Quantity and quality of urban runoff from the Chester Creek basin Anchorage, Alaska
T. P. Brabets
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4312
Urbanization has affected both the flow characteristics and water quality of streams in the Chester Creek basin, of Anchorage, Alaska. Peak flows are higher in the urban rather than rural parts of the basin, and the percent of effective impervious area has a significant effect on storm runoff volumes and...
Regional ground-water discharge to large streams in the upper coastal plain of South Carolina and parts of North Carolina and Georgia

1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4332
Base flow was computed to estimate discharge from regional aquifers for six large streams in the upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina and parts of North Carolina and Georgia. Aquifers that sustain the base flow of both large and small streams are stratified into shallow and deep flow systems. Base-flow...

1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4353
Annual and summer (May 1 to September 30) low-flow frequency curves are presented for 175 continuous-record streamflow stations in Minnesota. The curves were developed for all stations with 10 or more years of continuous record. The 1-, 7-, and 30-day low-flow discharges at selected recurrence intervals obtained from these curves...

1987, Water Data Report AR-86-1
Water resources data for the 1986 water year for Arkansas consist of records of gage height, discharge, and water quality of streams; water quality of lakes; and water levels and water quality of wells. This report contains discharge records for 48 gaging stations; water quality for 154 stations, 73 partial-record stations, 5 observation...
An assessment of low flows in streams in northeastern Wyoming
G.W. Armentrout, J.F. Wilson
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4246
Low flows were assessed and summarized in the following basins in northeastern Wyoming: Little Bighorn, Tongue, Powder, Little Missouri, Belle Fourche, Cheyenne, and Niobrara River, and about 200 river miles of the North Platte River and its tributaries. Only existing data from streamflow stations and miscellaneous observation sites during the...
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...

Potentiometric surface of the upper Floridan aquifer in Florida and in parts of Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama, May 1985
Peter W. Bush, G. Lynn Barr, John S. Clarke, Richard H. Johnston
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4316
A map, constructed as a part of the Floridan Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA), shows the potentiometric surface of the Upper Floridan aquifer for May 1985. It is based on measurements of water level or artesian pressure made in about 2 ,500 wells during the period May 13 to 24, 1985....
