Application of seismic-refraction techniques to hydrologic studies
F.P. Haeni
1988, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 02-D2
During the past 30 years, seismic-refraction methods have been used extensively in petroleum, mineral, and engineering investigations and to some extent for hydrologic applications. Recent advances in equipment, sound sources, and computer interpretation techniques make seismic refraction a highly effective and economical means of obtaining subsurface data in hydrologic...
Map and tabulation of quaternary mass movements along the United States-Canadian Atlantic continental slope from 32 degrees 00 minutes to 47 degrees 00 minutes N. latitude

1988, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 2027
Since the initial report on the Grand Banks Slump off southern Newfoundland (Heezen and Ewing, 1952), a large body of data on submarine mass movement along the Atlantic continental margin of the United States and Canada has been published. These data were compiled to provide this distribution map (sheet 1)...
Geohydrology of the Navajo sandstone in western Kane, southwestern Garfield, and southeastern Iron counties, Utah
G. W. Freethey
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4040
The upper Navajo and Lamb Point aquifers in the Navajo Sandstone are the principal source of water for the city of Kanab, irrigation, stock, and for rural homes in the study area. Well logs and outcrop descriptions indicate the Navajo Sandstone consists of the Lamb Point Tongue and an unnamed...
Hydrology and water quality of Delavan Lake in southeastern Wisconsin
S. J. Field, M.D. Duerk
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4168
Delavan Lake is a eutrophic, recreational lake in a densely populated area of southeastern Wisconsin. Sewage effluent and septic tank drainage were diverted out of the drainage basin of the lake to improve its water quality in 1981. The worst known blue-green algal bloom occurred in the lake in the...

Surface-water hydrology of Hay Creek watershed, Montana, and West Branch Antelope Creek watershed, North Dakota
Douglas G. Emerson
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4038
Hydrologric data were used to determine the premining surface-water conditions in two small basins in the Fort Union coal region of Montana and North Dakota. The two streams. Hay Creek and West Branch Antelope Creek, are ephemeral. Most of the volume and peak discharges are due to snowmelt runoff. Little...

Preimpoundment hydrologic conditions in the Swatara Creek (1981-84) and estimated postimpoundment water quality in and downstream from the planned Swatara State Park Reservoir, Lebanon and Schuylkill counties, Pennsylvania
D. K. Fishel
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4087
The hydrology and water quality of Swatara Creek were studied by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources, Bureau of State Parks, from July 1981 through September 1984. The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of anthracite-coal mining and other point...
Mineral resources and resource potential map of the Pyramid Peak Roadless Area, Riverside County, California
J.P. Calzia
1988, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1999
The Pyramid Peak Roadless Area is underlain by mid-Cretaceous plutonic rocks (granite, granodiorite, and tonalite) that intrude metasedimentary rocks of the Desert Divide Group. The granodiorite grades eastward into strongly deformed mylonitic rocks mapped as part of the Santa Rosa mylonite zone. Metasedimentary rocks, orthogneiss, and anatexites of the Palm...
Discharge ratings for control structures at McHenry Dam on the Fox River, Illinois
G. G. Fisk
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4226
Twenty-three measurement of discharge were used to determine discharge ratings for the five adjustable sluice gates, spillway and fish ladder at McHenry Dam on the Fox River in Illinois. Discharge ratings were determined for free weir, free orifice, and submerged orifice flow regimes. Hydraulic conditions that identify flow regimes at...
Hydrogeology, aquifer characteristics, and ground-water flow of the surficial aquifer system, Broward County, Florida
J.E. Fish
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4034
The surficial aquifer system, in which an unconfined groundwater flow system exists, comprises the sediments from land surface to the intermediate confining unit (formerly called the Floridan aquiclude) in Broward County, Florida. These sediments have hydraulic conductivities that range more than seven orders of magnitude from about 0.001 ft/d to...
Hydrogeology and flow of water in a sand and gravel aquifer contaminated by wood-preserving compounds, Pensacola, Florida
B.J. Franks
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4260
The sand and gravel aquifer in southern Escambia County, Florida , is a typical surficial aquifer composed of quartz sands and gravels interbedded locally with silts and clays. Problems of groundwater contamination from leaking surface impoundments are common in surficial aquifers and are a subject of increasing concern and attention....
Effects of fluctuating river-pool stages on ground-water levels in the adjacent alluvial aquifer in the lower Arkansas River, Arkansas
D.A. Freiwald, G.D. Grosz
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4279
The U.S. Geological Survey conducted a study in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to determine the effect of fluctuating the lower Arkansas River. A network of 41 wells was used to delineate 4 cross sections adjacent to river pools 2 and 5 of the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River...
