The mineral resource potential of the Thaniyah and Al Ufayriyah quadrangles, sheets 20/42 C and 20/42 A, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Michael D. Fenton
1983, Open-File Report 83-388
Areas with mineral resource potential in the Thaniyah and Al Ufayriyah quadrangles in the central Precambrian Shield of Saudi Arabia have been identified by reconnaissance rock geochemistry and inspection of ancient prospects. Locally anomalous areas in plutonic terrane have been defined as possible sources of tin, molybdenum, or base metal...
Linear features determined from Landsat imagery in North Dakota
M. E. Cooley
1983, Open-File Report 83-937
The report consists of a map (scale 1:500,000) that shows the linear features determined from Landsat imagery in North Dakota. The linear features, sometimes called linear trends or lineaments, are not identified as to type or origin. Most probably represent fractures or fracture zones, which may affect the movement of...
Lineaments and fracture traces, Decatur County, Indiana
Theodore K. Greeman
1983, Open-File Report 82-918
Lineanents and fracture traces have been mapped throughout Decatur County, Indiana. These lineaments and fracture traces may indicate that solution enlarged vertical fractures in the limestone and dolonite aquifers underlie most of the county. The use of lineament and fracture-trace maps in selecting bedrock-drilling sites results in a significant increase...

Michael D. Fenton
1983, Open-File Report 83-368
Areas with potential for metallic mineral deposits in the Wadi al Jarir and Al Jurdhawiyah quadrangles, northeastern Arabian Shield, have been identified by reconnaissance rock geochemistry, inspection of ancient prospects, and interpretation of previous work. The ancient prospects of Abraq Shawfan, Abraq Shawfan South, Ad Du'ibi, Ad Du'ibi West, and...

Report of the U.S. Geological Survey's analytical evaluation program; standard reference water samples M-82 (major constituents), T-83 (trace constituents), N-8 (nutrients), and P-2 (precipitation snowmelt)
V.J. Janzer
1983, Open-File Report 83-864
The U.S. Geological Survey began an interlaboratory testing program of reference water samples in 1962. Principal purposes of the program are to provide a means for participating water laboratories to: (1) identify analytical problem areas; (2) ascertain the accuracy and precision of common water analyses and analytical methods and; (3)...

The research results described in the following summaries were submitted by the investigators on November 15, 1982 and cover the 6-month period from April 1, 1982 through September 30, 1982. These reports include both work performed under contracts administered by the Geological Survey and work by members of the Geological Survey. The report summaries...
A guide to the larvae of the Nearctic Diamesinae (Diptera; Chironomidae), the genera Boreoheptagyia, Protanypus, Diamesa, and Pseudokiefferiella
J.S. Doughman
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4006
The subfamily Diamesinae consists of the monogeneric tribes Boreoheptagnini and Parotanypini and the diverse tribe Diamesini with seven genera. These midges are prevalent in clean, cool arctic-alpine waters, but less abundant in the lowlands. Keys and descriptions herein to the known species of these nine genera may prove valuable in...

The Southern Hills regional aquifer system of southeastern Louisiana and southwestern Mississippi
A. Buono
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4189
The Southern Hills regional aquifer system, named in a petition to the Environmental Protection Agency for designation as a sole or principal source of drinking water, is the primary source of public and domestic supplies in the northern 10 parishes of southeastern Louisiana. The gulfward dipping and thickening, complexly interbedded...
Problems in estimating self-supplied industrial water use by indirect methods, the California example
R.J. Burt
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4276
Consumptive fresh-water use by industry in California is estimated at about 230 million gallons per day, or about one-half of one percent of agricultural withdrawals in the State , and only about 1 percent of agricultural consumptive use. Therefore, a significant State-wide realignment of the total water resources could not...
Reconnaissance of benthic invertebrates from tributary streams of the Yampa and North Platte River basins, northwestern Colorado
L. J. Britton
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4191
Benthic invertebrates were collected from tributaries of the Yampa River in Routt and Moffat Counties, and tributaries of the North Platte River in Jackson County. Field water-quality measurements of water temperature, specific conductance, pH, dissolved oxygen, and bed material size were also made to aid in assessing stream water-quality conditions....
Effects of recharge from drainage wells on quality of water in the Floridan Aquifer in the Orlando area, central Florida
G. R. Schiner, E. R. German
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4094
Approximately 400 drainage wells in the Orlando area inject, by gravity, large quantities of stormwater runoff that may or may not be suitable for most purposes without treatment into the same freshwater zones of the Floridan aquifer tapped for public supply. The wells are used mostly to control lake levels...
