Chemical composition of bulk precipitation in the North-Central and Northeastern United States, December 1980 through February 1981
Norman E. Peters, Joseph E. Bonelli
1982, Circular 874
Samples of bulk precipitation were collected at 179 sites in the North-Central and Northeastern United States for 3 months during winter 1980-81 to provide data on the distribution of chemical constituents. Concentrations and average daily loads of 29 dissolved constituents were determined. Sodium and chloride deposition was relatively high in...

Hydrology of Salt Wells Creek — A plains stream in southwestern Wyoming
H. W. Lowham, L. L. DeLong, K. R. Collier, E. A. Zimmerman
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-62
Development of energy minerals in plains areas of Wyoming is expanding rapidly. Such development may affect water resources and hydrologic relations of the plains; however, little information exists concerning hydrologic processes for these areas. This report summarizes results of a hydrologic study made during 1975-78 of Salt Wells creek, a...

Ground-water resources of the glacial outwash along the White River, Johnson and Morgan counties, Indiana
Z. C. Bailey, T.E. Imbrigiotta
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4016
An 88-square-mile segment of the White River valley contains an unconfined sand and gravel aquifer ranging-from a featheredge zero, to 120 feet in saturated thickness. Hydraulic conductivity is 340 feet per day, and transmissivity is as much as 35,000 square feet per day. The aquifer, recharged primarily by precipitation, gains...

Quality-of-water data and statistical summary for selected coal-mined strip pits in Crawford and Cherokee counties, southeastern Kansas
Larry M. Pope, A.M. Diaz
1982, Open-File Report 82-1021
Quality-of-water data, collected October 21-23, 1980, and a statistical summary are presented for 42 coal-mined strip pits in Crawford and Cherokee Counties, Southeastern Kansas. The statistical summary includes minimum and maximum observed values , mean, and standard deviation. Simple linear regression equations relating specific conductance, dissolved solids, and acidity to...

The general quality of the ground water in the Sacramento Valley , Calif., in terms of dissolved-solids concentration is considered good for irrigation, domestic, and most other uses. This map shows the distribution of dissolved-solids concentrations and is based on about 1,330 chemical analyses collected from about 900 wells between...

A model for the simulation of flow of variable-density ground water in three dimensions under steady-state conditions
Emanuel Weiss
1982, Open-File Report 82-352
A computer program has been developed as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's national program of Regional Aquifer System Analysis (RASA) that generates input to ground-water flow models to enable them to simulate variable-density ground-water flow. Information required for the program's operation is: aquifer elevation, thickness, and ground-water density. Included...

Hydrology of coal-resource areas in the southern Wasatch Plateau, central Utah
T. W. Danielson, D.A. Sylla
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4009
The study defines the surface and groundwater hydrology of coal-resources areas in the Southern Wasatch Plateau in Central Utah and, where possible, predicts the hydrologic impacts of underground mining. Discharge data at four streamflow gaging stations indicated that from 5 to 29% of the average annual precipitation on a drainage...
Projected effects of proposed salinity-control projects on shallow ground water; preliminary results for the upper Brazos River basin, Texas
Sergio Garza
1982, Open-File Report 82-908
As part of the plan to control the natural salt pollution in the upper Brazos River basin of Texas, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers recommended construction of three impoundment and retention reservoirs. In connection with the proposed reservoirs, the U.S. Geological Survey was requested to define the existing ground-water...

Parts of the Imperial and the Superstition Hills faults moved right-laterally at the ground surface at the time of or shortly following the ML 5.6 Westmorland earthquake of 26 April 1981. The displacements occurred prior to any significant aftershocks on either fault and thus are classed as sympathetic. Although the...

1982, Open-File Report 82-730
Two kinds of radioactive anomalies are found in Wheeler Basin, both of which consist of biotite concentrations in Precambrian rocks, but the ones in migmatized biotite gneiss contain uraninite and the ones in Silver Plume Granite probably do not. At least 18 new uranium occurrences were found, most of which...
