Landsat 3 return beam vidicon response artifacts
EROS Data Center, B. Clark
1981, Open-File Report 82-803
The return beam vidicon (RBV) sensing systems employed aboard Landsats 1, 2, and 3 have all been similar in that they have utilized vidicon tube cameras. These are not mirror-sweep scanning devices such as the multispectral scanner (MSS) sensors that have also been carried aboard the Landsat satellites. The vidicons...
Progress report on the effects of surface mining on the surface-water hydrology of selected basins in the Fort Union coal region, North Dakota and Montana
Douglas G. Emerson
1981, Open-File Report 81-678
The purpose of the investigation is to provide a means to assess the impacts on surface-water hydrology due to changes in land use resulting from surface mining of coal in the Fort Union Coal Region, North Dakota and Montana. The objectives of the study are to: (1) Determine premining hydrologic...
Sketch maps showing areal extent, thickness, and amount of commercial-quality peat in deposits in and near Piscataquis and Somerset counties and northeastern Aroostook County, Maine
Cornelia Clermont Cameron, Michael K. Mullen
1981, Open-File Report 81-1320
Peat deposits in and near Piscataquis and Somerset Counties and northeastern Aroostook County, Maine, were investigated for their estimated potential as peat resources suitable for energy, horticultural, and agricultural uses. Fifty sketch maps illustrate the areal extent, thickness, and amount of commercial-quality peat. The total yield is estimated at 23,908,000...
Identification codes for organizations listed in computerized data systems of the U.S. Geological Survey
Melvin D. Edwards, Beverly M. Myers
1981, Open-File Report 81-904
This report contains codes for the identification of public and private organizations listed in computerized data systems. These codes are used by the U.S. Geological Survey 's National Water Data Exchange (NAWDEX), National Water Data Storage and Retrieval System (WATSTORE), National Cartographic Information Center (NCIC), and Office of Water Data...
Mid-range sidescan-sonar images covering parts of proposed tracts for OCS lease sale 56 and contiguous areas, Manteo, Cape Fear, and adjacent quadrangles off North Carolina
Peter Popenoe, K. V. Cashman, Dale Chayes, William B. F. Ryan
1981, Open-File Report 81-554
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory (LDGO), collected 335 km of mid-range sidescan-sonar data in some of the tracts proposed for inclusion in Federal OCS (Outer Continental Shelf) Oil and Gas Lease Sale 56 and in...
State-discharge relations at dams on the Illinois and Des Plaines rivers in Illinois
Dean M. Mades
1981, Open-File Report 81-1009
Stage-discharge relations were developed for the Brandon Road Dam on the Des Plaines River and the Dresden Island, Marseilles, Starved Rock, Peoria, and La Grange Dams on the Illinois River. A t Brandon Road Dam, streamflow is regulated by the operation of tainter gates and headgates. Tainter gates are operated...
Time of travel of solutes in the Vermilion River, Louisiana
Anthony J. Calandro
1981, Open-File Report 81-1065
Dye-tracer studies were made in November 1978 and in June 1979 to define streamflow patterns in the Vermilion River. For the November 1978 study the tracer was injected at two locations, Surrey Street in Lafayette and about 7 miles downstream at State Highway 3073; the discharge at Surrey Street at...
Real time monitoring of radon as an earthquake precursor in Iceland
Wallace S. Broecker, J.C. Goddard, Egill Hauksson
1981, Open-File Report 81-877
We report radon data collected during 1980 from geothermal wells in Iceland. Discrete radon samples are being collected weekly from nine stations in the Southern Iceland Seismic Zone (SISZ) and two stations in the Northern Iceland-Tjornes Fracture Zone (TFZ) to determine the potential for earthquake prediction. We also monitor volume...
Preliminary appraisal of the hydrology of the Blocker area, Pittsburg County, Oklahoma
Melvin V. Marcher, D. L. Bergman, J.D. Stoner, S. P. Blumer
1981, Open-File Report 81-1187
Bedrock in the Blocker area of southeastern Oklahoma consists principally of shale, siltstone, and sandstone of the Boggy and Savanna Formations of Pennsylvanian age. These rocks have been folded to form the Panther Mountain syncline on the south and the Kinta anticline on the north. Alluvium along streams is less...
Observations from moored current meters in San Francisco Bay, 1978
Jeffrey W. Gartner, Ralph T. Cheng
1981, Open-File Report 82-153
Current-meter data collected at eight stations in the San Francisco Bay estuarine system between August 1978 and December 1978 are compiled in this report. The measurements include current speed and direction, and water temperature and salinity (computed from conductivity and temperature). Data are presented in graphical format with each parameter...
Ground-water levels in Arkansas, spring 1981
Joe Edds
1981, Open-File Report 81-1114
This report contains records of water-level measurements from wells in Arkansas that comprise the statewide observation-well network maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Arkansas Geological Commission. The observation-well network is designed to provide data for evaluation of the regional trend of water-level changes in each of...
Geohydrology of the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer, east-central Oklahoma
Joseph J. D’Lugosz, Roger G. McClaflin, Melvin V. Marcher
1981, Open-File Report 81-62
The Vamoosa-Ada aquifer, which underlies an area of about 2,320 square miles, consists principally of the Vamoosa Formation and the overlying Ada Group of Pennsylvanian age. Rocks comprising the aquifer were deposited in a near-shore environment ranging from marine on the west to nonmarine to the east. Because of changes...
