Petrology and sedimentology of the Horlick Formation (Lower Devonian), Ohio Range, Transantarctic Mountains
Lucy McCartan, Margaret A. Bradshaw
1987, Bulletin 1780
The Horlick Formation of Early Devonian age is as thick as 50 m and consists of subhorizontal, interbedded subarkosic sandstone and chloritic shale and mudstone. The Horlick overlies an erosion surface cut into Ordovician granitic rocks and is, in turn, overlain by Carboniferous and Permian glacial and periglacial deposits. Textures,...

Preliminary assessment of water quality in the alluvial aquifer of the Puerco River basin, Northeastern Arizona
R. H. Webb, G.R. Rink, D. B. Radtke
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4126
The quality of groundwater in the alluvial aquifer of the Puerco River basin, northeastern Arizona, was evaluated in order to assess potential contamination from uranium mining and milling operations in New Mexico. A total of 14 wells and 1 spring were sampled to determine if a contaminant plume of radionuclides...
Ground-water flow and water quality in northeastern Union County, Ohio
K. S. Wilson
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4083
A study was done by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Village of Richwood, Ohio, to determine directions of ground-water flow, ground-water-level fluctuations, and water quality in the northeastern part of Union County. The topography of the study area generally is featureless, and the land surfaces slopes gently eastward...
Selected hydrologic and physical properties of Mesozoic formations in the Upper Colorado River Basin in Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming: Excluding the San Juan Basin
J. F. Weigel
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4170
Data for hydrologic and physical properties of Mesozoic formations in the Upper Colorado River Basin, excluding the San Juan Basin, have been collected by government agencies, private industry, property owners, and other sources. These data were compiled and analyzed so that they would be available for use by hydrologists, earth...

Techniques for estimating flood-depth frequency relations for streams in West Virginia
J.B. Wiley
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4111
Multiple regression analyses are applied to data from 119 U.S. Geological Survey streamflow stations to develop equations that estimate baseline depth (depth of 50% flow duration) and 100-yr flood depth on unregulated streams in West Virginia. Drainage basin characteristics determined from the 100-yr flood depth analysis were used to develop...

Investigation of techniques to estimate rainfall-loss parameters for Illinois
L.S. Weiss, A. L. Ishii
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4151
An attempt was made by the U.S. Geological Survey to develop parameter-estimation techniques for two rainfall-loss computation methods used in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ' flood-hydrograph model (HEC-1). Six rainfall-loss parameters were investigated - four for the Exponential Loss-Rate method and two for the Initial and Uniform Loss-Rate...
Estimates of streamflow characteristics for selected small streams, Baker River basin, Washington
John R. Williams
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4006
Regression equations were used to estimate streamflow characteristics at eight ungaged sites on small streams in the Baker River basin in the North Cascade Mountains, Washington, that could be suitable for run-of-the-river hydropower development. The regression equations were obtained by relating known streamflow characteristics at 25 gaging stations in nearby...

1987, Open-File Report 87-574
The U.S. Geological Survey 's water resources programs are supported by direct annual appropriations from Congress, the Federal-State Cooperative Program (50:50 matching of funds), and by funds provided by other Federal agencies. For fiscal year 1987, total obligations exceeded $250 million for activities in every State, Puerto Rico, and several...
