Water resources data, Pennsylvania, water year 1986. Volume 1: Delaware River Basin
J.R. Kolva, T.E. White, L.D. Cecil, R.L. Druther
1988, Water Data Report PA-86-1
Water resources data for the 1986 water year for Pennsylvania consist of records of discharge and water quality of streams; contents and elevations of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground-water wells. This report, Volume 1, includes records from the Delaware River basins. Specifically, it contains:...
Tolerances of plants to drought and salinity in the western United States
Farrel Allen Branson, Reuben Fred Miller, Stephen K. Sorenson
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4070
Differing capacities of plant species to tolerate drought and salinity are causative factors for presence of species and communities in various habitats. It is proposed that minimum xylem pressure potentials measured are indicative of drought tolerance and that minimum cell osmotic potentials are indicative of salt tolerance of plant species....
Bottom sediments and nutrients in the tidal Potomac system, Maryland and Virginia
Jerry L. Glenn
1988, Water Supply Paper 2234-F
The characteristics and distributions of near-surface bottom sediments and of nutrients in the sediments provide information on modern sediment and nutrient sources, sedimentation environments, and geochemical reactions in the tidal Potomac system, Maryland and Virginia. This information is fundamental to an improved understanding of sedimentation and eutrophication problems in the...
Leachate migration from an in-situ oil-shale retort near Rock Springs, Wyoming
Kent C. Glover
1988, Water Supply Paper 2322
Hydrogeologic factors influencing leachate movement from an in-situ oil-shale retort near Rock Springs, Wyoming, were investigated through models of ground-water flow and solute transport. Leachate, indicated by the conservative ion thiocyanate, has been observed ? mile downgradient from the retort. The contaminated aquifer is part of the Green River Formation...
International strategic minerals inventory summary report; titanium
R.R. Towner, J.M. Gray, L.M. Porter
1988, Circular 930-G
Ilmenite and rutile are currently the most important titanium-bearing minerals, although anatase may be important in the future. Both ilmenite and rutile occur in hard-rock and placer deposits, but at present all rutile production and about half of the ilmenite production are from placer deposits. Anatase occurs in laterite deposits...
Iodine-129 in the Snake River Plain aquifer at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory, Idaho
L. J. Mann, E.W. Chew, J.S. Morton, R.B. Randolph
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4165
From 1953 to 1983, an estimated 0.01 to 0.136 Ci (curies)/year of iodine-129 were contained in wastewater generated by the ICPP (Idaho Chemical Processing Plant) at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory. The wastewater was directly discharged to the Snake River Plain aquifer through a deep disposal well until February 9,...
A well system to recover usable water from a freshwater-saltwater aquifer in Puerto Rico
Allen L. Zack
1988, Water Supply Paper 2328
Aquifers in coastal areas of Puerto Rico commonly contain limited quantities of freshwater that occur as a thin layer at the surface of the water table. Many wells have been abandoned because well screens were inadvertently placed in saltwater parts of the aquifer. A scavenger/production well couple that can be...
Ground-water resources and simulation of flow in aquifers containing freshwater and seawater, Island County, Washington
D. B. Sapik, Gilbert C. Bortleson, B. W. Drost, M. A. Jones, E. A. Prych
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4182
Aquifers in Island County, Washington, that are intruded by seawater from Puget Sound contain chloride concentrations that exceed 100 mg/L. Chloride concentrations exceeded 100 mg/L in 24 % of the wells that were drilled below sea level and sampled in August 1981, but most of the chloride concentrations did not...
The geochemical evolution of aqueous sodium in the Black Creek Aquifer, Horry and Georgetown counties, South Carolina
Allen L. Zack, Ivan Roberts
1988, Water Supply Paper 2324
The Black Creek aquifer contains dilute seawater near the North Carolina State line, probably the result of incomplete flushing of ancient seawater. Data do not indicate that the dilute seawater has migrated toward areas of fresh ground-water withdrawals. The concentration of chloride in ground-water samples ranges from 5 to 720...
A water-resources appraisal of the Mount Shasta area in northern California, 1985
J. C. Blodgett, K.R. Poeschel, J.L. Thornton
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4239
Present Mount Shasta, California, area hydrologic characteristics were documented to compare future changes due to land use or volcanic activity. Lower flanks of Mount Shasta consist of broad aprons of pyroclastic-flow, debris flow, and fluvial deposits, with incised channels on upper parts of the mountain. Data include glacial areas and...
Tritium migration from a low-level radioactive-waste disposal site near Chicago, Illinois
J.R. Nicholas, R. W. Healy
1988, Water Supply Paper 2333
This paper describes the results of a study to determine the geologic and hydrologic factors that control migration of tritium from a closed, low-level radioactive-waste disposal site. The disposal site, which operated from 1943 to mid1949, contains waste generated by research activities at the world's first nuclear reactors. Tritium has...
