Low-flow study of the Pike River Basin, Racine and Kenosha counties, Wisconsin
Stephen J. Field
1976, Open-File Report 75-653
The low-flow characteristics of the Pike River basin, Racine and Kenosha Counties were studied to determine the feasibility of Public Law 566 watershed-protection practices. Two seepage runs, one in October 1973, and the other in September 1974, showed that most of the low flow is combined treated-sewage and industrial cooling-water...
Climatic and streamflow estimates for northeastern Utah

1976, Open-File Report 75-673
This report shows how information from 44 air-temperature, 59 precipitation, and 86 streamflow sites was converted to a common-time base of 1941-70, and how general relations were developed to extend the converted point values to unsampled sites.Two methods, regression and ratio, were used to convert the data to a common-time...

User's guide to the Radiometric Age Data Bank (RADB)
Robert Eugene Zartman, J. C. Cole, Richard F. Marvin
1976, Open-File Report 76-674
The Radiometric Age Data Bank (RADB) has been established by the U.S. Geological Survey, as a means for collecting and organizing the estimated 100,000 radiometric ages presently published for the United States. RADB has been constructed such that a complete sample description (location, rock type, etc.), literature citation, and extensive...
Tests of the standard (30 hz) NCER FM multiplex telemetry system, augmented by two timing channels and a compensation reference signal, used to record multiplexed seismic network data on magnetic tape
Jerry P. Eaton
1976, Open-File Report 76-374
The application of subtractive compensation to USGS seismic magnetic tape recording and playback systems was examined in a recent USGS Open-file report (1). It was found, for the standard (30 Hz) NCER multiplex system, that subtractive compensation utilizing a 4688 Hz reference signal multiplexed onto each data track was more...

Analog-model analysis of effect of wastewater management on the ground-water reservoir in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, New York: Report I: Proposed and current sewerage
Grant E. Kimmel, Arlen W. Harbaugh
1976, Open-File Report 76-441
By 1995, the water table may fall by as much as 5 metres (16 feet) in east-central Nassau County and as much as 1.8 metres (6 feet) in central Suffolk County as a result of proposed sewerage programs. similar, but generally slightly less, change may occur in the potentiometric head...

Groundwater from Lower Cretaceous rocks in Kansas
Katherine M. Keene, Charles Knight Bayne
1976, Open-File Report 76-776
Sandstones in Lower Cretaceous rocks contain supplies, of water that may be adequate to meet increasing present and future demands for supplemental municipal and domestic use in central and western Kansas. An estimated 70 to 80 million acre-feet (86,000 to 99,000 cubic hectometers) of water containing less than 1,000 milligrams...

1976, Open-File Report 76-890
The U. S. Geological Survey has collected data on Oklahoma's ground-water resources since 1934. Most of these data were collected as part of specific ground-water studies conducted in cooperation with various Federal, State, and local agencies. Although a large amount of ground-water data have been published, they are scattered through a...
Teton Dam flood of June 1976, Rose quadrangle, Idaho
