Characterization of colloids found in various groundwater environments in central and southern Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1989)
Colloid concentration and composition were determined and compared for twenty-three groundwater samples collected in central and southern Nevada.
The hydrogeochemistry and aqueous uranium distribution of Petersen Mountain and Red Rock Valley, Washoe County, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1983)
The chemical characteristics of water from Peterson Mountain and Red Rock Valley result from dissolution and reflect the composition of the Sierra Nevada type crystalline rocks. Background and anomalous uranium limits in ...
The dissolution kinetics of fibrous amphibole minerals in water
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1971)
Short term experiments lasting for thirty minutes on dissolution of amosite and crocidolite gave congruent dissolution. The rate of dissolution was found to depend on pH, surface area and stirring rate. The kinetics of ...
Tritium movement in the unsaturated zone, Nevada Test Site
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1978)
Tritum movement in three different geomorphic settings was investigated at the Nevada Test Site. Two hundred soil samples were collected from high fan, mid fan and playa sediments in Yucca and Frenchman Flats.
Numerical simulation of gas flow through unsaturated fractured rock at Yucca Mountain, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1990)
Numerical analysis is used to identify the physical phenomena associated with barometrically driven gas flow through unsaturated fractured rock at Yucca Mountain, Nevada.
A stream sediment geochemical reconnaissance of the Golden Trout Wilderness, California
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1981)
A hydrogeochemical stream sediment reconnaissance has been carried out in the Golden Trout Wilderness in the southern Sierra Nevada, California.
Development of a quasi three-dimensional groundwater model for a portion of the Nevada Test Site
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1978)
An empirical correction matrix has been devised that will partially adjust a two-dimensional model for flow in the third dimension. The correction matrix has been applied to the groundwater system from Pahute Mesa to Yucca ...
Controls on ground water chemistry in central and western Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1982)
Geochemical evolution of waters from the semi-arid western Great Basin and parts of the Sierra Nevada was analyzed using common techniques for computation of ionic speciation, classification, R-mode factor analysis and an ...
Origin and distribution of soil nitrates on the Nevada Test Site
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1982)
Unusually high nitrate concentrations were found in soils of Yucca and Frenchman Flats. A maximum concentration of 11,100 mg/kg was found within the 2-6 inch soil depth on Frenchman playa. Maximum nitrate concentrations ...
Hydrogeologic study of groundwater-surface water interactions at Topaz Lake, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1981)
A hydrologic study was conducted to investigate groundwater-lakewater interactions around Topaz Lake, Nevada, where an alluvial aquifer is hydraulically connected with the off-stream storage reservoir. Basic objectives of ...
