Side-scan sonograph data from eastern Rhode Island Sound and Vineyard Sound, Massachusetts
Charles J. O’Hara
1980, Open-File Report 80-283
Two hundred twenty-four kilometers of closely spaced side-scan sonograph data have been collected from eastern Rhode Island Sound and Vineyard Sound, Mass., by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the New England Division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. These data were obtained during the August 1976 cruise...

Freshwater resources of Big Pine Key, Florida
Chris E. Hanson
1980, Open-File Report 80-447
The principal freshwater-bearing unit underlying Big Pine Key is a layer of oolitic limestone averaging 19 feet in thickness. The freshwater exists in two separate lenses, one in the northern half of the island and one in the southern half. The slightly larger north lens is separated from the south...

Selected hydrologic data from the vicinity of Rayburns and Vacherie salt domes, northern Louisiana salt-dome basin
G.N. Ryals, R.L. Hosman
1980, Open-File Report 80-217
The U.S. Department of Energy is considering salt domes in northern Louisiana as possible sites for storage of nuclear waste from commercial sources. As part of this National Waste Terminal Storage (NWTS) Program, the U.S. Geological Survey is conducting a regional study of the geohydrology of the northern Louisiana salt-dome...

An experiment to test hole-to-hole resistivity measurements for locating mine openings in coal seams
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James Henry Scott
1980, Open-File Report 80-895
Hole-to-hole resistivity measurements can be useful for interpreting resistivity anomalies that are located too far away from the borehole to be detected with conventional well logging probes. Hole-to-hole direct current resistivity measurements are shown in this study to be useful for detecting mine openings in a coal seam....
Ground-water conditions at Beale Air Force Base and vicinity, California
R. W. Page
1980, Open-File Report 80-204
Ground-water conditions were studied in a 168-square-mile area between the Sierra Nevada and the Feather River in Yuba County, Calif. The area is in the eastern part of the Sacramento Valley and includes most of Beale Air Force Base. Source, occurrence, movement, and chemical quality of the ground water were...
Borehole geophysical measurements for hole UE25-3, Nevada Test Site, Nuclear Waste Isolation Program
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James H. Scott
1980, Open-File Report 80-126
Borehole geophysical measurements made in drill hole UE25a-3 with a U.S. Geological Survey research well-logging truck are presented in this paper. The purpose of these logging measurements is to provide in-situ physical properties information that is not commercially available on drill hole UE25a-3. Well logs are presented in this paper...
Analysis of borehole geophysical data in an evaporite sequence at Salt Valley, Utah
Jeffrey J. Daniels, James H. Scott, Robert J. Hite
1980, Open-File Report 80-525
Interpretation of the lithology of an interbed sequence (thin-bedded sediments between thick layers of salt) is often difficult due to the presence of dolomitic sandstones and halite inclusions. The most useful well logging measurements in an evaporite sequence are gamma-ray, neutron-neutron, density, and acoustic velocity. The high resistivity of salt...
Ground-water availability and water quality in Farmington, Connecticut
David L. Mazzaferro
1980, Open-File Report 80-751
The strataified-drift aquifer in Farmington, Conn., is capable of yielding large amounts of water to individual wells. About 14 square miles of Farmington is underlain by stratified-drift deposits which, in places, are more than 450 feet thick. The most productive deposits are found in the Farmington River valley, from Unionville...

Revised nomenclature and stratigraphic relationships of the Fredericksburg Complex and Quantico Formation of the Virginia Piedmont
Louis Pavlides
1980, Professional Paper 1146
The Fredericksburg Complex, in part a migmatitic terrane in northeast Virginia, is subdivided on the basis of lithology, as well as aeromagnetic and aeroradiometric data, into two metamorphic suites. These suites are separated by the northeast-trending Spotsylvania lineament, a rectilinear geophysical feature that is probably the trace of an old...
