By: David W. Clark, Cynthia L. Appel, Patrick M. Lambert, and Robert L. Puryear The ground-water resources in the East Shore area of Great Salt Lake, Utah, were studied to better define the ground-water system; to document changes in ground-water levels, quality, and storage;...

A hydrologic investigation of Cache Valley was done to better understand the ground-water system in unconsolidated basin-fill deposits and the interaction between ground water and surface water. Ground-water recharge occurs by infiltration of precipitation and unconsumed irrigation water, seepage from canals and streams, and...

Ground-water resources in the Bountiful area, Utah, were studied to document changes in ground-water conditions and to simulate the effects of increased ground-water withdrawals and changes in recharge. The aquifer system is in basin-fill deposits and is primarily a confined system with unconfined parts...

By: C.B. Burden & Others This is the forty-fourth in a series of annual reports that describe ground-water conditions in Utah. Reports in this series, published cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Division of Water Resources and...

By: Arthur L. Crawford and R. L. Threet The wealth and variety of geologic features to be found in Salt Lake Countyare for an area its size probably unexcelled anywhere in the world.Its layered rocks record events spanning more than a billion years: withinan hour...

By: Andrew Rupke and Taylor Boden This report and accompanying database is a compilation of analytical data that includes lithium concentrations from brine samples collected in Utah. The purpose of this database is to catalog the potential lithium resources in Utah. Published: 2023 Pages:...

By: Miles McCoy-Sulentic, Diane Menuz, and Rebecca Lee Wetlands in the arid Central Basin and Range ecoregion of Utah are scarce but provide important functions such as wildlife habitat, water quality improvement, and recreational and aesthetic values. Field surveys were conducted in 2019 and 2020...

by Andrew Rupke The accompanying database is a compilation of analytical data from carbonate (limestone and dolomite) samples collected in Utah and available at https://ugspub.nr.utah.gov/publications/open_file_reports/ofr-715/ofr-715.zip. A primary purpose of this database is identification of potential high-calcium limestone and high-magnesium dolomite resources in Utah, but data...

This open-file report makes available raw analytical data from laboratory procedures completed to determine the age of rock samples collected during geologic investigations funded or partially supported by the Utah Geological Survey (UGS). The references listed in table 1 generally provide additional information such...

By: Janae Wallace With the continued demand for U.S. derived energy products, research and development for unconventional sources of oil and gas has increased, including research geared towards unlocking the vast oil sand resources of the Uinta Basin. In particular, the Southeastern Uinta Basin...

By: Z. Gu and M. D. Deo This Open-File Report presents the results of compositional simulations of CO2 floods of the Monument Butte Northeast unit and the Glen Bench field. Both fields produce oil from the Tertiary Green River Formation and both are currently...
