Schlumberger sounding results near Twin Falls, Idaho, 1987
R.J. Bisdorf
1987, Open-File Report 87-166
The U.S. Geological Survey has made 85 Schlumberger soundings near Twin Falls, Idaho since 1982. These soundings were made in support of the Water Resources Division Regional Aquifer-Systems Analysis study.  The soundings were made to estimate the thickness of the basalt, which is the main aquifer in this area....
Chemical characteristics of water in the surficial aquifer system, Dade County, Florida
W. H. Sonntag
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4080
Geohydrologic test drilling was conducted throughout Dade County to describe the chemical characteristics of water from geohydrologic units in the surficial aquifer system. Water quality analysis of samples collected from the test wells completed in central Dade County indicates that the Biscayne aquifer (unit A), the upper clastic unit of...
Conference on Continental margin mass wasting and Pleistocene sea-level changes, August 13-15, 1980
David W. Folger, John C. Hathaway, editor(s)
1987, Circular 961
A conference on Continental Margin Mass Wasting and Pleistocene Sea-Level Changes was held in Woods Hole, Mass., August 13-15, 1980. Forty-seven participants, representing many government, academic, and industrial organizations, discussed the current state of knowledge of the features of marine mass wasting and of the interrelations of factors influencing them....
The principle of superposition and its application in ground-water hydraulics
Thomas E. Reilly, O. Lehn Franke, Gordon D. Bennett
1987, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-B6
The principle of superposition, a powerful mathematical technique for analyzing certain types of complex problems in many areas of science and technology, has important applications in ground-water hydraulics and modeling of ground-water systems. The principle of superposition states that problem solutions can be added together to obtain composite solutions. This...
Roughness coefficients for densely vegetated flood plains
G.J. Arcement, V.R. Schneider
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4247
Although much research has been done on Manning 's roughness coefficients for stream channels, very little has been done on the selection of roughness values for densely vegetated flood plains. In this report four method for determining roughness coefficients for flood plains are examined and evaluated. Field data were collected...
Traveltime and dispersion in the New River, Hinton to Gauley Bridge, West Virginia
David H. Appel, S. B. Moles
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4012
Traveltime and dispersion studies were conducted on a 65-mile-long reach of the New River between Hinton and Gauley Bridge, West Virginia. Four sets of measurements were made from August 1985 to May 1986 at river discharges of about 2,220, 3 ,200, 9,200, and 18,000 cu ft/sec, which correspond to flow...
Uranium resource assessment by the Geological Survey; methodology and plan to update the national resource base
Warren Irvin Finch, Richard B. McCammon
1987, Circular 994
Based on the Memorandum of Understanding {MOU) of September 20, 1984, between the U.S. Geological Survey of the U.S. Department of Interior and the Energy Information Administration {EIA) of the U.S. Department of Energy {DOE), the U.S. Geological Survey began to make estimates of the undiscovered uranium endowment of selected...
Chemical quality of precipitation at Greenville, Maine
J.A. Smath, T.L. Potter
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4037
Weekly composite precipitation samples were collected at a rural site located in Greenville, Maine for analysis of trace metals and organic compounds. Samples collected during February 1982, through May 1984, were analyzed for cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, and zinc and during February 1982, through March 1983, for chlorinated...
Streamflow characteristics at hydrologic bench-mark stations
C.L. Lawrence
1987, Circular 941
The Hydrologic Bench-Mark Network was established in the 1960's. Its objectives were to document the hydrologic characteristics of representative undeveloped watersheds nationwide and to provide a comparative base for studying the effects of man on the hydrologic environment. The network, which consists of 57 streamflow gaging stations and one lake-stage...
Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston metropolitan area, Texas, 1984
Fred Liscum, J.P. Bruchmiller, D. W. Brown, E.M. Paul
1987, Open-File Report 86-608
Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. Studies are now in progress in the Austin and Houston areas, and have been completed in the Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio areas. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Houston, began...
COGEOMAP; a new era in cooperative geologic mapping
Juergen Reinhardt, David M. Miller
1987, Circular 1003
A program of cooperative geologic mapping was established between the U.S. Geological Survey and the State geological surveys in fiscal year 1985. The main purpose of the program is to increase general-purpose geologic mapping throughout the Nation. By combining State and Federal resources for geologic mapping through this cooperative program,...
