. Temperature-depth profiles were measured by thermocouple to determine the emplacement temperatures of deposits of the debris avalanche and blast of May 18 and...
Hydrogeologic framework of the North Carolina coastal plain
M. D. Winner Jr., R. W. Coble
1996, Professional Paper 1404-I
The hydrogeologic framework of the North Carolina Coastal Plain aquifer system consists of 10 aquifers separated by 9 confining units. From top to bottom, the aquifers are the surficial aquifer, Yorktown aquifer, Pungo River aquifer, Castle Hayne aquifer, Beaufort aquifer, Peedee aquifer, Black Creek aquifer, upper Cape Fear aquifer, lower...
Field test of two single-frequency GPS receivers
E.Y. Iwatsubo
1996, Open-File Report 96-43
The U.S. Geological Survey's Cascades Volcano Observatory (CVO) has been testing low-cost, low-power Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers for use in the monitoring of restless volcanoes. Field tests of two single-frequency (L1 only) receivers, the Ashtech SCA-12S and the Leica SR261 show that these units can measure positions precisely enough...
Dissolved oxygen in the Tualatin River, Oregon, during winter flow conditions, 1991 and 1992
V.J. Kelly
1996, Open-File Report 95-451
Throughout the winter period, November through April, wastewater treatment plants in the Tualatin River Basin discharge from 10,000 to 15,000 pounds per day of biochemical oxygen demand to the river. These loads often increase substantially during storms when streamflow is high. During the early winter season, when streamflow is frequently...
Kangaroo rat bone compared to white rat bone after short-term disuse and exercise
E. Muths, O. J. Reichman
1996, Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, Part A: Physiology (114) 355-361
Kangaroo rats (Dipodomys ordii) were used to study the effects of confinement on mechanical properties of bone with a long range objective of proposing an alternative to the white rat model for the study of disuse osteoporosis. Kangaroo rats exhibit bipedal locomotion, which subjects their limbs to substantial accelerative forces...
Variations in land use and nonpoint-source contamination on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, west-central North Dakota, 1990-93
Kathleen Macek-Rowland, Robert M. Lent
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4007
The effects of land-use activities on the water quality of five streams on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation were evaluated. The five basinsevaluated were East Fork Shell Creek, Deepwater Creek, Bear Den Creek, Moccasin Creek, and Squaw Creek. East Fork Shell Creek and DeepwaterCreek Basins are located east of Lake...
A nitrogen-rich septage-effluent plume in a coastal aquifer, marsh, and creek system, Orleans, Massachusetts; project summary, 1988-95
P.K. Weiskel, L.A. DeSimone, B.L. Howes
1996, Open-File Report 96-111
A report summarizing the major findings of an ongoing study of a nitrogen-rich septage-effluent plume in Orleans, Massachusetts has been published. The study is being conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, Office of Watershed Management, with additional support from the Cape Cod Commission....
South Florida wetlands ecosystem; biogeochemical processes in peat
William Orem, Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1996, Fact Sheet 177-96
The South Florida wetlands ecosystem is an environment of great size and ecological diversity (figs. 1 and 2). The landscape diversity and subtropical setting of this ecosystem provide a habitat for an abundance of plants and wildlife, some of which are unique to South Florida. South Florida wetlands are currently...
Streamflow transport of radio-nuclides and other chemical constituents in the Puerco and the Little Colorado River Basins, Arizona and New Mexico
Julia B. Graf, Laurie Wirt, E. K. Swanson, G. G. Fisk, J. R. Gray
1996, Water Supply Paper 2459
Samples collected at streamflow-gaging stations in the Puerco and Little Colorado rivers show that radioactivity of suspended sediment at gaging stations downstream from inactive uranium mines was not significantly higher than at gaging stations where no mining has occurred upstream. Drinking-water standards for many constituents, however, commonly are exceeded during...
Stormwater-runoff data, Madison, Wisconsin, 1993-94
R.J. Waschbusch
1996, Open-File Report 95-733
Section 402(P) of the Water Quality Control Act of 1987 requires that municipalities with a population of 100,000 or more obtain permits to discharge stormwater runoff and to control its quality. Monitoring and sampling of stormwater runoff from seven drainage basins in Madison, Wis., was performed from April 1993 through...
Evaluation of the Surface-Water Quantity, Surface-Water Quality, and Rainfall Data-Collection Programs in Hawaii, 1994
Richard A. Fontaine
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 95-4212
This report documents the results of an evaluation of the surface-water quantity, surface-water quality, and rainfall data-collection programs in Hawaii. Fourteen specific issues and related goals were identified for the surface-water quantity program and a geographic information systems (GIS) data base was developed summarizing information for all surface-water stream gages...
