Water-quality assessment of the Carson River ground-water basin, Nevada and California; project description
A. H. Welch, R. W. Plume
1987, Open-File Report 87-104
In April 1986, the U.S. Geological Survey began a pilot program to assess the quality of the nation 's surface water and groundwater resources. This program, called the National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) program, is designed to acquire and interpret information about a wide range of water quality issues. The program...
Selected water-level data for Mesozoic formations in the upper Colorado River basin in Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming; excluding the San Juan Basin
J. F. Weigel
1987, Open-File Report 87-397
The base of the moderately saline water (water that contains from 3,000 to 10,000 mg/L of dissolved solids) was mapped by using available water quality data and by determining formation-water resistivities from geophysical well logs based on the resistivity-porosity, spontaneous-potential, and resistivity-ratio methods. The contour map developed from these data...

The concentrations of gross alpha radioactivity minus uranium equaled or exceeded 15 picoCuries/L (pCi/L) in five of 14 wells sampled. The concentration of radium-226 plus radium-228 exceeded the primary water quality standard of 5 pCi/L in one well. The concentration of uranium exceeded a recommended limit of 0.035 mg/L in...

Debris flows from tributaries of the Colorado River, Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona; executive summary
R. H. Webb
1987, Open-File Report 87-117
Debris flows are a major process of sediment transport to the Colorado River from ungaged tributaries in Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona. Debris flows are slurries of clay to boulder-sized particles of large magnitude and short duration that occur infrequently. They are the source for potential large volumes of sand...

R. H. Webb, P. T. Pringle, G.R. Rink
1987, Open-File Report 87-118
A reconnaissance of 36 tributaries of the Colorado River indicates that debris flows are a major process by which sediment is transported to the Colorado River in Grand Canyon National Park. Debris flows are slurries of sediment and water that have a water content < 40% by volume. Debris flows...

Telluric-electric and auto-magnetotelluric measurements obtained in and around the Raha fault zone in the Buqaya area indicate that it dips steeply to the southwest. Large contrasts in the electrical properties of Qarnayn and Maraghan metasedimentary rocks located on either side of the fault are characteristic of the rocks within the...
