Multichannel seismic profiles collected by the Teledyne Exploration Company in 1977 south of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina Multichannel seismic profiles collected by the Teledyne Exploration Company in 1977 south of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina

The U.S. Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.) collected approximately 3,700 km of multichannel-seismic reflection profiles (lines TD-1 – TD-6) south of Cape Hatteras on the continental margin. Those profiles were collected between August 15 and October 30, 1977, under U.S.G.S. contract number 14-08-0001-16209 by the Teledyne Exploration Company. The released data include copies of the original...

Fluoride concentrations in water from four principal coastal plain aquifer systems, South Carolina Fluoride concentrations in water from four principal coastal plain aquifer systems, South Carolina

Ample supplies of ground water are available throughout most of the Coastal Plain of South Carolina, but in many places the fluoride concentrations far exceed (as high as 5.8 mg/L, milligrams per liter) the MCL (maximum concentration limit) established for drinking water by the EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) and SCDHEC (South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental...

Altitude of the water table in the alluvial and other shallow aquifers along the Colorado River near La Grange, Texas, December 1980 Altitude of the water table in the alluvial and other shallow aquifers along the Colorado River near La Grange, Texas, December 1980

The water-table contours on this map were constructed from water-level control derived from an inventory of springs and wells in the area, U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps, and from data presented by Rogers (1967). Because of the available water-level control and the rough terrain throughout the area, the delineation of the water table was limited to 20-foot contour intervals. On...

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 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

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 some contiguous areas (R.V. GYRE, September 18-25, 1980 [GYRE 80-9, leg...

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 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

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 plains. Infrared aerial photography was used to define regions...
