Selected hydrogeologic data from the Northern Great Plains area of Montana
Gary W. Levings
1981, Open-File Report 81-534
Selected hydrologic data have been used in a 4-year study of aquifers of Cenozoic and Mesozoic age in the northern Great Plains to define the hydrologic system and to generate hydrologic maps. Records of 6,754 wells and 188 springs are tabulated in the report. The well data include site location,...
Selected drill-stem-test data from the Northern Great Plains area of Montana
Gary W. Levings
1981, Open-File Report 81-326
Selected drill-stem-test data were collected for use in the hydrologic analysis of aquifers in the northern Great Plains area of Montana. To supplement existing data defining the potentiometric surface of various aquifers, shut-in pressures recorded during drill-stem tests of oil and gas test wells were used to calculate the altitude...
Petrogenetic modeling of a potential uranium source rock, Granite Mountains, Wyoming
J. S. Stuckless, A.T. Miesch
1981, Professional Paper 1225
Previous studies of the granite of Lankin Dome have led to the conclusion that this granite was a source for the sandstone-type uranium deposits in the basins that surround the Granite Mountains, Wyo. Q-mode factor analysis of 29 samples of this granite shows that five bulk compositions are required to...

Evapotranspiration from rapidly growing young saltcedar in the Gila River Valley of Arizona
O.E. Leppanen
1981, Open-File Report 81-485
Estimates of evapotranspiration by young saltcedar, based on energy budget measurements, were made for an unfilled portion of the San Carlos Reservoir in east-central Arizona. Foty-eight days of record were obtained before the site was inundated. The young saltcedar, which had grown from seed earlier in the season , had...

Magnitude and chemical quality of base flow of Otter Creek, Tongue River, and Rosebud Creek, southeastern Montana, October 26-November 5, 1977
Roger W. Lee, Steven E. Slagle, James R. Stimson
1981, Open-File Report 80-1298
Hydrologic and chemical data were collected during base-flow conditions on three streams in southeastern Montana from October 26 to November 5, 1977, to characterize groundwater discharge. Maximum measured flow of Otter Creek, an interrupted stream, was 1.2 cubic feet per second. The water chemistry was dominated by sodium, magnesium, and...

The Nature and Use of Copper Reserve and Resource Data
Dennis P. Cox, Nancy A. Wright, George J. Coakley
1981, Professional Paper 907-F
Copper reserve, resource, and production data can be combined to produce disaggregated resource estimates and trends and, when combined with demand forecasts, can be used to predict future exploration and development requirements. Reserve estimates are subject to uncertainties due mainly to incomplete exploration and rapidly changing economic conditions. United States' reserve...

Generalized altitude and configuration of the base of the High Plains regional aquifer, northwestern Oklahoma
John S. Havens
1981, Open-File Report 81-1117
During 1978, the U.S. Geological Survey began a 5-year study of the High Plains regional aquifer system to provide hydrologic information for evaluation of the effects of long-term development of the aquifer and to develop computer models for prediction of aquifer response to alternative changes in ground-water management (Weeks, 1978)....

This report summarizes the distribution of phytoplankton biomass and selected hydrographic properties measured in the San Francisco Bay Estuary, on a near-monthly basis, from July 1977 through December 1979. Parameters measured were: chlorophyll a, phaeopigments, in-vivo fluorescence, turbidity, size distribution of phytoplankton, salinity and temperature. (USGS)...
