1978, Hydrologic Atlas 582
The Lake Superior watershed is mostly a highland, generally 1,200 feet (366 meters) to 2,000 feet (610 meters) above mean sea level. It extends from Duluth to the Canadian border. Both maximum and minimum altitudes for Minnesota occur in the watershed; 2.301 ft (701 ) at Eagle Mountain, about 12 mi...
Deformation of the Roberts Mountains Allochthon in north-central Nevada
James George Evans, Ted G. Theodore
1978, Professional Paper 1060
During the Antler orogeny in Late Devonian and Early Mississippian time, early and middle Paleozoic siliceous rocks, largely chert and sha1e, were thrust eastward for 90 to 160 km over coexisting carbonate rocks. Minor and major structures of two small areas of the allochthon at Battle Mountain and in the...
Reconstruction of crustal blocks of California on the basis of initial strontium isotopic compositions of Mesozoic granitic rocks
Ronald Wayne Kistler, Zell E. Peterman
1978, Professional Paper 1071
Initial 87Sr/ 86 Sr was determined for samples of Mesozoic granitic rocks in the vicinity of the Garlock fault zone in California. These data along with similar data from the Sierra Nevada and along the San Andreas fault system permit a reconstruction of basement rocks offset by the Cenozoic lateral...
Geologic map of the Coprates Quadrangle of Mars

Ground-water resources of the Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina
M. D. Winner Jr.
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-52
Fresh groundwater in the Cape Lookout National Seashore in North Carolina occurs in the unconfined aquifer, an upper confined aquifer, and a lower limestome aquifer. The unconfined aquifer beneath dunes on the barrier islands is estimated to yield as much as 30 gallons per minute of freshwater to a horizontal...

Geology of the uranium prospect at Camp Smith, New York, with a new model for the formation of uranium deposits in metamorphosed submarine volcanogenic rocks
Richard I. Grauch
1978, Open-File Report 78-949
Uraninite of Precambrian age occurs locally in and around a massive sulfide deposit at Camp Smith, Westchester and Putnam Counties, New York. The host rocks are believed to be part of a sequence of marine sediments and submarine volcanogenic rocks that were metamorphosed to leucogneisses, amphibolites, and amphoholite gneisses in...

Postimpoundment survey of water-quality characteristics of Raystown Lake, Huntingdon and Bedford Counties, Pennsylvania
Donald R. Williams
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-42
Water-quality data, collected from May 1974 to September 1976 at thirteen sites within Raystown Lake and in the inflow and outflow channels, define the water-quality characteristics of the lake water and the effects of impoundment on the quality of the lake outflow. Depth-profile measurements show Raystown Lake to be dimictic....

Results and interpretation of exploratory drilling near the Picacho Fault, south-central Arizona
Thomas L. Holzer
1978, Open-File Report 78-1016
Modern surface faulting along the Picacho fault, east of Picacho, Arizona, has been attributed to ground-water withdrawal. In September 1977, three exploratory test holes were drilled 5 km east of Picacho and across the Picacho fault to investigate subsurface conditions and the mechanism of the faulting. The holes were logged...
