Bottom features and processes related to drifting ice on the Arctic shelf, Alaska
Erk Reimnitz, Peter W. Barnes, Tau Rho Alpha
1973, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 532
Early investigations of artic shelf regions led to the hypothesis that certain micro-relief forms are related to the action of grounded ice (for example, Rex, 1955). Since the introduction of side-scan sonar as a tool for ocean-floor surveys, a number of workers have described the occurrence of linear bottom features...
Fluvial-sediment discharge to the oceans from the conterminous United States
Westley Farnsworth Curtis, James J. Culbertson, Edith B. Chase
1973, Circular 670
This report is a contribution to the UNESCO-sponsored project of the International Hydrological Decade called the World Water Balance. Annual fluvial-sediment discharge from the conterminous United States averages 491,449,600 short tons, of which 14,204,000 is discharged to the Atlantic Ocean, 378,179,000 to the Gulf of Mexico, and 99,066,600 to the...
Cost analysis of ground-water supplies in the North Atlantic region, 1970
Dagfin John Cederstrom
1973, Water Supply Paper 2034
The cost of municipal and industrial ground water (or, more specifically, large supplies of ground water) at the wellhead in the North Atlantic Region in 1970 generally ranged from 1.5 to 5 cents per thousand gallons. Water from crystalline rocks and shale is relatively expensive. Water from sandstone is less...
Water facts and figures for planners and managers
John Henry Frederick Feth
1973, Circular 601-I
Water is defined in terms of its chemical composition and dominant physical properties, such as expansion on freezing and high surface tension. Water on the earth is about 97 percent in the seas, 2 percent in glacier ice, principally Greenland and Antarctica. Man is left with less than 1 percent...
Availability of water from limestone and dolomite aquifers in southwest Ohio and the relation of water quality to the regional flow system
Stanley Eugene Norris, Richard E. Fidler
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-17
The largest ground-water supplies from the 150 to 450-foot thick carbonate-rock aquifer in southwest Ohio are available in a 2,800 squaremile area on the crest and eastern flank of the Cincinnati arch. Well production in the high-yield area is mainly from the Newburg zone, a permeable stratum in the lower...
Occurrence and distribution of selected metals in streams near Huntsville, Alabama
E. R. German, Alfred L. Knight
1973, Circular 679
Arsenic, cadmium, chromium, cobalt, lead, mercury, and zinc are widely distributed around Huntsville, Ala. However, concentrations of these metals in streamflow in the vicinity of the Huntsville municipal water intake during June, August, and September 1971 did not exceed the limits recommended for a public drinking water supply. The occurrence...
CRIB; the mineral resources data bank of the U.S. Geological Survey
James Alfred Calkins, Olaf Kays, Eleanor K. Keefer
1973, Circular 681
The recently established Computerized Resources Information Bank (CRIB) of the U.S. Geological Survey is expected to play an increasingly important role in the study of United States' mineral resources. CRIB provides a rapid means for organizing and summarizing information on mineral resources and for displaying the results. CRIB consists of...
