Measured and simulated ground-water levels in the Franklin area, southeastern Virginia
O. J. Cosner
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-83
The Lower Cretaceous aquifer is the principal source of water in Southeastern Virginia. Synoptic water-level measurements made since 1970 have been used to verify a digital model of the aquifer. Measurements made in December 1973, August and December 1974 were used to further verify the model, using updated pumpage for...

1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-85
Data were collected and summarized on the hydrology and hydrogeology of 949 lakes, 10 acres (4 hectares) or larger, in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, Minnesota. Eight tables totaling over 100 pages present data on location, depth, area, lake level, ecological and game-management classification, inflowing and outflowing streams, soils, bedrock...
Distribution and trend of nitrate, chloride, and total solids in water in the Magothy aquifer in southeast Nassau County, New York, from the 1950's through 1973
Henry F. Ku, Dennis J. Sulam
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-44
Concentrations of nitrate, chloride, and total solids in water in the Magothy aquifer, southeast Nassau County, N.Y., show a steadily increasing trend from the early 1950 's through 1973. Vertical distribution of nitrate, chloride, and total-solids concentrations as shown in cross sections of the study area indicate downward movement of...
High-resolution seismic reflection profiling for mapping shallow aquifers in Lee County, Florida
T.M. Missimer, Richard Alfred Gardner
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-45
High-resolution continuous seismic reflection profiling equipment was utilized to define the configuration of sedimentary layers underlying part of Lee County, Florida. About 45 miles (72 kilometers) of profile were made on the Caloosahatchee River Estuary and San Carlos Bay. Two different acoustic energy sources, a high resolution boomer and a...
Preliminary digital model of ground-water flow in the Madison Group, Powder River Basin and adjacent areas, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota, and Nebraska
Leonard F. Konikow
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-63
A digital simulation model was used to analyze regional ground-water flow in the Madison Group aquifer in the Powder River Basin in Montana and Wyoming and adjacent areas. Most recharge to the aquifer originates in or near the outcrop areas of the Madison in the Bighorn Mountains and Black Hills,...

Hydrologic effects of hypothetical earthquake-caused floods below Jackson Lake, northwestern Wyoming
W. R. Glass, T.N. Keefer, J.G. Rankl
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-77
Jackson Lake, located in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, is in an area of seismic instability. There is a possibility of flooding in the Snake River downstream from Jackson Lake Dam in the event of a severe earthquake. Hypothetical floods were routed 38 miles (61 kilometers) downstream from the dam...
Notes on a broad-band variant of the NCER seismic data multiplex system for use with field tape recorders
Jerry P. Eaton
1976, Open-File Report 76-87
Tests of the standard NCER multiplex system recorded and played back on both the Bell and Howell 3700B (about 0.1% tape speed variation) and on the Sony TC-126 cassette recorder (about 1% tape speed variation) showed that subtractive compensation employing a reference frequency multiplexed on the data track was remarkably...
