Monitoring crustal strain, Cerro Prieto geothermal field, Baja California, Mexico
Ben Elder Lofgren, Bruce L. Massey
1979, Open-File Report 79-204
Significant ground deformation may be occurring in the Cerro Prieto geothermal area, Mexicali Valley, Mexico, as a direct result of extensive withdrawals of geothermal fluid and of continuing tectonism. In order to measure the magnitude and rate of this deformation, three networks of precise geodetic control were established in 1977-78,...
Statistical summaries of surface-water-quality data for selected sites in Oklahoma, through the 1975 water year
J. K. Kurklin
1979, Open-File Report 79-219
Statistical summaries of surface-water-quality data for 47 streams in Oklahoma have been compiled. Data for the period of record through the 1975 water year at each site were used to develop regression equations for specific conductance-constituent relationships for calcium, magnesium, sodium, sodium plus potassium, bicarbonate, sulfate, chloride, silica, and dissolved...

Map showing occurrences of spring-deposited travertine in the conterminous Western United States
J. H. Feth, Ivan Barnes
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-35
Extinct travertine terraces occur hundreds of meters above present levels of spring activity and have potentials for interpretation of ancient hydrologic systems, rates of downcutting, or rates of tectonic uplift that remain virtually unexploited. The abundance and size of extinct travertine deposits suggest that in many places, such as pinnacles...
