Chemistry of zeolites and zeolitic tuffs from a Pliocene lacustrine deposit near Durkee, Baker County, Oregon
Richard A. Sheppard, Arthur J. Gude
1980, Open-File Report 80-1260
Zeolites in an unnamed Pliocene lacustrine and fluviatile deposit near Durkee were first mentioned by Eakle (1898). He described a new zeolite, erionite, from a small opal quarry in a "rhyolite" (welded ash-flow tuff) about 6 km southeast of Durkee. Eakle, unfortunately, provided only a vague description of the type...

Finite-difference model to simulate the areal flow of saltwater and fresh water separated by an interface
James W. Mercer, S. P. Larson, Charles R. Faust
1980, Open-File Report 80-407
Model documentation is presented for a two-dimensional (areal) model capable of simulating ground-water flow of salt water and fresh water separated by an interface. The partial differential equations are integrated over the thicknesses of fresh water and salt water resulting in two equations describing the flow characteristics in the areal...
