Performance assessments for radioactive waste repositories; the rate of movement of faults
Newell J. Trask
1982, Open-File Report 82-972
Performance assessments of mined repositories for radioactive waste require estimates of the likelihood of fault movements and earthquakes that may affect the repository and its surrounding ground water flow system. Some previous assessments have attempted to estimate the rate of formation of new faults; some have relied heavily on historic...

Interpretation of Schlumberger DC resistivity data from Gibson Dome-Lockhart Basin study area, San Juan County, Utah
R.D. Watts
1982, Open-File Report 82-704
A Schlumberger dc resistivity survey of the Gibson Dome-Lockhart Basin area, San Juan County, Utah, has revealed the following electrical characteristics of the area: (1) the area between the northern part of Davis Canyon and Gibson Dome is electrically quite uniform and resistive at the depth of the Pennsylvanian evaporite...
Structure and petroleum potential of the continental margin between Cross Sound and Icy Bay, northern Gulf of Alaska
T.R. Bruns
1982, Open-File Report 82-929
Major structural features of the Yakutat segment, the segment of the continental margin between Cross Sound and Icy Bay, northern Gulf of Alaska, are delineated by multichannel seismic reflection data. A large structural high is centered on Fairweather Ground and lies generally at the edge of the shelf from Cross...

Determination of the true density of pulverized coal samples
R.W. Stanton
1982, Open-File Report 82-835
A method using the gas-comparison pycnometer with helium gas as the penetrating medium measures precisely the true volume of a pulverized coal sample. The true density of a solid is calculated as the true unit volume of the solid exclusive of its pore space which is divided into the weight...
Drainage areas in New Jersey; Delaware River basin and streams tributary to Delaware Bay
A. J. Velnich
1982, Open-File Report 82-572
Drainage areas of New Jersey streams tributary to the Delaware River and Delaware Bay are listed for over 1,100 sites. Tables show the descriptive location of each site, the latitude and longitude, county, and National Topographic map name. For gaged sites established through 1980, the U.S. Geological Survey station name...

High rates of bedload transport measured from infilling rate of large strudelscour craters in the Beaufort Sea, Alaska
Erk Reimnitz, E. W. Kempema
1982, Open-File Report 82-588
Strudel scours are craters as much as 20 m wide and 4 m deep, that are excavated by vertical drainage flow during the yearly spring flooding of vast reaches of fast ice surrounding arctic deltas; they form at a rate of about 2.5 km^-2 yr^-1. Monitoring two such craters in...

Geohydrology of principal aquifers in the Republican River basin, Kansas
L. E. Dunlap
1982, Open-File Report 82-79
Principal aquifers in the Republican River basin in Kansas are unconsolidated alluvial deposits. One such aquifer is formed by the Ogallala Formation of Miocene age which covers most of the western part of the area. Because saturated thickness of the aquifer decrease northeastward, maximum yields to irrigation wells decrease in...
