Also, expert assistance was provided for Taiwan's establishment of a routine field program using the equipment....
Changes in the discharge characteristics of thermal springs and fumaroles in the Long Valley Caldera, California, resulting from earthquakes on May 25-27, 1980
M.L. Sorey, Mark D. Clark
1981, Open-File Report 81-203
Changes in flow rate and turbidity have been observed and measured in hot springs in the Long Valley caldera, California, following earthquakes with magnitudes up to 6.3 in May 1980. Increases in flow rate of some hot springs occurred within minutes of the earthquakes, followed by more gradual decreases in...

Multi-saline sample distillation apparatus for hydrogen isotope analyses: Design and accuracy
Afifa Afifi Hassan
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-25
A distillation apparatus for saline water samples was designed and tested. Six samples may be distilled simultaneously. The temperature was maintained at 400 C to ensure complete dehydration of the precipitating salts. Consequently, the error in the measured ratio of stable hydrogen isotopes resulting from incomplete dehydration of hydrated salts...
Water use in Ohio, 1975
R. Michael Hathaway, Michael Eberle
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-17
The estimated water use in Ohio for all purposes in 1975 was 16 ,431 million gallons per day. Of this total, 15,321 were taken from surface water while the remaining 1,110 represent ground-water withdrawals. Totals by category are as follows (in million gallons per day): Thermoelectric power generation, 12 ,404;...

Flow characteristics and water-quality conditions in the Spokane River, Coeur D'Alene Lake to Post Falls Dam, northern Idaho
H.R. Seitz, M.L. Jones
1981, Open-File Report 82-102
The Spokane River leaves the northern end of Coeur d'Alene Lake, flows westward past the cities of Coeur d'Alene and Post Falls, Idaho, through the Spokane Valley, and joins the Columbia River west of Spokane, Wash. Cross-sectional properties and water-quality characteristics were determined for flows of 6,100 to 8,440 cubic...
Effects of volcanism on the glaciers of Mount St. Helens
Melinda M. Brugman, Austin Post
1981, Circular 850-D
The cataclysmic eruption of Mount St. Helens May 18, 1980, removed 2.9 km2 (about 0.13 km3) of glacier snow and ice including a large part of Shoestring, Forsyth, Wishbone, Ape, Nelson, and all of Loowit and Leschi Glaciers. Minor eruptions and bulging of the volcano from March 27 to May...
