A composite view of the moraine geochemistry has been created using the available geochemical information, and a framework created for geochemical data synthesis of other similar flow systems. Regionally, fluid chemistry is highly heterogeneous, with large variations in both water type and total dissolved solids content. Locally, upper aquifer units are affected by nitrate and chloride from fertilizer and road salt. Typical upper-aquifer fluid chemistry is dominated by calcium, magnesium, and bicarbonate, a result of calcite and dolomite dissolution. Evidence also suggests that ion exchange and diffusion from tills and bedrock units accounts for some elevated sodium concentrations. Locally, hydraulic “windows” cross connect upper and lower aquifer units, which are typically separated by a clay till. Lower aquifer units are also affected by dedolomitization, mixing with bedrock water, and locally, upward diffusion of solutes from the bedrock aquifers. A map of areas where aquifer units are geochemically similar was constructed to highlight areas with potential hydraulic windows.</span></p>","language":"English, French","doi":"10.1007/s10040-010-0628-7","issn":"14312174","usgsCitation":"Stotler, R., Frape, S., El Mugammar, H., Johnston, C., Judd-Henrey, I., Harvey, F., Drimmie, R., and Jones, J., 2011, Geochemical heterogeneity in a small, stratigraphically complex moraine aquifer system (Ontario, Canada): Interpretation of flow and recharge using multiple geochemical parameters: Hydrogeology Journal, v. 19, no. 1, p. 101-115, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10040-010-0628-7.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"101","endPage":"115","numberOfPages":"15","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":244770,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"19","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-07-07","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a1641e4b0c8380cd550ea","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Stotler, R.L.","contributorId":39596,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Stotler","given":"R.L.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444234,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Frape, S.K.","contributorId":105335,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Frape","given":"S.K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444239,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"El Mugammar, H.T.","contributorId":84191,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"El Mugammar","given":"H.T.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444236,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Johnston, C.","contributorId":92892,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnston","given":"C.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444237,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Judd-Henrey, I.","contributorId":28457,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Judd-Henrey","given":"I.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444233,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Harvey, F.E.","contributorId":46161,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harvey","given":"F.E.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444235,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6},{"text":"Drimmie, R.","contributorId":16679,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Drimmie","given":"R.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444232,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":7},{"text":"Jones, J.P.","contributorId":101093,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Jones","given":"J.P.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":444238,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":8}]}}

MRB2, covers the South Atlantic-Gulf and Tennessee River basins.  MRB3, covers the Great Lakes, Ohio, Upper Mississippi, and Souris-Red-Rainy River basins.  MRB4, covers the Missouri River basins.  MRB5, covers the Lower Mississippi, Arkansas-White-Red, and Texas-Gulf River basins.  MRB7, covers the Pacific Northwest River basins. The digital hydrologic network described here represents surface-water pathways (MRB_E2RF1) and associated catchments (MRB_E2RF1WS). It serves as the fundamental framework to spatially reference and summarize explanatory information supporting nutrient SPARROW models (Brakebill and others, 2011; Wieczorek and LaMotte, 2011). The principal geospatial dataset used to support this regional effort was based on an enhanced version of a 1:500,000 scale digital stream-reach network (ERF1_2) (Nolan et al., 2002). Enhancements included associating over 3,500 water-quality monitoring sites to the reach network, improving physical locations of stream reaches at or near monitoring locations, and generating drainage catchments based on 100m elevation data. A unique number (MRB_ID) identifies each reach as a single unit. This unique number is also shared by the catchment area drained by the reach, thus spatially linking the hydrologically connected streams and the respective drainage area characteristics. In addition, other relevant physical, environmental, and monitoring information can be associated to the common network and accessed using the unique identification number.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/70046785","usgsCitation":"Brakebill, J., and Terziotti, S., 2011, A Digital Hydrologic Network Supporting NAWQA MRB SPARROW Modeling--MRB_E2RF1WS (1.0): General Information, Dataset, https://doi.org/10.3133/70046785.","productDescription":"Dataset","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":274631,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/usgs_thumb.jpg"},{"id":274629,"type":{"id":16,"text":"Metadata"},"url":"https://water.usgs.gov/GIS/metadata/usgswrd/XML/mrb_e2rf1ws.xml"}],"country":"United States","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -128.290499,23.033207 ], [ -128.290499,52.450082 ], [ -64.959844,52.450082 ], [ -64.959844,23.033207 ], [ -128.290499,23.033207 ] ] ] } } ] }","edition":"1.0","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"51dbdf64e4b0f81004b77c9f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Brakebill, J.

A system of levees and pumps were installed in the late 1800s and early 1900s to drain the land for agricultural use. Since then, land surface has subsided more than 7 meters below sea level in some areas as organic soils have been lost to aerobic decomposition. As land surface elevations decrease, costs for levee maintenance and repair increase, as do the risks of flooding. Wetland restoration can be a way to mitigate subsidence by re-creating the environment in which the organic soils developed. A preliminary study of the effect of hydrologic regime on carbon cycling conducted on Twitchell Island during the mid-1990s showed that continuous, shallow flooding allowing for the growth of emergent marsh vegetation re-created a wetland environment where carbon preservation occurred. Under these conditions annual plant biomass carbon inputs were high, and microbial decomposition was reduced. Based on this preliminary study, the U.S. Geological Survey re-established permanently flooded wetlands in fall 1997, with shallow water depths of 25 and 55 centimeters, to investigate the potential to reverse subsidence of delta islands by preserving and accumulating organic substrates over time. Ten years after flooding, elevation gains from organic matter accumulation in areas of emergent marsh vegetation ranged from almost 30 to 60 centimeters, with average annual carbon storage rates approximating 1 kg/m2, while areas without emergent vegetation cover showed no significant change in elevation. Differences in accretion rates within areas of emergent marsh vegetation appeared to result from temporal and spatial variability in hydrologic factors and decomposition rates in the wetlands rather than variability in primary production. Decomposition rates were related to differences in hydrologic conditions, including water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen concentration, and availability of alternate electron acceptors. The study showed that marsh re-establishment with permanent, low energy, shallow flooding can limit oxidation of organic soils, thus, effectively turning subsiding land from atmospheric carbon sources to carbon sinks, and at the same time reducing flood vulnerability.</span></p>","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"River deltas: Types, structures and ecology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":15,"text":"Monograph"},"language":"English","publisher":"Nova Science Publishers","publisherLocation":"New York City, NY","usgsCitation":"Miller, R., and Fujii, R., 2011, Re-establishing marshes can return carbon sink functions to a current carbon source in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta of California, USA, chap. <i>of</i> River deltas: Types, structures and ecology, p. 1-34.","productDescription":"34 p.","startPage":"1","endPage":"34","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":154,"text":"California Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":308618,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Sacramento-San Joaquin River delta","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -122.22828954974031,\n              38.050594319491694\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.1992763879824,\n              38.02322247745954\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.06581584389886,\n              37.99121787309585\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.98602964906627,\n              38.03122144544275\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.70315132193262,\n              37.98321453920093\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.64077302415454,\n              37.95004857076803\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.65382894694523,\n              37.77482161472676\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.48990458301647,\n              37.68418194249246\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.2505459985187,\n              37.646286958808716\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.24909534043141,\n              37.703646260559424\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.27520718601272,\n              37.85041111778014\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.2882631088037,\n              37.98316493870175\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.37530259407546,\n              38.07115364272096\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.38400654260289,\n              38.16816126824645\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.4333289175903,\n              38.24795309829756\n            ],\n            [\n              -121.49135524110478,\n              38.43341488449104\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.03825334022991,\n              38.27073469555026\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.22974020782794,\n              38.07800546676111\n            ],\n            [\n              -122.22828954974031,\n              38.050594319491694\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5606703ae4b058f706e51950","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Schmidt, Paul E.","contributorId":147998,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schmidt","given":"Paul","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":573563,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1}],"authors":[{"text":"Miller, Robin L. romiller@usgs.gov","contributorId":887,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Miller","given":"Robin L.","email":"romiller@usgs.gov","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":573561,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Fujii, Roger rfujii@usgs.gov","contributorId":553,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Fujii","given":"Roger","email":"rfujii@usgs.gov","affiliations":[{"id":595,"text":"U.S. Geological Survey","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":573562,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

We used data collected in 25 to 30 streams along a gradient of urbanization in each of 6 metropolitan areas (MAs) to evaluate the relative importance of 11 physicochemical factors on the condition of algal, macroinvertebrate, and fish assemblages. For each assemblage, biological condition was quantified using 2 separate metrics, nonmetric multidimensional scaling ordination site scores and the ratio of observed/expected taxa, both derived in previous studies. Separate linear regression models with 1 or 2 factors as predictors were developed for each MA and assemblage metric. Model parsimony was evaluated based on Akaike’s Information Criterion for small sample size (AICc) and Akaike weights, and variable importance was estimated by summing the Akaike weights across models containing each stressor variable. Few of the factors were strongly correlated (Pearson |<i>r</i>| &gt; 0.7) within MAs. Physicochemical factors explained 17 to 81% of variance in biological condition. Most (92 of 118) of the most plausible models contained 2 predictors, and generally more variance could be explained by the additive effects of 2 factors than by any single factor alone. None of the factors evaluated was universally important for all MAs or biological assemblages. The relative importance of factors varied for different measures of biological condition, biological assemblages, and MA. Our results suggest that the suite of physicochemical factors affecting urban stream ecosystems varies across broad geographic areas, along gradients of urban intensity, and among basins within single MAs.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"University of Chicago Press","doi":"10.1899/10-131.1","usgsCitation":"Carlisle, D.M., and Bryant, W., 2011, The relative importance of physicochemical factors to stream biological condition in urbanizing basins: Evidence from multimodel inference: Freshwater Science, v. 31, no. 1, p. 154-166, https://doi.org/10.1899/10-131.1.","productDescription":"13 p.","startPage":"154","endPage":"166","ipdsId":"IP-011790","costCenters":[{"id":451,"text":"National Water Quality Assessment Program","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":488743,"rank":0,"type":{"id":41,"text":"Open Access External Repository Page"},"url":"http://www.bioone.org/doi/10.1899/10-131.1","text":"External Repository"},{"id":348633,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"31","issue":"1","publishingServiceCenter":{"id":9,"text":"Reston PSC"},"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5a096bb3e4b09af898c94155","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Carlisle, Daren M. 0000-0002-7367-348X dcarlisle@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7367-348X","contributorId":513,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carlisle","given":"Daren","email":"dcarlisle@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":37277,"text":"WMA - Earth System Processes Division","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":451,"text":"National Water Quality Assessment Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":27111,"text":"National Water Quality Program","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":503,"text":"Office of Water Quality","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":717302,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Bryant, Wade L.

Potential impacts from septic tank leachate on groundwater quality were assessed using the mass ratio of chloride–bromide (Cl/Br), concentrations of selected chemical constituents, and ancillary information (land use, census data, well depth, soil characteristics) for wells in principal aquifers of the United States. Chemical data were evaluated from 1848 domestic wells in 19 aquifers, 121 public-supply wells in 6 aquifers, and associated monitoring wells in four aquifers and their overlying hydrogeologic units. Based on previously reported Cl/Br ratios, statistical comparisons between targeted wells (where Cl/Br ratios range from 400 to 1100 and Cl concentrations range from 20 to 100&nbsp;mg/L) and non-targeted wells indicated that shallow targeted monitoring and domestic wells (&lt;20&nbsp;m depth below land surface) had a significantly (<i>p&nbsp;</i>&lt;&nbsp;0.05) higher median percentage of houses with septic tanks (1990 census data) than non-targeted wells. Higher (<i>p&nbsp;</i>=&nbsp;0.08) median nitrate–N concentration (3.1&nbsp;mg/L) in oxic (dissolved oxygen concentrations &gt;0.5&nbsp;mg/L) shallow groundwater from target domestic wells, relative to non-target wells (1.5&nbsp;mg/L), corresponded to significantly higher potassium, boron, chloride, dissolved organic carbon, and sulfate concentrations, which may also indicate the influence of septic-tank effluent. Impacts on groundwater quality from septic systems were most evident for the Eastern Glacial Deposits aquifer and the Northern High Plains aquifer that were associated with the number of housing units using septic tanks, high permeability of overlying sediments, mostly oxic conditions, and shallow wells. Overall, little or no influence from septic systems were found for water samples from the deeper public-supply wells.</p><p id=\"sp010\">The Cl/Br ratio is a useful first-level screening tool for assessing possible septic tank influence in water from shallow wells (&lt;20&nbsp;m) with the range of 400–1100.

The trophic status of Fort Cobb Reservoir, Oklahoma, was assessed in April, July, and September 2006. The Fort Cobb Reservoir was highly eutrophic, with the greatest concentrations of nutrients and chlorophyll-<i>a</i> being measured in the upper reaches of the reservoir.

Of all the many different types of animals that depend on the river, fish are the most diverse with over 140 different species. The sport fishery is very diverse with at least 25 species commonly harvested. Fish species, such as walleyes, largemouth bass, bluegills, and crappies are favorites of sport anglers. Others such as common carp, buffalos, and channel catfish, are harvested by commercial anglers and end up on the tables of families all over the country. Still other fishes are important because they provide food for sport or commercial species. The fishery resources in these waters contribute millions of dollars to the economy annually. Overall, the estimate impact of anglers and other recreational users exceeds $1.2 billion on the Upper Mississippi River. The fisheries in the various reaches of the river of often are adversely affected by pollution, urbanization, non-native fishes, navigation, recreational boating, fishing, dredging, and siltation. However, state and federal agencies expend considerable effort and resources to manage fisheries and restore river habitats. This pamphlet was prepared to help you better understand what fishery resources exist, what the requirements of each pecies are, and how man-induced changes that are roposed or might occur could affect them.","publisher":"Upper Mississippi River Conservation Committee","collaboration":"Based on the original booklet: Littlejohn, S., L.

Minnesota has its share of floods and flood damages, and the state has awarded nearly $278 million to local units of government for flood mitigation projects through its Flood Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. Since 1995, flood mitigation in the Red River Valley has exceeded $146 million. Considerable local and state funding has been provided to manage and mitigate problems of excess stormwater in urban areas, flooding of farmlands, and flood damages at road crossings. The cumulative costs involved with floods and flood mitigation in Minnesota are not known precisely, but it is safe to conclude that flood mitigation is a costly business. This chapter begins with a description of floods in Minneosta to provide examples and contrasts across the state. Background material is presented to provide a basic understanding of floods and flood processes, predication, and management and mitigation. Methods of analyzing and characterizing floods are presented because they affect how we respond to flooding and can influence relevant practices. The understanding and perceptions of floods and flooding commonly differ among those who work in flood forecasting, flood protection, or water resource mamnagement and citizens and businesses affected by floods. These differences can become magnified following a major flood, pointing to the need for better understanding of flooding as well as common language to describe flood risks and the uncertainty associated with determining such risks. Expectations of accurate and timely flood forecasts and our ability to control floods do not always match reality. Striving for clarity is important in formulating policies that can help avoid recurring flood damages and costs.","largerWorkType":{"id":4,"text":"Book"},"largerWorkTitle":"Water policy in Minnesota--Issues, incentives, and action","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":4,"text":"Other Government Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"RFF Press","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","isbn":"978-1617260865","usgsCitation":"Brooks, K., Fallon, J.D., Lorenz, D., Stark, J., and Menard, J., 2011, Flooding and Flood Management, chap. <i>of</i> Water policy in Minnesota--Issues, incentives, and action, p. 246-264.","productDescription":"p. 246-264","costCenters":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":204382,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Minnesota","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a1181e4b0c8380cd53ffa","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Easter, K.W.","contributorId":113288,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Easter","given":"K.W.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508277,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Perry, Jim","contributorId":111771,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Perry","given":"Jim","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":508276,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2}],"authors":[{"text":"Brooks, K.N.","contributorId":84486,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Brooks","given":"K.N.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":351923,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Fallon, J.

Harvesting of infiltrated stormwater from horizontal wells in sandy aquifer sediments beneath stormwater ponds has emerged as an alternative in need of evaluation. Cyanobacteria may proliferate in stormwater ponds; cyanotoxins produced by these organisms represent potential public health concerns. Results of two, saturated flow, sand column experiments indicate breakthrough of microcystin-LR (MCLR) and cylindrospermopsin (CYL) within 1―2 pore volumes indicating little removal attributable to sorption. Concentration-based MCLR removal efficiencies up to 90% were achieved, which we hypothesize were predominantly due to biodegradation. In contrast, CYL removal efficiencies were generally less than 15%. On the basis of these results, removal of sandy soil in the stormwater pond bottom and addition of sorption media with greater binding affinities to cyanotoxins may enhance natural attenuation processes prior to water withdrawal.</p>","largerWorkTitle":"GQ10: Groundwater quality management in a rapidly changing world","conferenceTitle":"7th International Groundwater Quality Conference","conferenceDate":"June 12-18 2010","conferenceLocation":"Zurich, Switzerland","language":"English","publisher":"International Association of Hydrological Sciences","publisherLocation":"England","isbn":"978-1-907161-16-2","usgsCitation":"O’Reilly, A.M., Wanielista, M.P., Loftin, K.A., and Chang, N., 2011, Laboratory simulated transport of microcystin-LR and cylindrospermopsin in groundwater under the influence of stormwater ponds: implications for harvesting of infiltrated stormwater, <i>in</i> GQ10: Groundwater quality management in a rapidly changing world, v. 342, Zurich, Switzerland, June 12-18 2010, p. 107-111.","productDescription":"5 p.","startPage":"107","endPage":"111","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":307675,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","volume":"342","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"55e18634e4b05561fa206ac5","contributors":{"editors":[{"text":"Schirmer, Mario","contributorId":146654,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schirmer","given":"Mario","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":570603,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Hoehn, Eduard","contributorId":146656,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Hoehn","given":"Eduard","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":570604,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Vogt, Tobias","contributorId":146657,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Vogt","given":"Tobias","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":570605,"contributorType":{"id":2,"text":"Editors"},"rank":3}],"authors":[{"text":"O’Reilly, Andrew M. 0000-0003-3220-1248 aoreilly@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3220-1248","contributorId":2184,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"O’Reilly","given":"Andrew","email":"aoreilly@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"M.","affiliations":[{"id":5051,"text":"FLWSC-Orlando","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":570599,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Wanielista, Martin P.","contributorId":62069,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Wanielista","given":"Martin","email":"","middleInitial":"P.","affiliations":[{"id":12564,"text":"Department of Biology, University of Central Florida","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":570600,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Loftin, Keith A. 0000-0001-5291-876X kloftin@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5291-876X","contributorId":868,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Loftin","given":"Keith","email":"kloftin@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"A.","affiliations":[{"id":353,"text":"Kansas Water Science Center","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":570601,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Chang, Ni-Bin","contributorId":20205,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Chang","given":"Ni-Bin","email":"","affiliations":[{"id":12564,"text":"Department of Biology, University of Central Florida","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":570602,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4}]}}

Using these three data resources for classifying land cover, the hydrologic impact of the land cover change at three points in time over a period of 132+ years is presented in terms of the effect on the area-weighted average curve number, a term commonly used to predict peak runoff from rainstorms. In the four watersheds studied, the area-weighted average curve number associated with the first 30 years of settlement increased from 61·4 to 77·8. State-wide mapped forest area over this same period decreased 19%. Over the next 126 years, the area-weighted average curve number decreased to 76·7, despite an additional forest area reduction of 60%. This suggests that degradation of aquatic resources (plants, fish, invertebrates, and habitat) arising from hydrologic alteration was likely to have been much higher during the 30 years of initial settlement than in the subsequent period of 126 years in which land cover changes resulted primarily from deforestation and urbanization.&nbsp;</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Wiley","doi":"10.1002/eco.162","usgsCitation":"Wehmeyer, L.L., Weirich, F.H., and Cuffney, T.F., 2011, Effect of land cover change on

The research is looking at interannual through millennial-scale variability of bay salinity, sediment accumulation, and dissolved oxygen, temperature, and faunal and floral trends. Current and planned research is expected to result in better restoration strategies by improving our understanding of the linkages between the bay's ecosystem, climate, and land use.</p><p>Chesapeake Bay, the United States' largest and most productive estuary, faces several complex environmental issues, including eutrophication and anoxia in the main channel and tributaries, high turbidity and rates of sedimentation, outbreaks of the toxic dinoflagellate<span>&nbsp;</span><i>Pfiesteria piscicida</i>, and coastal erosion and submergence tied to sea-level rise. Such problems often are attributed to human activities in the bay's watershed, including pollution, urbanization, and deforestation, but it now is recognized that climatic factors also strongly influence bay salinity, temperature, and water quality.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.1029/99EO00178","usgsCitation":"Cronin, T.M., Colman, S., Willard, D.,

We documented acquisition of&nbsp;</span><i>Ixodes scapularis</i><span>&nbsp;Say on birds at Fire Island, NY, by removing ticks from mist-netted birds, and recording the number of ticks on birds recaptured within 4 d of release. Eight bird species acquired at least 0.8 ticks bird</span><sup>−1</sup><span>&nbsp;day</span><sup>−1</sup><span>&nbsp;during the seasonal peak for at least one age class of&nbsp;</span><i>I. scapularis</i><span>. Gray Catbirds, Eastern Towhees, Common Yellowthroats, and Northern Waterthrushes collectively accounted for 83% of all tick acquisitions; and six individuals apportioned among Black-billed Cuckoo, Gray Catbird, Eastern Towhee, and Common Yellowthroat were simultaneously infested with both larvae and nymphs. Bird species with the highest acquisition rates were generally ground foragers, whereas birds that did not acquire ticks in our samples generally foraged above the ground. Tick acquisition by birds did not differ between deciduous and coniferous forests. Among the 15 bird species with the highest recruitment rates, acquisition of nymphs was not correlated with acquisition of larvae. Tick acquisition rates by individual bird species were not correlated with the reservoir competence of those species for Lyme borreliae. However, birds with high tick acquisition rates can contribute large numbers of infected ticks, and thus help maintain the enzootic cycle, even if their levels of reservoir competence are relatively low.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Oxford Academic","doi":"10.1603/ME10086","usgsCitation":"Mitra, S.S., Buckley, P.A., Buckley, F.G., and Ginsberg, H., 2010, Highly variable acquisition rates of Ixodes scapularis (Acari: Ixodidae) by birds on an Atlantic barrier island: Journal of Medical Entomology, v. 47, no. 6, p. 1019-1027, https://doi.org/10.1603/ME10086.","productDescription":"9 p.","startPage":"1019","endPage":"1027","costCenters":[{"id":531,"text":"Patuxent Wildlife Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":475451,"rank":0,"type":{"id":40,"text":"Open Access Publisher Index Page"},"url":"https://doi.org/10.1603/me10086","text":"Publisher Index Page"},{"id":398013,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"New York","otherGeospatial":"Fire Island","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -73.31314086914062,\n              40.61551614707256\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.13667297363281,\n              40.640530464129945\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.0323028564453,\n              40.66918118282895\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.89634704589844,\n              40.72176227543699\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.90596008300781,\n              40.727486422997785\n            ],\n            [\n              -72.99179077148438,\n              40.69677841595902\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.09341430664062,\n              40.66605624777337\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.17855834960938,\n              40.643656594948524\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.20259094238281,\n              40.643656594948524\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.24653625488281,\n              40.63219339951101\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.27949523925781,\n              40.628024476792746\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.31863403320312,\n              40.63115119323159\n            ],\n            [\n              -73.31314086914062,\n              40.61551614707256\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"47","issue":"6","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Mitra, S.

The seasons were defined as winter (January 1-March 31), spring (April 1-June 30), summer (July 1-September 30), and fall (October 1-December 31).\r\n\r\nRegional equations were developed using ordinary least squares regression using statistics from 117 U.S. Geological Survey continuous streamgage stations as dependent variables and basin characteristics as independent variables. Equations for three regions in West Virginia-North, South-Central, and Eastern Panhandle Regions-were determined. Drainage area, average annual precipitation, and longitude of the basin centroid are significant independent variables in one or more of the equations. The average standard error of estimates for the equations ranged from 12.6 to 299 percent.\r\n\r\nProcedures developed to estimate the selected seasonal streamflow statistics in this study are applicable only to rural, unregulated streams within the boundaries of West Virginia that have independent variables within the limits of the stations used to develop the regional equations: drainage area from 16.3 to 1,516 square miles in the North Region, from 2.78 to 1,619 square miles in the South-Central Region, and from 8.83 to 3,041 square miles in the Eastern Panhandle Region; average annual precipitation from 42.3 to 61.4 inches in the South-Central Region and from 39.8 to 52.9 inches in the Eastern Panhandle Region; and longitude of the basin centroid from 79.618 to 82.023 decimal degrees in the North Region.

In cores spanning more than a thousand years, the largest changes in composition occurred within the past approximately 140&nbsp;years. Many elements associated with ore deposits (Ag, As, Bi, Cd, Cu, In, Mo, Pb, S, Sb, Sn, and Te) increase in the lake sediments above depths that correspond to about AD 1870. Sources of these metals from mining districts to the west of the Uinta Mountains are suggested by (1) the absence of mining and smelting of these metals in the Uinta Mountains, and (2) lower concentrations of most of these elements in post-settlement sediments of Hidden Lake than in those of Marshall Lake, which is closer to areas of mining and the densely urbanized part of north-central Utah that is termed the Wasatch Front, and (3) correspondence of Pb isotopic compositions in the sediments with isotopic composition of ores likely to have been smelted in the Wasatch Front. A major source of Cu in lake sediments may have been the Bingham Canyon open-pit mine 110&nbsp;km west of Marshall Lake. Numerous other sources of metals beyond the Wasatch Front are likely, on the basis of the widespread increases of industrial activities in western United States since about AD 1900. In sediment deposited since ca. AD 1945, as estimated using&nbsp;</span><sup>239+240</sup><span>Pu activities, increases in concentrations of Mn, Fe, S, and some other redox-sensitive metals may result partly from diagenesis related to changes in redox. However, our results indicate that these elemental increases are also related to atmospheric inputs on the basis of their large increases that are nearly coincident with abrupt increases in silt-sized, titanium-bearing detrital magnetite. Such magnetite is interpreted as a component of atmospheric dust, because it is absent in catchment bedrock. Enrichment of P in sediments deposited after ca. AD 1950 appears to be caused largely by atmospheric inputs, perhaps from agricultural fertilizer along with magnetite-bearing soil.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s10933-009-9394-8","usgsCitation":"Reynolds, R.L., Mordecai, J.S., Rosenbaum, J.G., Ketterer, M.E., Walsh, M.K., and Moser, K., 2010, Compositional changes in sediments of subalpine lakes, Uinta Mountains (Utah): Evidence for the effects of human activity on atmospheric dust inputs: Journal of Paleolimnology, v. 44, p. 161-175, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10933-009-9394-8.","productDescription":"15 p.","startPage":"161","endPage":"175","costCenters":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":374063,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Utah","otherGeospatial":"Uinta Mountains","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -111.70074462890625,\n              40.168380093142446\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.368896484375,\n              40.168380093142446\n            ],\n            [\n              -109.368896484375,\n              40.863679665481676\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.70074462890625,\n              40.863679665481676\n            ],\n            [\n              -111.70074462890625,\n              40.168380093142446\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"44","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2009-11-27","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Reynolds, Richard L. 0000-0002-4572-2942 rreynolds@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4572-2942","contributorId":139068,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Reynolds","given":"Richard","email":"rreynolds@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":318,"text":"Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":787303,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Mordecai, Jessica S.","contributorId":224206,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Mordecai","given":"Jessica","email":"","middleInitial":"S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":787304,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Rosenbaum, Joseph G. jrosenbaum@usgs.gov","contributorId":1524,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rosenbaum","given":"Joseph","email":"jrosenbaum@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":true,"id":787305,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3},{"text":"Ketterer, Michael E.","contributorId":28479,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Ketterer","given":"Michael","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":787306,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":4},{"text":"Walsh, Megan K.","contributorId":54045,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Walsh","given":"Megan","email":"","middleInitial":"K.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":787307,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":5},{"text":"Moser, Katrina","contributorId":53487,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Moser","given":"Katrina","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":787308,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":6}]}}

Limited aerial surveys indicate that this area supports tens of thousands of king eiders and black scoters during spring migration and the autumn molt. Existing satellite telemetry data were used to assess the temporal patterns of habitat use and spatial distribution of king eiders and black scoters in northeastern Bristol Bay throughout the annual cycle. King eiders used northeastern Bristol Bay during all months of the annual cycle and black scoters used the area during spring through fall. Both species exhibited a similar seasonal pattern of use that corresponded with the timing of life-cycle stages. Abundance of both species was highest during spring migration and the autumn molting period and lowest during summer. Use by king eiders did not occur during all winter months in every year of the study. King eiders were more broadly distributed than black scoters and were located farther from shore in deeper water. Core use areas had minimal overlap, suggesting a degree of spatial segregation between species and a preference for different habitats in northeastern Bristol Bay. Further study of potential variation in invertebrate community structure that may correlate with the observed interspecific spatial segregation in habitat use is needed to determine preferred forage and describe habitat requirements for each species. Such information is necessary to assess the potential impact that future anthropogenic or environmental changes may have on habitat quality of northeastern Bristol Bay and demography of Pacific sea duck populations that use this area.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer","doi":"10.1007/s00227-010-1481-x","usgsCitation":"Schamber, J.L., Flint, P.L., and Powell, A.N., 2010, Patterns of use and distribution of king eiders and black scoters during the annual cycle in northeastern Bristol Bay, Alaska: Marine Biology, v. 157, p. 2169-2176, https://doi.org/10.1007/s00227-010-1481-x.","productDescription":"8 p.","startPage":"2169","endPage":"2176","ipdsId":"IP-020509","costCenters":[{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":465517,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Alaska","otherGeospatial":"Bering Sea, Bristol Bay, Egegik Bay, Kvichak Bay, Nushagak Bay","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -161.98543737174253,\n              58.922937850867356\n            ],\n            [\n              -161.98543737174253,\n              57.10836069028835\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.60187371983994,\n              57.10836069028835\n            ],\n            [\n              -157.60187371983994,\n              58.922937850867356\n            ],\n            [\n              -161.98543737174253,\n              58.922937850867356\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"157","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-06-16","publicationStatus":"PW","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Schamber, Jason L","contributorId":269800,"corporation":false,"usgs":false,"family":"Schamber","given":"Jason","email":"","middleInitial":"L","affiliations":[{"id":7058,"text":"Alaska Department of Fish and Game","active":true,"usgs":false}],"preferred":false,"id":921986,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Flint, Paul L. 0000-0002-8758-6993 pflint@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8758-6993","contributorId":3284,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Flint","given":"Paul","email":"pflint@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"L.","affiliations":[{"id":114,"text":"Alaska Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":117,"text":"Alaska Science Center Biology WTEB","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":921987,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Powell, Abby N. 0000-0002-9783-134X abby_powell@usgs.gov","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9783-134X","contributorId":171426,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Powell","given":"Abby","email":"abby_powell@usgs.gov","middleInitial":"N.","affiliations":[{"id":200,"text":"Coop Res Unit Seattle","active":true,"usgs":true}],"preferred":true,"id":921988,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

Levels are run at gaging stations whenever differences in gage readings are unresolved, stations may have been damaged, or according to a pre-determined frequency. Engineer’s levels, both optical levels and electronic digital levels, are commonly used for gaging-station levels. Collimation tests should be run at least once a week for any week that levels are run, and the absolute value of the collimation error cannot exceed 0.003 foot/100 feet (ft).</p><p>An acceptable set of gaging-station levels consists of a minimum of two foresights, each from a different instrument height, taken on at least two independent reference marks, all reference points, all gages, and the water surface. The initial instrument height is determined from another independent reference mark, known as the origin, or base reference mark. The absolute value of the closure error of a leveling circuit must be less than or equal to 0.003√n ft, where n is the total number of instrument setups, and may not exceed |0.015| ft regardless of the number of instrument setups. Closure error for a leveling circuit is distributed by instrument setup and adjusted elevations are determined. Side shots in a level circuit are assessed by examining the differences between the adjusted first and second elevations for each objective point in the circuit. The absolute value of these differences must be less than or equal to 0.005 ft. Final elevations for objective points are determined by averaging the valid adjusted first and second elevations. If final elevations indicate that the reference gage is off by |0.015| ft or more, it must be reset.</p>","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Section A: Surface-Water Techniques in Book 3: <i>Applications of Hydraulics </i>","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/tm3A19","usgsCitation":"Kenney, T.A., 2010, Levels at gaging stations: U.S. Geological Survey Techniques and Methods 3-A19, 60 p.","productDescription":"Report: viii, 60 p.; Appendixes A-D","numberOfPages":"72","onlineOnly":"Y","additionalOnlineFiles":"Y","costCenters":[{"id":502,"text":"Office of Surface Water","active":true,"usgs":true},{"id":610,"text":"Utah Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":371000,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/tm/tm3A19/tm3A19.pdf","text":"Report","size":"5.74 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"TM 3-A19"},{"id":371004,"rank":6,"type":{"id":3,"text":"Appendix"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/tm/tm3A19/tm3A19_appendixD.xls","size":"24.5 KB","linkFileType":{"id":3,"text":"xlsx"},"linkHelpText":"- Appendix D.

In addition, a record of stream stage is useful in the design of structures that may be affected by stream elevation, as well as for the planning for various uses of flood plains. This report describes equipment and methodology for the observation, sensing, and recording of stage in streams and reservoirs. Although the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) still uses the traditional, basic stilling-well float system as a predominant gaging station, modern electronic stage sensors and water-level recorders are now commonly used. Bubble gages coupled with nonsubmersible pressure transducers eliminate the need for stilling wells. Submersible pressure transducers have become common in use for the measurement of stage in both rivers and lakes. Furthermore, noncontact methods, such as radar, acoustic, and laser methods of sensing water levels, are being developed and tested, and in the case of radar, are commonly used for the measurement of stage. This report describes commonly used gaging-station structures, as well as the design and operation of gaging stations. Almost all of the equipment and instruments described in this report will meet the accuracy standard set by the USGS Office of Surface Water (OSW) for the measurement of stage for most applications, which is ±0.01 foot (ft) or 0.2 percent of the effective stage. Several telemetry systems are used to transmit stage data from the gaging station to the office, although satellite telemetry has become the standard. These telemetry systems provide near real-time stage data, as well as other information that alerts the hydrographer to extreme or abnormal events, and instrument malfunctions.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/tm3A7","usgsCitation":"Sauer, V.B., and Turnipseed, D.P., 2010, Stage measurement at gaging stations: U.S. Geological Survey Techniques and Methods book 3, chap.

The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Maryland Department of the Environment, has extended the area of implementation and added functionality to an existing map-based Web application named StreamStats to provide an improved tool for planning and managing the water resources in the BRAC-affected areas. StreamStats previously was implemented for only a small area surrounding Baltimore, Maryland, and it was extended to cover all BRAC-affected areas.\r\n\r\nStreamStats could provide previously published streamflow statistics, such as the 1-percent probability flood and the 7-day, 10-year low flow, for U.S. Geological Survey data-collection stations and estimates of streamflow statistics for any user-selected point on a stream within the implemented area. The application was modified for this study to also provide summaries of water withdrawals and discharges upstream from any user-selected point on a stream. This new functionality was made possible by creating a Web service that accepts a drainage-basin delineation from StreamStats, overlays it on a spatial layer of water withdrawal and discharge points, extracts the water-use data for the identified points, and sends it back to StreamStats, where it is summarized for the user. The underlying water-use data were extracted from the U.S. Geological Survey's Site-Specific Water-Use Database System (SWUDS) and placed into a Microsoft Access database that was created for this study for easy linkage to the Web service and StreamStats. This linkage of StreamStats with water-use information from SWUDS should enable Maryland regulators and planners to make more informed decisions on the use of water resources in the BRAC area, and the technology should be transferrable to other geographic areas.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Reston, VA","doi":"10.3133/sir20105111","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Maryland Department of the Environment","usgsCitation":"Ries, K.G., III, Horn, M.A., Nardi, M.R., and Tessler, S., 2010, Incorporation of water-use summaries into the StreamStats web application for Maryland: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2010–5111, 18 p.","productDescription":"v, 18 p.","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":41514,"text":"Maryland-Delaware-District of Columbia  Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":370586,"rank":2,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2010/5111/coverthb.jpg"},{"id":370585,"rank":1,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2010/5111/sir20105111.pdf","text":"Report","size":"3.37 MB","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"},"description":"SIR 2010-5111"}],"geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -77.25,38.63333333333333 ], [ -77.25,39.86666666666667 ], [ -75.45,39.86666666666667 ], [ -75.45,38.63333333333333 ], [ -77.25,38.63333333333333 ] ] ] } } ] }","contact":"<p><a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/md-de-dc-water/\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/centers/md-de-dc-water/\">MD-DE-DC Water Science Center</a><br><a href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources/science/streamstats-streamflow-statistics-and-spatial-analysis-tools?qt-science_center_objects=0#qt-science_center_objects\" data-mce-href=\"https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources/science/streamstats-streamflow-statistics-and-spatial-analysis-tools?qt-science_center_objects=0#qt-science_center_objects\">StreamStats</a><br>U.S. Geological Survey<br>5522 Research Park Drive<br>Baltimore, MD 21228</p>","tableOfContents":"<ul><li>Abstract</li><li>Introduction</li><li>StreamStats Implementation for Maryland</li><li>Site-Specific Water-Use Data System (SWUDS) and Available Water-Use Data</li><li>Development of a Linkage Between StreamStats and the Site-Specific Water-Use Data System (SWUDS)</li><li>Obtaining Streamflow Statistics and Water-Use Summaries from the Maryland StreamStats Web Application</li><li>Limitations for Estimates of Streamflow and Water Use for Ungaged Sites</li><li>Summary and Conclusions</li><li>Acknowledgments</li><li>References Cited</li></ul>","publishedDate":"2010-09-28","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2010-09-28","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4acce4b07f02db67e870","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Ries, Kernell G.
