A model for earthquakes near Palisades Reservoir, southeast Idaho
David Schleicher
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 393-400
The Palisades Reservoir seems to be triggering earthquakes: epicenters are concentrated near the reservoir, and quakes are concentrated in spring, when the reservoir level is highest or is rising most rapidly, and in fall, when the level is lowest. Both spring and fall quakes appear to be triggered by minor...
Possible extension of mineral belts, northern part of Coeur d'Alene district, Idaho
Garland B. Gott, Joseph M. Botbol
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 1-7
The ore deposits in the northern part of the Coeur d'Alene district are located within rocks of the Belt Supergroup that have been intruded by Cretaceous quartz monzonites. Lead-zinc-silver replacement veins constitute most of the deposits. The geometry of the district has been modified by post-ore faulting along the Osburn,...
Ground-water quality beneath solid-waste disposal sites at anchorage, Alaska
Chester Zenone, D.E. Donaldson, J.J. Grunwaldt
1975, Ground Water (13) 182-190
Studies at three solid-waste disposal sites in the Anchorage area suggest that differences in local geohydrologic conditions influence ground-water quality. A leachate was detected in ground water within and beneath two sites where the water table is very near land surface and refuse is deposited either at or below the...
Lithium in sediments and brines--how, why and where to search
James D. Vine
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 479-485
The possibility of using lithium in batteries to power electric vehicles and as fuel for thermonuclear power has focused attention on the limited resources of lithium other than in pegmatite minerals. The Clayton Valley, Nev., subsurface lithium brine has been the major source of lithium carbonate since about 1967, but...
Geology of Griggs and Steele Counties
John P. Bluemle
1975, Bulletin 64-1
Griggs and Steele Counties, located at the eastern edge of the Williston basin, are underlain by 400 to 2,600 feet of Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks that dip gently to the west. The Cretaceous Greenhorn, Carlile, Niobrara, and Pierre Formations lie directly beneath the glacial drift, and shale of the Pierre...
Geology of Porcupine Mountains in Carp River and White Pine Quadrangles, Michigan
Harold A. Hubbard
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 519-528
The Porcupine Mountains are the eroded remnants of the upper limb of an anticline that is faulted along most of its southern, overturned, limb. The exposed rocks include about 5,000 ft (1,525 m) of middle Keweenawan intermediate to mafic lava flows interbedded with subordinate lithic sedimentary rocks and also include...
Flood of July 21, 1975 in Mercer County, New Jersey
Stephen J. Stankowski, Robert D. Schopp, Anthony J. Velnich
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 51-75
Intense rainfall during the evening of July 20 and early morning hours of July 21, 1975 caused flooding of unprecedented magnitude in highly urbanized Mercer County, New Jersey. Over 6 inches (152 millimetres) of rainfall was recorded during a 10-hour period at Trenton, the capital of New Jersey. No lives...
Water resources data for California, 1974; Part 1: Surface water records; Volume 1: Colorado River Basin, Southern Great Basin, and Pacific Slope Basins excluding Central Valley
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1975, Water Data Report CA-74-1-1
Surface-water records for the 1974 water year for California, including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, are given in this report. Records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States also are included. The records were collected and computed by the...
Hydrogeologic data for the lower Connecticut River basin, Connecticut
J.W. Bingham, F.D. Paine, L.A. Weiss
1975, Connecticut Water Resources Bulletin 30
This report contains geologic, ground-water, and miscellaneous data on the quality of surface water collected for a water-resources inventory of the lower Connecticut River basin, Connecticut. The study was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in fiscal cooperation with the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection. A companion report (Connecticut Water...
Hydrogeologic data for the Farmington River basin, Connecticut
Herbert T. Hopkins, Elinor H. Handman
1975, Connecticut Water Resources Bulletin 28
This report contains hydrologic and geologic data collected and compiled as part of a water resources investigation of the Farmington River basin, Connecticut. The study was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in fiscal cooperation with the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection. A companion report, Connecticut Water Resources Bulletin No....
Geologic map showing springs rich in carbon dioxide or or chloride in California
Ivan Barnes, William P. Irwin, H.A. Gibson
1975, Water Resources Investigations Open-File Map 1975
Carbon dioxide- and chloride-rich springs occur in all geologic provinces in California, but are most abundant in the Coast Ranges and the Great Valley. The carbon-dioxide-rich springs issue mainly from Franciscan terrane; they also are rich in boron and are of the metamorphic type (White, 1957). Based on isotopic data,...
Cost, accuracy, and consistency comparisons of land use maps made from high-altitutde aircraft photography and ERTS imagery
Katherine A. Fitzpatrick
1975, Final Report Volume 6
Accuracy analyses for the land use maps of the Central Atlantic Regional Ecological Test Site were performed for a 1-percent sample of the area. Researchers compared Level II land use maps produced at three scales, 1:24,000, 1:100,000, and 1:250,000 from high-altitude photography, with each other and with point data obtained...
Aerial photographic reproductions
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1975, Report
The National Cartographic Information Center of the U.S. Geological Survey maintains records of aerial photographic coverage of the United States and its Territories, based on reports from other Federal agencies as well as State governmental agencies and commercial companies. From these records, the Center furnishes data to prospective purchasers on...
Environmental problems in the coastal and wetlands ecosystems of Virginia Beach, Virginia
Peter J. Buzzanell, Herbert K. McGinty III
1975, Report
Many of the city of Virginia Beach's beach stabilization and sewage disposal problems are the result of an inadequate understanding of the physical and biological systems. Influenced by population and economic pressures, natural systems were artificially stabilized by engineering projects that had to be constantly maintained. These same pressures continue...
Land use information and air quality planning
Wallace E. Reed, John E. Lewis
1975, Final Report Volume 7
The pilot national land use information system developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in the Central Atlantic Regional Ecological Test Site project has provided an improved technique for estimating emissions, diffusion, and impact patterns of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter. Implementation of plans to control air quality requires land...
