Inventory of interbasin transfers of water in the western conterminous United States
H.E. Petsch Jr.
1989, Open-File Report 85-166
Information is presented on the quantity of water transferred from one river basin to another in the western conterminous United States. The information is needed by water system managers and planners to develop water budgets for major river basins, to examine the relative extent of existing interbasin transfers, and to...
Estimating soil matric potential in Owens Valley, California
Stephen K. Sorenson, Reuben F. Miller, Michael R. Welch, David P. Groeneveld, Farrel A. Branson
1989, Water Supply Paper 2370-C
Much of the floor of Owens Valley, California, is covered with alkaline scrub and alkaline meadow plant communities, whose existence is dependent partly on precipitation and partly on water infiltrated into the rooting zone from the shallow water table. The extent to which these plant communities are capable of adapting...
Osmotic potential and projected drought tolerance of four phreatophytic shrub species in Owens Valley, California
Peter D. Dileanis, David P. Groeneveld
1989, Water Supply Paper 2370-D
A substantial quantity of the water used by plant communities growing on the floor of Owens Valley, California, is derived from a shallow unconfined aquifer. Fluctuations in the water table caused by ground-water withdrawal may result in periods when this water supply is not accessible to plants. The capacity of...
Salinity and flow relations and effects of reduced flow in the Chassahowitzka River and Homosassa River estuaries, southwest Florida
D. K. Yobbi, L. A. Knochenmus
1989, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4044
The Chassahowitzka and Homosassa Rivers Florida, are spring-fed streams flowing into the Gulf of Mexico that may be affected by future development of groundwaters. Reduction of streamflow may cause an upstream movement of saltwater in the rivers. Data on flow, tide, and salinity define the physical characteristics of both estuaries....
Water resources data, Washington, water year 1987
E.M. McGavock, W.D. Wiggins, P. R. Boucher, R.L. Blaz, L.L. Reed, M.L. Smith
1989, Water Data Report WA-87-1
The Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with State, local, and other Federal agencies, obtains a large amount of data pertaining to the water resources of Washington each water year. These data, accumulated during many water years, constitute a valuable data base for developing an improved...
Geohydrology of the regional aquifer system, western Snake River plain, southwestern Idaho
G. D. Newton
1989, Open-File Report 88-317
A three dimensional groundwater flow model was developed to simulate steady state and nonsteady-state hydrologic conditions of the regional aquifer system in the western Snake River Plain of Idaho. Water budget analysis showed that groundwater recharge was about 1,400,000 acre-ft in 1980; groundwater pumpage was estimated to be 300,000 acre-ft....
Methods for estimating monthly streamflow characteristics at ungaged sites in western Montana
Charles Parrett, Kenn D. Cartier
1989, Open-File Report 89-40
Three methods were developed for estimating monthly streamflow characteristics for western Montana. The first method, based on multiple-regression equations, relates monthly streamflow characteristics to various basin and climatic variables. Standard errors range from 43 to 107%. The equations are generally not applicable to streams that receive or lose water as...
Cost-effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Kentucky
K.J. Ruhl
1989, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4067
This report documents the results of a study of the cost-effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Kentucky. The total surface-water program includes 97 daily-discharge stations , 12 stage-only stations, and 35 crest-stage stations and is operated on a budget of $950,700. One station used for research lacks adequate source of...
Reconnaissance of water quality of Pueblo Reservoir, Colorado: May through December 1985
Patrick Edelmann
1989, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4118
Pueblo Reservoir is the farthest upstream, main-stream reservoir constructed on the Arkansas River and is located in Pueblo County approximately 6 miles upstream from the city of Pueblo, Colorado. During the 1985 sampling period, the reservoir was stratified, and underflow from the Arkansas River occurred that resulted in stratification with...
Geohydrology and susceptibility of major aquifers to surface contamination in Alabama; area 10
S.S. DeJarnette
1989, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4077
This report delineates and describes the geohydrology and susceptibility of major aquifers to contamination in Area 10--Choctaw, Clarke, and Washington Counties in southwest Alabama. The major aquifers in the study area are the Nanafalia-Clayton, Lisbon, and Pliocene-Miocene aquifers of Tertiary age. The recharge areas for these aquifers generally coincide with...
