Summary of results of frictional sliding studies, at confining pressures up to 6.98 kb, in selected rock materials
R. Summers, J. Byerlee
1977, Open-File Report 77-142
This report is a collection of stress-strain charts which were produced by deforming selected simuiated fault gouge materials. Several sets of samples consisted of intact cylinders, 1.000 inch in diameter and 2.500 inches long. The majority of the samples consisted of thin layers of the selected sample material, inserted within...
Late diagenetic indicators of buried oil and gas
Terrence J. Donovan, Mary C. Dalziel
1977, Open-File Report 77-817
At least three hydrocarbon seepage mechanisms are interpreted to operate over oil and gas fields. These are: (1) effusion ofh ydrocarbons through inadequate caprocks and along faults and fractures, (2) low-molecular-weight hydrocarbons dissolved in water moving vertically through capping shales as a result of a hydrodynamic or chemical potential drive,...
Sedimentation in Santa Margarita Lake, San Luis Obispo County, California
G. Douglas Glysson
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-56
The 1975 storage capacity of Santa Margarita Lake in San Luis Obispo County, Calif., was 41,400 acre-feet, a decrease of 3,400 acre-feet since 1941. Usable capacity decreased from 25,800 to 23,000 acre-feet. Long-term sediment yield for the Salinas River basin upstream from the lake was estimated at 1,150 tons per...
Water-level changes in wells along the west side of the Cedar Creek anticline, southeastern Montana
D.L. Coffin, T.E. Reed, S.D. Ayers
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-93
Water levels have been measured periodically in wells along the west side of the Cedar Creek anticline in southeastern Montana since 1962-64. The measurements show the response of the Fox Hills-Hell Creek aquifer of Late Cretaceous age to withdrawals for domestic, stock, and industrial uses. Water levels were as much...
Computation of records of streamflow at control structures
Dannie L. Collins
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-8
Traditional methods of computing streamflow records on large, low-gradient streams require a continuous record of water-surface slope over a natural channel reach. This slope must be of sufficient magnitude to be accuratly measured with available stage measuring devices. On highly regulated streams, this slope approaches zero during periods of low...
Ground water in the Koehn Lake area, Kern County, California
J. H. Koehler
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-66
Hydrologic characteristics of the Koehn Lake area were investigated to determine the effects of external stresses on the system. Unconsolidated deposits are more than 900 feet thick in the central part of the basin. Cantil Valley fault, in the central part of the basin, acts as a barrier to the...
Water and related problems in coal-mine areas of Alabama
Alfred L. Knight, John G. Newton
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-130
Water-resource problems or potential problems in Alabama resulting from surface and subsurface coal mining include erosion and sedimentation, flooding, diversion of drainage, decline in water level, land subsidence, and the degradation of water quality. The degradation of water quality is the most serious and widespread coal-mine related problem in Alabama....
Water quality of selected streams in the coal area of southeastern Montana
J. R. Knapton, P. W. McKinley
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-80
This report summarizes and evaluates water-quality data collected at 35 stream sites the the coal region of southeastern Montana. Sarpy Creek, Armells Creek, and Rosebud Creek sometimes have dissolved-solids concentrations that cause water to be marginal for agricultural purposes. At times of rainfall and snowmelt, the runoff water mixes with...
Availability of ground water in the lower Merrimack River basin southern New Hampshire
J. E. Cotton
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-69
This map, scale 1:125,000, is a preliminary assessment of the availability of ground water in the lower Merrimack River basin in southern New Hampshire. It is a generalization of several hydrogeologic factors and provides a guideline for ground-water exploration, which is useful in water- and land-use planning. It does not...
Digital model analysis of the principal artesian aquifer, Savannah, Georgia area
H. B. Counts, R.E. Krause
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-133
A digital model of the principal artesian aquifer has been developed for the Savannah, Georgia, area. The model simulates the response of the aquifer system to various hydrologic stresses. Model results of the water levels and water-level changes are shown on maps. Computations may be extended in time, indicating changes...
Ground-water resources of the alluvial aquifers in northeastern Larimer County, Colorado
R. T. Hurr, P.A. Schneider
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-7
Ground water is a source of municipal, domestic, stock, and irrigation supply for most of northeastern Larimer County, Colo. A study of the alluvial aquifers in the northeastern part of the county was conducted to determine volume of water in storage, rate and location of ground-water withdrawals, and chemical quality...
