Uranium mobility during interaction of rhyolitic glass with alkaline solutions: dissolution of glass
Robert A. Zielinski
1977, Open-File Report 77-744
This report concerns investigations designed to identify the important physical and chemical parameters influencing the rate of release of uranium from glass shards of rhyolitic air-fall ash. Oxidizing, silica undersaturated, alkaline solutions are eluted through a column of rhyolitic glass shards at a carefully controlled temperature, pressure, and flow rate....
Energy development scenarios and water demands and supplies: an overview
F. A. Kilpatrick
1977, Open-File Report 77-697
On the basis of average mean annual flows, ample water exists in the upper Missouri River basin for energy development. The lack of storage and diversion works upstream as well as State compacts preclude the ready use of this surplus water. These surplus flows are impounded in mainstream reservoirs on...

Ground-water resources and geology of Colquitt County, Georgia
E. A. Zimmerman
1977, Open-File Report 77-56
Limestone beds of Eocene, Oligocene, and lower Miocene age, called the principal artesian aquifer, are the chief source of ground water for Colquitt County. Because streams are small, undependable and relatively inaccessible to most users, ground water is the most important source for increased industrial and agricultural water use. Southeast...
Nitrogen in water in Nassau and Suffolk counties, Long Island, New York, in 1971
Brian G. Katz, Stephen E. Ragone, C. Albert Harr
1977, Open-File Report 77-433
The concentration of inorganic nitrogen was measured in samples from 521 wells in the upper glacial and Magothy aquifers and from 46 streams in Nassau and Suffolk Counties during May 1971. The predominant form of dissolved nitrogen was nitrate. Nitrate concentrations (as N) in the upper glacial aquifer in both...
Hydrologic data for North Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1975
C.C. Kidwell
1977, Open-File Report 76-724
This report contains the rainfall, runoff, and storage data collected during the 1975 water year for the 21.6-square-mile area above the stream-gaging station North Creek near Jacksboro, Texas. The weighted-mean rainfall in the study area during the water year was 39.01 inches, which is greater than the 18-year average of...
Correlation of major eastern earthquake centers with mafic/ultramafic basement masses
Martin Francis Kane
1977, Open-File Report 77-134
Extensive gravity highs and associated magnetic anomalies are present in or near seven major eastern North American earthquake areas as defined by Hadley and Devine (1974). The seven include the five largest of the eastern North American earthquake .centers. The immediate localities of the gravity anomalies are, however, relatively free...
Geochemistry of the Mattole River in Northern California
Vance C. Kennedy, Ronald L. Malcolm
1977, Open-File Report 78-205
The chemical composition of streams can vary greatly with changing discharge during storm runoff. These chemical changes are related to the pathways of various water parcels from the time they fall as rain until they enter the stream, and to the interactions between water and sediment during transport downstream. In...

Evaluation of ground-water quality in the Santa Maria Valley, California
Jerry L. Hughes
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-128
The quality and quantity of recharge to the Santa Maria Valley groundwater basin from natural sources, point sources, and agriculture were evaluated. The results are expressed in terms of a hydrologic budget, a solute balance, and maps showing the distribution of selected chemical constituents in ground water. Point sources of...

Assessing flood damage to agriculture using color infrared aerial photography
William H. Anderson
1977, Open-File Report 77-175
The rationale for using color-infrared (CIR) film to assist in assessing flood damage to agriculture is demonstrated using examples prepared from photographs acquired of the 1975 flood in the Red River Valley of North Dakota and Minnesota. Information concerning flood inundation boundaries, crop damage, soil erosion, sedimentation, and other similar...

Lithium in the brines of Fish Lake Valley and Columbus Salt Marsh, Nevada
C. L. Smith, Allen L. Meier, H.D. Downey
1977, Open-File Report 77-54
Analyses of waters-from springs in Nevada have led to the identification of an area containing anomalous amounts of lithium northwest of the Clayton Valley-area. Fish Lake Valley and Columbus Salt Marsh contain waters having, relatively high lithium and potassium concentrations. At least a part of these waters is probably derived...
