The concept of electron activity and its relation to redox potentials in aqueous geochemical systems
D.C. Thorstenson
1984, Open-File Report 84-72
The definition of a formal thermodynamic activity of electrons in redox reactions appears in the literature of the 1920's. The concept of pe as -log (electron activity) was introduced by Jorgensen in 1945 and popularized in the geochemical literature by Sillen, who considered pe and pH as master variables in...
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...
Sediment characteristics of Tennessee streams and reservoirs
Stanley W. Trimble, William P. Carey
1984, Open-File Report 84-749
Measured suspended-sediment data and reservoir sedimentation data have been analyzed to determine sediment yields and transport characteristics of Tennessee streams. Measured suspended-sediment is mostly silt and clay size material even in the sand-bed channels of western Tennessee. Unmeasured load accounts for less than 10 percent of the total sediment load...

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...
Drainage areas in New Jersey; Atlantic coastal basins, South Amboy to Cape May
A. J. Velnich
1984, Open-File Report 84-150
Drainage areas of New Jersey streams in the coastal basin from South Amboy to Cape May are listed for more than 700 sites. Tables list the descriptive location of each site, the latitude and longitude, county, and National Topographic map name. For gaged sites established through 1982, the U.S. Geological...

1984, Open-File Report 84-868
This report documents the results of a study of the data uses and funding of the stream-gaging program in Missouri. Presently (1984), 100 continuous-record streamflow-gaging stations are operated in Missouri on a budget of $633,345. Data uses and funding sources are identified for each of the stations. Data from most...
