Fast-ice thickness and snow depth in relation to oil entrapment potential, Prudhoe Bay, Alaska
Peter W. Barnes, Erk Reimnitz, Lawrence J. Toimil, Harry R. Hill
1979, Open-File Report 79-539
In winter, the undersurface of the sea ice on shallow arctic shelves acts upon the sea bed directly by contact and indirectly by influencing currents and turbulence. The under-ice surface would serve as a trap for pollutants such as oil and gas released from the sea bed. A knowledge of...
Examples of deep-water-bottom multiple dereverberation techniques applied to seismic-reflection data from the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf
Steven D. Peterson, A. H. Balch, W.C. Patterson, D. J. Taylor
1979, Open-File Report 79-1572
Seismic-reflection data recorded in deep water over the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf are often dominated by multiply-reflected seismic energy. This energy reverberates between the surface of the water and the seafloor (or other strong reflectors), and makes portions of the seismic data completely useless. Several different data-processing techniques can be...
Water-quality assessment of the L'Anguille River basin, Arkansas
Charles T. Bryant, Edward E. Morris, J. E. Terry
1979, Open-File Report 79-1482
For several years, dissolved oxygen in the L'Anguille River has been reduced to concentrations of less than 5.0 milligrams per liter during the summer and fall. The dissolved-oxygen reduction is due only in part to the municipal-waste discharges which enter the river. In addition, concentrations of pesticides have been reported...
Chemical and biological quality of selected lakes in Ohio, 1976 and 1977
Robert L. Tobin, John D. Youger
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-109
Twenty-eight Ohio lakes (14 per year) were sampled by the U.S. Geological Survey and Ohio Environmental Protection Agency for the water-quality characteristics during the spring and summer of 1976 and 1977. Data items included: profiles of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductance; physical, biological, nutrient, and organic characteristics; major...
Program and plans of the U.S. Geological Survey for producing information needed in National Seismic hazards and risk assessment, fiscal years 1980-84
Walter W. Hays
1979, Circular 816
In accordance with the provisions of the Earthquake Hazards Reduction Act of 1977 (Public Law 95-124), the U.S. Geological Survey has developed comprehensive plans for producing information needed to assess seismic hazards and risk on a national scale in fiscal years 1980-84. These plans are based on a review of...
Assessment of geothermal resources of the United States: 1978
L.J. Patrick Muffler
1979, Circular 790
The geothermal resource assessment presented in this Circular is a refinement and updating of USGS Circular 726. Nonproprietary information available in June 1978 is used to assess geothermal energy in the ground and, when possible, to evaluate the fraction that might be recovered at the surface. Five categories of geothermal...
Estimating the gas and dye quantities for modified tracer technique measurements of stream reaeration coefficients
R. E. Rathbun
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-27
Measuring the reaeration coefficient of a stream with a modified tracer technique has been accomplished by injecting either ethylene or ethylene and propane together and a rhodamine-WT dye solution into the stream. The movement of the tracers through the stream reach after injection is described by a one-dimensional diffusion equation....
