Time-dependent spectral analysis of thirty-one strong-motion earthquake records
Virgilio Perez
1974, Open-File Report 74-48
Velocity response spectral analysis as a function of time for 5 percent critical damping is presented for the horizontal components of thirty-one earthquake records (61 components). A nomograph that allows conversion of the velocity response envelope to a displacement response envelope and a pseudo-absolute acceleration response envelope spectrum is also...
Flashing flow in hot water geothermal wells
Manuel Nathenson
1974, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (2) 743-751
The production characteristics of hot-water geothermal wells which flash to steam-water mixtures in the cased part of the hole were-analyzed. The flashing flow is assumed to be isenthalpic and, for purposes of calculating pressure drop, a finely dispersed mixture of equal average velocity. Water flow in the aquifer is treated...
Nonglacial origin for conglomerate beds in the Wajid Sandstone of Saudi Arabia
Donald G. Hadley, Dwight L. Schmidt
1974, Open-File Report 74-21
Conglomerate beds containing sparse boulders in the upper part of the Wajid Sandstone of Permian or older(?) age have been interpreted as Gondwana glacial deposits (Helal, 1965). These beds, exposed in the Bani Khatmah area near the southeastern edge of the Arabian Shield of Saudi Arabia, contain normally graded polymictic...
Volcanic hazards on the Island of Hawaii
Donal Ray Mullineaux, Donald W. Peterson
1974, Open-File Report 74-239
Volcanic hazards on the Island of Hawaii have been determined to be chiefly products of eruptions: lava flows, falling fragments, gases, and particle-and-gas clouds. Falling fragments and particle-and-gas clouds can be substantial hazards to life, but they are relatively rare. Lava flows are the chief hazard to property; they are...
Summary of hydrologic conditions and effects of Walt Disney World development in the Reedy Creek Improvement District, 1966-73
Arthur L. Putnam
1974, Open-File Report 74-339
The Reedy Creek Improvement District (hereinafter called the RCID) is an area of about 43 square miles (111. square kilometres) in southwest Orange and northwest Osceola Counties. Before development of Walt Disney World began (mid-1967), all of this tract of land was scrubby flatlands and swamp. Walt Disney World facilities...
A special planning technique for stream-aquifer systems
C.T. Jenkins, O. James Taylor
1974, Open-File Report 74-242
The potential effects of water-management plans on stream-aquifer systems in several countries have been simulated using electric-analog or digital-computer models. Many of the electric-analog models require large amounts of hardware preparation for each problem to be solved and some become so bulky that they present serious space and access problems....
The Sahelian Zone Remote Sensing Seminar/Workshop at Bamako, Mali, West Africa, April 17-28, 1973
Maurice J. Grolier, Raymond W. Fary, Stephen J. Gawarecki
1974, Open-File Report 74-196
The Sahelian Zone Remote Sensing Seminar/Workshop held in Bamako, Mali, April 17-28, 1973. The Government of Mali was host. The Agency for International Development sponsored and funded, and the U. S. Geological Survey prepared and presented the program. Thirteen countries and seven commissions were invited. Thirty-five scientists and management personnel...
Analog-model studies of ground-water hydrology in the Houston District, Texas
Donald G. Jorgensen
1974, Open-File Report 74-113
The major water-bearing units in the Houston district are the Chicot and the Evangeline aquifers. The Chicot aquifer overlies the Evangeline aquifer, which is underlain by the Burkeville confining layer. Both aquifers consist of unconsolidated and discontinuous layers of sand and clay that dip toward the Gulf of Mexico. Heavy...
Storage of low-level radioactive wastes in the ground; hydrogeologic and hydrochemical factors
Stavros Stefanu Papadopulos, Isaac Judah Winograd
1974, Open-File Report 74-344
The status of mathematical simulation techniques, as they apply to radioactive waste burial sites, is briefly reviewed, and hydrogeologic and hydrochemical data needs are listed in order of increasing difficulty and cost of acquisition. Predictive modeling, monitoring, and management of radionuclides dissolved and transported by ground water can best be...
