1983, Water Data Report LA-83-2
Water resources data for the 1983 water year for Louisiana consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground water. This report, in two volumes, contains records for water discharge at...
Origin and character of loesslike silt in unglaciated south-central Yakutia, Siberia, U.S.S.R.
Troy Lewis Pewe, Andre Journaux
1983, Professional Paper 1262
Loesslike silt mantles upland terraces and low plateaus throughout unglaciated south-central Yakutia but is thickest along the south side of the lower Aldan River valley and the east side of the Lena River valley. The silt is probably loess deposited during glacial advances by winds blowing southward from the Verkhoyansk...
Appraisal of the interconnection between the St Johns River and the surficial aquifer, east-central Duval County, Florida
R. M. Spechler, R. B. Stone Jr.
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4109
The proposed deepening of the navigation channel in the St. Johns River to about 46-48 feet below sea level (45 feet below mean low water) may breach up to 11 feet of limestone unit of the lower part of the surficial aquifer along a 25-mile channel. The limestone supplies water...

Habitat Suitability Index Models: Common shiner
Joan G. Trial, Charles S. Wade, Jon G. Stanley, Patrick C. Nelson
1983, FWS/OBS 82/10.40
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop riverine and lacustrine habitat models for common shiner (Notropis cornutus). The models are scaled to produce an index of habitat suitability between 0 (unsuitable habitat) to 1 (optimally suitable habitat) for the northeastern range of the common shiner in...

Reservoir evaporation in central Colorado
N.E. Spahr, B. C. Ruddy
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4103
Evaporation losses from seven reservoirs operated by the Denver Water Department in central Colorado were determined during various periods from 1974 to 1980. The reservoirs studies were Ralston, Cheesman, Antero, Williams Fork, Elevenmile Canyon, Dillon, and Gross. Energy-budget and mass-transfer methods were used to determine evaporation. Class-A pan data also...

Ground-water contamination at Wurtsmith Air Force Base, Michigan
J. R. Stark, T. R. Cummings, F. R. Twenter
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4002
A sand and gravel aquifer of glacial origin underlies Wurtsmith Air Force Base in northeastern lower Michigan. The aquifer overlies a thick clay layer at an average depth of 65 feet. The water table is about 10 feet below land surface in the western part of the Base and about...

Preliminary results of spectral induced polarization measurements, Wadi Bidah District, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Bruce D. Smith, C. L. Tippens, V. J. Flanigan, Hamdy Sadek
1983, Open-File Report 83-612
Laboratory spectral induced polarization (SIP) measurements on 29 carbonaceous schist samples from the Wadi Bidah district show that most are associated with very long polarization decays or, equivalently, large time constants. In contrast, measurements on two massive sulfide samples indicate shorter polarization decays or smaller time constants. This difference in...

Sketch maps, sections and laboratory analyses of peat resources in deposits of southern and western Maine
Cornelia Clermont Cameron, Michael K. Mullen
1983, Open-File Report 83-18
Peat deposits in southern and western Maine were investigated for their estimated potential as peat resources suitable for energy, horticultural, and agricultural uses. Fifty-six sketch maps illustrate the areal extent, thickness, and amount of commercial-quality peat. The total yield is estimated at 27,736,400 short tons air-dried peat. Ash content is...
