Geochemistry and mineralogy of the carbonates of the Creede mining district, Colorado
Pamela Heald Wetlaufer
1977, Open-File Report 77-706
This paper describes the results of a study of the carbonate gangue in the silver-base metal ore deposit of the Creede mining district, located in Tertiary volcanic rocks of the central San Juan Mountains, southwestern Colorado. Two carbonate stages can be distinguished and defined on the basis of mineral association,...

Seepage tests on No Name Creek, Colville Indian Reservation, Washington, May 12-13, 1977
Robert D. MacNish
1977, Open-File Report 77-618
To gain information for a water-management situation, a seepage test was performed on May 12-13, 1977, on a reach of No Name Creek on the Colville Indian Reservation in north-central Washington. On May 13, injection of a concentrated brine at the head of the test reach permitted chloride-concentration data to...

Quality of rivers of the United States, 1974 water year: based on the National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN)
Richard O. Hawkinson, John F. Ficke, L.G. Saindon
1977, Open-File Report 77-151
The National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) was established by the U.S Geological Survey to determine and compare the quality at key locations on the Nation 's major rivers. There are 345 stations in the network--data from the first 101 of these (those operating during the 1974 water year) are...
Low-flow characteristics of streams on the Olympic Peninsula, Washington
W.L. Haushild, D.E. LaFrance
1977, Open-File Report 77-812
Streams in lowland basins of the Olympic Peninsula, Washington, generally have their low flows in summer and peak flows in winter, whereas streams originating at higher elevations in the mountains have their low flows in late summer-early fall and they have both winter and spring peak flows. Data from long-term...

1977, Open-File Report 77-461
Water levels measured during March 1977 in 350 wells tapping alluvial aquifers in Adams, Larimer, Logan, Morgan, Sedgwick, Washington, and Weld Counties, Colo., are included in this report. Water-level records for the 4 preceding years also are included to serve as references illustrating declining or rising water levels.Water-level measurements made...

Summary of the geology and physical properties of the Climax Stock, Nevada Test Site
Florian Maldonado
1977, Open-File Report 77-356
The Climax stock is a composite stock of Cretaceous age, composed of quartz monzonite and granodiorite, which intrudes sedimentary rocks of Paleozoic and Precambrian age. Tertiary rocks consisting of tuff, welded tuff, and breccia overlie the stock and sedimentary rocks. Hydrothermal alteration of the granodiorite and quartz monzonite is found mainly...
Distribution and character of naleds in northeastern Alaska
Deborah Harden, Peter W. Barnes, Erk Reimnitz
1977, Open-File Report 77-91
An examination of the distribution of river naleds seen in Landsat satellite imagery and high- and low-altitude aerial photography of Alaska's North Slope indicates that these features are widespread east of the Colville River and less abundant to the west. Where naleds occur, stream channels are wide and often form...

Shelled benthic fauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea
Dennis M. Mann
1977, Open-File Report 77-672
The purposes of this study were to identify the benthic shelled infauna and epifauna of the eastern Chukchi Sea, compile species lists and distribution maps, determine recurrent groups of species (communities), and examine the environmental parameters that may control the distribution of the faunal groups. The study was partly supported...

Chemical, isotopic, and gas compositions of selected thermal springs in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah
Robert H. Mariner, T. S. Presser, William C. Evans
1977, Open-File Report 77-654
Twenty-seven thermal springs in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah were sampled for detailed chemical and isotopic analysis. The springs issue sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, or sodium mixed-anion waters of near neutral (6.2) to alkaline (9.2) pH. High concentrations of fluoride, more than 8 milligrams per liter, occur in Arizona in...
Hot springs of the central Sierra Nevada, California
Robert H. Mariner, T. S. Presser, William C. Evans
1977, Open-File Report 77-559
Thermal springs of the central Sierra Nevada issue dilute to slightly saline sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, or sodium mixed-anion waters ranging in pH from 6.4 to 9.3. The solubility of chalcedony appears to control the silica concentration in most of the spring waters. Fales Hot Springs may be associated with...
