Eruptive history of the Dieng Mountains region, central Java, and potential hazards from future eruptions
C. Dan Miller, R. Sushyar, Santoso, S. Hamidi
1983, Open-File Report 83-68
The Dieng Mountains region consists of a complex of late Quaternary to recent volcanic stratocones, parasitic vents, and explosion craters. Six age groups of volcanic centers, eruptive products, and explosion craters are recognized in the region based on their morphology, degree of dissection, stratigraphic relationships, and degree of weathering. These...

Instrumentation used for hydraulic testing of potential water-bearing formations at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant site in southeastern New Mexico
J.A. Basler
1983, Open-File Report 83-144
Requirements for testing hydrologic test wells at the proposed Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad, New Mexico, necessitated the use of inflatable formation packers and pressure transducers. Observations during drilling and initial development indicated small formation yields which would require considerable test times by conventional open-casing methods. A pressure-monitoring system...
Floods of November 1978 to March 1979 in Arizona and west-central New Mexico

This conference, the fourteenth in a series sponsored by the Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program, was held October 13-15, 1980 at Lake Wilderness, Washington. The stated purpose of the conference was to assess progress and the state of knowledge of earthquake hazards in the Puget Sound region of Washington. The small size of the group...
Sources and mechanisms of recharge for ground water in the west-central Amargosa Desert, Nevada– A geochemical interpretation
H.C. Claassen
1983, Open-File Report 83-542
Ground water in the west-central Amargosa Desert, Nevada, was recharged primarily by overland flow of snowmelt in or near the present-day stream channels, rather than by subsurface flow from highland recharge areas to the north. Geochemical arguments, including reaction mechanisms, are used to support these findings. Carbon-, hydrogen-, and oxygen-isotope...

Limnological study of Shasta Lake, Shasta County, California, with emphasis on the effects of the 1977 drought
S.A. Rettig, Gilbert C. Bortleson
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4081
An intensive limnological study of Shasta Lake was made in conjunction with the California Department of Water Resources during the 1977 drought. Water-quality data were collected from March 1977 through September 1978 at six lake stations and four lake tributary stations. Data collected during and after the drought were compared....

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...
