The 1980 Polallie Creek debris flow and subsequent dam-break flood, East Fork Hood River basin, Oregon
Gary L. Gallino, Thomas C. Pierson
1984, Open-File Report 84-578
At approximately 9 p.m. on December 25, 1980, intense rainfall and extremely wet antecedent conditions combined to trigger a landslide of approximately 5,000 cubic yards at the head of Polallie Creek Canyon on the northeast flank of Mount Hood. The landslide was transformed rapidly into a debris flow, which surged...

Common-depth-point seismic-reflection survey on the Mississippi River in the vicinity of Alton, Illinois
G. B. Tirey, R. A. Wise, E. A. Winget
1984, Open-File Report 84-81
A high-resolution seismic-reflection survey was run on the Mississippi River using marine common-depth-point (CDP), digital, and multichannel techniques in an attempt to locate a possible fault that had been interpreted by others from magnetic and land seismic data to be in the vicinity of Lock and Dam No. 26. The...

Water resources of the Yap Islands
Otto Van der Brug
1984, Open-File Report 82-357
The Yap Islands consist of four major islands, Yap, Gagil-Tamil, Maap, and Rumung. Of these, Yap Island has more than half the total land area, most of the population, and almost all of the economic development. The islands of Maap and Rumung together compose only 15 percent of the land...
Techniques for estimating flood hydrographs for ungaged urban watersheds
V.A. Stricker, V.B. Sauer
1984, Open-File Report 82-365
The Clark Method, modified slightly was used to develop a synthetic, dimensionless hydrograph which can be used to estimate flood hydrographs for ungaged urban watersheds. Application of the technique results in a typical (average) flood hydrograph for a given peak discharge. Input necessary to apply the technique is an estimate...
Irrigation data from Chase, Dundy, and Perkins Counties, southwestern Nebraska, 1983

Assessment of water resources in lead-zinc mined areas in Cherokee County, Kansas, and adjacent areas
Timothy B. Spruill
1984, Open-File Report 84-439
A study was conducted to evaluate water-resources problems related to abandoned lead and zinc mines in Cherokee County, Kansas, and adjacent areas in Missouri and Oklahoma. Past mining activities have caused changes in the hydrogeology of the area. Lead and zinc mining has caused discontinuities and perforations in the confining...
State hydrologic unit maps
