Comparative physiographic diagrams of Mount St. Helens, Washington, and Crater Lake, Oregon
Tau Rho Alpha, Jim M. Morley
1983, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1403
These physiographic diagrams provide a visual comparison of two Cascade Range volcanoes which have had their tops destroyed in different ways -- Mount St. Helens in 1980, Mount Mazama (whose site is now occupied by Crater Lake) about 6,800 years ago. Both volcanoes are viewed from the north from 30...
Simulated effects of anticipated coal mining on dissolved solids in selected tributaries of the Yampa River, northwestern Colorado
R. S. Parker, J. M. Norris
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4084
Identifying cumulative effects of coal mining on dissolved solids downstream from multipe coal-mining operations is particularly important in western basins. The problem of identifying cumulative effects is evident in the Trout Creek drainage, a tributary to the Yampa River in northwestern Colorado, where a number of mines are active and...
Hydrologic conditions in the Wheatland Flats area, Platte County, Wyoming
M. A. Crist
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4047
The area includes about 260 square miles in central Platte County that consists of Wheatland Flats and a border region. Wheatland Flats is an area of about 100 square miles that is bounded by Chugwater Creek on the east, the Laramie River on the north, and Sybille Creek on the...
Computer program and data listing for two-dimensional ground-water model for Laramie County, Wyoming
M. A. Crist
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4137
This is a supplement to the report, ' Effect of pumpage on ground-water levels as modeled in Laramie County, Wyoming, ' published as U.S. Geological Survey Water-Resources Investigations Open-File Report 80-1104. The computer program and data used to model ground-water conditions in post-Cretaceous rocks in Laramie County are listed. (USGS)...
A U.S. Geological Survey Data Standard (Specifications for representation of geographic point locations for information interchange)
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1983, Circular 878-B
This standard establishes uniform formats for geographic point location data. Geographic point location refers to the use of a coordinate system to define the position of a point that may be on, above, or below the Earth's surface. It provides a means for representing these data in digital form for...
Use of digital land-cover data from the Landsat satellite in estimating streamflow characteristics in the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee
E. F. Hollyday, G.R. Hansen
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4059
Streamflow may be estimated with regression equations that relate streamflow characteristics to characteristics of the drainage basin. A statistical experiment was performed to compare the accuracy of equations using basin characteristics derived from maps and climatological records (control group equations) with the accuracy of equations using basin characteristics derived from...
Three-dimensional digital-computer model of the principal ground-water reservoir of the Sevier Desert, Utah
W. F. Holmes
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4179
The principal ground-water reservoir in part of the Sevier Desert, Utah was modeled using a three-dimensional finite-difference model. The model was calibrated by comparing computed and observed water-level measurements in 1952, simulating results of aquifer tests, and simulating ground-water withdrawals during 1952-81 and comparing computed water-level changes during 1952-82 to...
Environmental-stratigraphic cross sections of the Cretaceous Fox Hills Sandstone and Hell Creek Formation and Paleocene Fort Union Formation, Richland and Roosevelt Counties, Montana
R. M. Flores, C.L. Lepp
1983, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1554
This study was conducted to determine the stratigraphic, lithofacies, and deopsitional relationships of the Cretaceous Fox Hills Sandstone and Hell Creek Formation and The Paleocene Fort Union Formation. These relationships, shown in sections A-A', B-B', C-C', and D-D', we established form nearly continuous exposures in the Missouri River valley in...
Appraisal of water-quality conditions, lower Black River, Windsor County, Vermont
K. W. Toppin
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4116
Six hydroelectric power dams are planned along a 22-mile reach of the lower Black River in southeastern Windsor County, Vermont. Data were collected at 10 stations, during water years 1977-81, to appraise quality conditions before construction. Average specific conductance of Black River is 101 micromhos indicating low concentrations of dissolved...
Streamflow losses and changes in ground-water levels along the Salt and Gila Rivers near Phoenix, Arizona — February 1978 to June 1980
L. J. Mann, P. B. Rohne
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4043
From March 1978 to June 1980, high runoff from the Salt and Verde drainage basins combined with large carryover storage in a reservoir system led to the release of about 8.26 million acre-feet of water. About 2.89 million acre-feet of the water was diverted above Granite Reef Dam, and about...
Reconnaissance geology of the Thaniyah Quadrangle, sheet 20/42 C, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Robert C. Greene
1983, Open-File Report 83-448
The Thaniyah quadrangle, sheet 20/42 C, is located in the transition zone between the Hijaz Mountains and the Najd Plateau of southwestern Saudi Arabia between lat 20?00' and 20?30' N., long 42?00' to 42?30' E. The quadrangle is underlain by Precambrian metavolcanic, metasedimentary, plutonic, and dike rocks. Metavolcanic rocks consist...
Subsidence from underground mining; environmental analysis and planning considerations
Fitzhugh T. Lee, John F. Abel
1983, Circular 876
Subsidence, a universal process that occurs in response to the voids created by extracting solids or liquids from beneath the Earth's surface, is controlled by many factors including mining methods, depth of extraction, thickness of deposit, and topography, as well as the in situ properties of the rock mass above...
Computation of inflows and outflows of eight regulated lakes in the Oswego River Basin, New York, 1930-79
Richard Lumia, R. B. Moore
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4112
Estimates of daily inflows and outflows of eight regulated lakes in the Oswego River basin and discharges of three rivers draining these lakes were computed and compiled for use in evaluated lake-regulation procedures in the basin 's stream and reservoir system and are stored on computer. This report includes a...
Mineral resource assessment of the Iron River 1° x 2° quadrangle, Michigan and Wisconsin
William F. Cannon
1983, Circular 887
The Iron River 1? x 2? quadrangle contains identified resources of copper and iron. Copper-rich shale beds in the north part of the quadrangle contain 12.2 billion pounds (5.5 billion kilograms) of copper in well-studied deposits including 9.2 billion pounds (4.2 billion kilograms) that are economically minable by 1980 standards....
