Chemical character of water in the Red River alluvial aquifer, Louisiana
M.S. Whitfield
1980, Open-File Report 80-1018
The Red River alluvial aquifer of Louisiana underlies approximately 2,000 square miles in the Red River Valley of Louisiana. The aquifer is Pleistocene in age and consists of clay, silt, sand, and gravel deposited by the Red River. Sand and gravel constitute the lower two-thirds of the deposit, the most...
Seismic refraction data for shots recorded in the Coso Range, California, October 1976
A. W. Walter, Craig S. Weaver
1980, Open-File Report 80-186
The Coso Range lies in the southwest corner of the Basin and Range province, east of the Sierra Nevada and north of the Garlock Fault. The range, circular in form, is covered by a thin sequence of late-cenozoic volcanics which overlie highly fractured crystalline basement, similar in composition to the...

1980, Open-File Report 80-16
A high-intensity summer rain estimated at 8 inches in 2 hours caused flooding on a small stream near Thornville, Ohio, destroying a culvert and highway fill on State Route 188. Computation of peak discharges of 3,250 feet3 per second at a site 4,400 feet above and of 4,050 feet3 per...
Test drilling in basalts, Lalamilo area, South Kohala District, Hawaii
Warren E. Teasdale
1980, Open-File Report 80-1299
Test drilling has determined that a downhole-percussion airhammer can be used effectively to drill basalts in Hawaii. When used in conjunction with a foam-type drilling fluid, the hammer-bit penetration rate was rapid. Continuous drill cuttings from the materials penetrated were obtained throughout the borehole except from extremely fractured or weathered...

1980, Open-File Report 80-308
These sections were measured prior to 1960, before adoption of the metric system. Publication was delayed by other assignments of the authors and later by the untimely death of J. C. Wright. They are being released at this time because of the increased interest in the uranium potential of Jurassic...
