Preliminary stage-discharge relations for Tombigbee River at Aliceville lock and dam, near Pickensville, Alabama
G. H. Nelson, C. O. Ming
1983, Open-File Report 83-752
The construction of Aliceville lock and dam and other related channel alterations, completed in 1979, has resulted in changes to the stage-discharge relations in the vicinity. The scarcity of current-meter measurements, coupled with backwater conditions, makes definition of a single stage-discharge relation impossible. However, limit curves can be defined that...
Chemical data and statistical interpretations for rocks and ores from the Ranger uranium mine, Northern Territory, Australia
J. Thomas Nash, David Frishman
1983, Open-File Report 83-239
Analytical results for 61 elements in 370 samples from the Ranger Mine area are reported. Most of the rocks come from drill core in the Ranger No. 1 and Ranger No. 3 deposits, but 20 samples are from unmineralized drill core more than 1 km from ore. Statistical tests show...
Gain-loss study along two streams in the upper Sabine River basin, Texas; August-September 1981
Dennis R. Myers
1983, Open-File Report 83-36
A gain-loss study was made August-September 1981 along the upper Sabine River from Lake Tawakoni to Farm Road 2517 near Carthage and along Lake Fork Creek from Lake Fork Reservoir to its junction (mouth) with the Sabine River. The hydrologic data collected during the gain-loss study indicated that during periods...
A new event detector designed for the Seismic Research Observatories
James N. Murdock, Charles R. Hutt
1983, Open-File Report 83-785
A new short-period event detector has been implemented on the Seismic Research Observatories. For each signal detected, a printed output gives estimates of the time of onset of the signal, direction of the first break, quality of onset, period and maximum amplitude of the signal, and an estimate of the...

Chronology of late Pleistocene and Holocene volcanics, Long Valley and Mono Basin geothermal areas, eastern California
S. H. Wood
1983, Open-File Report 83-747
Hydration-rind ages based on hydration-rind thicknesses of obsidian and an assumed hydration rate of 5 microns /1000 yrs have been determined for the 26 exposed Mono domes and coulees. Hydration-rind thickness data give good estimates of relative age differences between the domes, but determination of absolute ages will depend upon...
Report of reprocessing of reflection seismic profile X-5 Waste Isolation Pilot Plant site, Eddy County, New Mexico
John J. Miller
1983, Open-File Report 83-316
Seismic reflection profile X-5 exhibits a 7,700 ft long anomalous zone of poor quality to nonexistent reflections between shotpoints 100 and 170, compared to the high-quality, flat-lying, coherent reflections on either side. Results from drill holes in the area suggest 'layer cake' geology with no detectable abnormalities such as faults...
Specifications for updating USGS land use and land cover maps
Valerie A. Milazzo
1983, Open-File Report 83-116
To meet the increasing demands for up-to-date land use and land cover information, a primary goal of the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) national land use and land cover mapping program is to provide for periodic updating of maps and data in a timely and uniform manner. The technical specifications for...
Filling of Spirit Lake, Washington, May 18, 1980 to July 31, 1982
William Meyer, Philip J. Carpenter
1983, Open-File Report 82-771
The rockslide/debris avalanche from the north face of Mount St. Helens that precipitated the volcano 's eruption on May 18, 1980 , blocked outflow from Spirit Lake, Washington. There has been no surface outflow since that time. From May 21, 1980, when the first measurement of lake level was made,...
Subsurface storage of freshwater in South Florida; a digital analysis of recoverability
Michael L. Merritt
1983, Open-File Report 83-536
As part of a feasibility study of cyclic freshwater injection, digital models were implemented to analyze the relation of recovery efficiency to various hydrogeologic conditions which could prevail in brackish aquifers and to various management regimes. The analyses implemented an approach in which the control for sensitivity testing was a...
