Drainage areas of streams at selected locations in Kentucky
David E. Bower, W. H. Jackson
1981, Open-File Report 81-61
The drainage areas for more than 2,000 selected sites throughout Kentucky were determined. Areas of limestone terrain characterized by sinkholes are indicated in basins where they have been determined. Each location is referenced by U.S. Geological Survey station number (where assigned), latitude, longitude, county code, topographic quadrangle, river distance, and...
Hydrology and chemical quality of ground water in Kiowa County, Colorado
Martha H. Mustard, Doug Cain
1981, Open-File Report 81-1023
Ground water is available in Kiowa County, Colo., in quantities suitable for municipal or irrigation uses from at least two aquifers, the Big Sandy-Rush Creek alluvial aquifer and the Ogallala aquifer. The Dakota Sandstone and the Cheyenne Sandstone Member of the Purgatoire Formation may provide marginally sufficient water for municipal...
Pattern-recognition program modified and applied to southeastern United States seismicity
Meridee Jones-Cecil, Russell L. Wheeler, James W. Dewey
1981, Open-File Report 81-195
The pattern-recognition technique of Bongard and others (1966), Gelfand and others (1976), and Briggs and others (1977) was modified and applied in Southeastern United States to try to detect combinations or interactions of geologic, geophysical, and topographic parameters characteristic of areas with moderate and large earthquakes. The modification involved replacing...
A finite-element model study of the impact of the proposed I-326 crossing on flood stages of the Congaree River near Columbia, South Carolina
J. K. Lee, C. S. Bennett III
1981, Open-File Report 81-1194
A two-dimensional finite element surface water model was used to study the hydraulic impact of the proposed Interstate Route 326 crossing of the Congaree River near Columbia, SC. The finite element model was assessed as a potential operational tool for analyzing complex highway crossings and other modifications of river flood...
Earthquake hazard studies in southeastern Missouri
William Stauder, Robert B. Herrmann, Brian J. Mitchell
1981, Open-File Report 81-888
This report is intended to be a compact review of the current "state of the art" of operating a seismic telemetry network as applied to the New Madrid area, and incidentally, to the Adak, Alaska network because of the author's position as technical director of that network under a joint...
Peak horizontal acceleration and velocity from strong motion records including records from the 1979 Imperial Valley, California, earthquake
William B. Joyner, David M. Boore, Ronald L. Porcella
1981, Open-File Report 81-365
We have taken advantage of the recent increase in strong-motion data at close distances to derive new attenuation relations for peak horizontal acceleration and velocity. Acceleration data from 183 recordings of 24 earthquakes and velocity data from 62 recordings of 10 earthquakes have been used. This new analysis uses a...
Altitude and configuration of the water table in the High Plains aquifer in Kansas, 1980
Marilyn E. Pabst, Lloyd E. Stullken
1981, Open-File Report 81-1004
The High Plains aquifer in Kansas is part of a regional system that extends into Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming.  The aquifer in Kansas underlies an area of 31,000 square miles in the western and south-central part of the State.  This aquifer is a hydraulically...
Floods of March 1978, in the Maumee River basin, northeastern Indiana
Richard Earl Hoggatt
1981, Open-File Report 81-695
Floods in the Maumee River basin in northeastern Indiana in March 1978 resulted in heavy damage in Fort Wayne and surrounding areas. Flood damage in Fort Wayne was estimated by the Mayor to be 11 million dollars. Approximately 15 percent of the city was inundated, and 2,400 of its 190,000...
Fisheries resource evaluation, Cache Creek EIS, Wyoming
Paul B. Holden, James R. Campbell
1981, Open-File Report 81-857
The U.S. Forest Service and U.S. Geological Survey are preparing an Environmental Impact Statement on proposed oil exploration in the Cache Creek area of the Teton National Forest, near Jackson, Wyoming. This fishery study represents a portion of the EIS data gathering effort by the U.S. Forest Service. The objective...
Quality of water in Tibbee Creek and tributaries near West Point, Mississippi
Stephen J. Kalkhoff
1981, Open-File Report 81-406
An intensive water-quality study was conducted on Tibbee Creek and two of its tributaries, Town Creek and Catalpa Creek, on June 19-22, 1979. The data were collected during a period of low discharge and high air temperatures. The water in Tibbee Creek and Catalpa Creek was of much better quality...
A method of estimating flood-frequency parameters for streams in Idaho
L.C. Kjelstrom, R. L. Moffatt
1981, Open-File Report 81-909
Skew coefficients for the log-Pearson type III distribution are generalized on the basis of some similarity of floods in the Snake River basin and other parts of Idaho. Generalized skew coefficients aid in shaping flood-frequency curves because skew coefficients computed from gaging stations having relatively short periods of peak flow...
1980 annual index of current earthquake literature
B.S. Hayashida, Mari L. Kauffmann, William Hung Kan Lee
1981, Open-File Report 81-454
In the past several years earthquake research has been greatly accelerated in China, Japan, the USSR, and the United States. Presently about 3,000 earthquake-related publications (including meeting abstracts) are produced yearly. In order to keep up with this current literature, a computer-based bibliographic system was implemented as part of a...
