Ground water in Myrtle Creek - Glendale area, Douglas County, Oregon
F. J. Frank
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-8
The Myrtle Creek-Glendale area covers about 400 mi2 (1,000 km2 in Douglas County in southwestern Oregon.  Although the geologic formations of the area have low permeabilities and generally yield small amounts of water to wells, ground water is the chief source of water for domestic usse in rural parts of the...
Selected geologic information from drill holes in southeastern Iowa
Daniel J. Gockel
1979, Open-File Report 79-415
This report presents selected geologic information derived from wells in a 22-county area of southeastern Iowa. The information was extracted from the Automatic Data Processing (ADP) geologic file of the Iowa and U.S. Geological Surveys. The data presented include location, well identification number, and elevation of the well sites; depth and stratigraphic classification of...
Ground-water quality in the upper Santa Ana River basin, southern California
Lawrence A. Eccles
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-113
The principal ground-water quality problems in the Santa Ana River basin, as determined from two samplings (1968-69 and 1977-78), are high concentrations of dissolved solids in general and nitrate-nitrogen in particular. The distribution of dissolved solids exceeding 800 milligrams per liter was smaller in area in 1977-78 than in 1968-69....
Coastal flood of February 7, 1978, in Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire
Russell A. Gadoury
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-61
On February 6-8, 1978, New England was battered by one of the most severe winter storms of record. The storm produced record snowfall in many areas of Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Spring high tides (sun and moon in such alinement as to cause the highest tides of the month), a...
A synoptic approach for analyzing erosion as a guide to land-use planning
William M. Brown III, Walter G. Hines, David A. Rickert, Gary L. Beach
1979, Circular 715-L
A synoptic approach has been devised to delineate the relationships that exist' between physiographic factors, land-use activities, and resultant erosional problems. The approach involves the development of an erosional-depositional province map and a numerical impact matrix for rating the potential for erosional problems. The province map is prepared by collating...
Analysis of ground water by different laboratories: a comparison of chloride and nitrate data, Nassau and Suffolk counties, New York
Brian G. Katz, Richard K. Krulikas
1979, Open-File Report 79-1063
Water samples from wells in Nassau and Suffolk Counties were analyzed for chloride and nitrate. Two samples were collected at each well; one was analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey, the other by a laboratory in the county from which the sample was taken. Results were compared statistically by paired-sample...
Effects of landfill leaching on water quality and biology of a nearby stream, South Cairo, Greene County, New York
Theodore A. Ehlke
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-13
A 1-kilometer stream reach receiving leachate-enriched water from a small municipal landfill in Greene County, N.Y., was studied from 1971-75 to document streamflow rates and chemical quality of the stream and ground water. The distribution of benthic invertebrates and microorganisms in the stream above the landfill was markedly different from...
Metals in Devonian kerogenous marine strata at Gibellini and Bisoni properties in southern Fish Creek Range, Eureka County, Nevada
George A. Desborough, F. G. Poole, R. K. Hose, A. S. Radtke
1979, Open-File Report 79-530
A kerogen-rich sequence of siliceous mudstone, siltstone, and chert as much as 60 m thick on ridge 7129 in the southern Fish Creek Range, referred to as Gibellini facies of the Woodruff Formation, has been evaluated on the surface and in drill holes principally for its potential resources of vanadium,...
Analysis of picric acid in water by high-performance liquid chromatography
D.F. Goerlitz
1979, Open-File Report 79-207
Methods for the determination of picric acid (2,4,6, trinitrophenol) in water employing high-performance liquid chromatography are presented. Ion-pair chromatography under an isocratic condition is performed on a reverse-phase column. Picric acid can be determined directly in water at a lower detection limit of 10 micrograms per liter. By use of...
Water resources of the Marquette Iron Range area, Marquette County, Michigan
N.G. Grannemann
1979, Open-File Report 79-1339
Dependable water supplies are vital to the mining industry in the Marquette Iron Range in Michigan. Development of processes that concentrate and pelletize low-grade iron ore has permitted mining to expand during the past two decades. Water demand has increased both for iron ore concentration processes and for the area...
Initial report of the Petrophysics Laboratory
Graham R. Hunt, G. R. Johnson, G.R. Olhoeft, D.E. Watson
1979, Circular 789
Current national requirements for energy and mineral resources, and for protection of the quality of the environment, have focused attention on the need to develop new methods and interpretation techniques to be used in understanding geologic systems. Geophysical surveys play a significant role in acquiring this information, particularly by providing...
Formation and resulfidization of a South Texas roll-type uranium deposit
Martin B. Goldhaber, Richard L. Reynolds, Robert O. Rye
1979, Open-File Report 79-1651
Core samples from a roll type uranium deposit in Live Oak County, south Texas have been studied and results are reported for Se, Mo, FeS2 and organic-carbon distribution, sulfide mineral petrology, and sulfur isotopic composition of iron-disulfide phases. In addition, sulfur isotopic compositions of dissolved sulfate and sulfide from the...
