Simulation of the ground-water flow system and proposed withdrawals in the northern part of Vekol Valley, Arizona
K.J. Hollett, J.R. Marie
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4340
Pursuant to the Ak-Chin Indian Community Water Rights Settlement Act (Public Law 95-328-enacted on July 28, 1978) a study was undertaken to assess the effect of proposed groundwater withdrawal from Federal lands near the reservation. The first area to be evaluated was the northern part of the Vekol Valley. The...
Hydrology of the White Tail Butte area, northern Campbell County, Wyoming
M.E. Lowry, J.G. Rankl
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4117
Quantity of runoff and peak discharge from one small basin in the White Tail Butte area, determined from a calibrated rainfall-runoff model, is less than the quantity computed using results of a regional study. The difference is caused by the extensive beds of exposed, permeable clinker in the area. Potentiometric...
Discharge ratings for control gates at Mississippi River lock and dam 21, Quincy, Illinois
A.J. Heinitz
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4155
The water levels of the navigation pools on the Mississippi River are maintained by the operation of tainter and roller gates at the locks and dams. Discharge ratings for the gates on Lock and Dam 21, at Quincy, Illinois, were developed from current meter discharge measurements made in the forebays...
Oblique map of the northern Sierra Nevada, California, showing location of gold-bearing areas

1987, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1981
More than a third of the gold produced by the United States was mined in California. The bulk of this gold was recovered from the western slope of the northern half of the Sierra Nevada between the Merced River in the south and the Feather River to the north, a...
Effect of grid size on digital simulation of ground-water flow in the southern High Plains of Texas and New Mexico
R. R. Luckey, D.M. Stephens
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4085
Three models of the aquifer in the southern High Plains were compared to determine the effect of grid size on simulated water levels. The first model, calibrated prior to this study, had 10-mi grid spacing. The mean difference between the simulated and measured pre-development water levels in this model was...

Habitat Suitability Index Models: American alligator
John D. Newsom, Ted Joanen, Rebecca J. Howard
1987, FWS/OBS 82/10.136
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop a model for evaluating American alligator habitat quality. The model is applicable in marshes along the northern Gulf of Mexico. It is scaled to produce an index between 0 (unsuitable habitat) and 1.0 (optimal habitat). Habitat suitability index models...
Habitat Suitability Index Models: Black Bear, Upper Great Lakes Region
Lynn L. Rogers, Arthur W. Allen
1987, FWS/OBS 82/10.144
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop a Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) model for the black bear (Ursus americanus). The model consolidates habitat use information into a framework appropriate for field application, and is scaled to produce an index between 0.0 (unsuitable habitat) to 1.0 (optimum...
