1981, Open-File Report 81-205
A May 1980 potentiometric surface map of the Northwest Florida Water Management District depicts water levels in wells tapping the Floridan aquifer prior to summer pumpage. Compared to earlier potentiometric maps of the area, there are no significant differences in the 1980 map that are the result of hydrologic conditions....

Quality of water in James Creek, Monroe County, Mississippi
Gene A. Bednar
1981, Open-File Report 81-1181
A short-term quality-of-water study of James Creek near Aberdeen, Mississippi was conducted on November 14-16, 1978, during a period of low streamflow. During the study, the water in the 2.6-mile stream reach was undesirable for many uses. Wastewater inflow immediately upstream of the study area contributed to the dissolved-solids load...

Probable high ground-water levels in Massachusetts
M. H. Frimpter
1981, Open-File Report 80-1205
Water-level records from an observation-well network are analyzed for utility in estimating probable high ground-water levels in three different geohydrologic environments in Massachusetts. Analyses were made of 83 observation wells with between 8 and 37 years of records. Maximum annual water levels occur most frequently in March and April. The...

Low-flow characteristics of streams in the central Wisconsin River basin, Wisconsin
W.A. Gebert
1981, Open-File Report 81-495
This report describes low-flow characteristics of streams in the central Wisconsin River basin where streamflow data have been collected and presents equations for estimating low-flow characteristics at ungaged sites. Included are estimates of low-flow frequency at 34 gaging stations, flow duration at 24 gaging stations, and low-flow frequency characteristics at...

Water-resources investigations of the USGS in Texas, fiscal year 1981
Alicia A. Mitchell, H.D. Buckner
1981, Open-File Report 81-347
Water-resources investigations in Texas consist of the collection of basic records through the hydrologic-data network, interpretive studies, and research projects. The hydrologic records and the results of investigations are published by the Geological Survey or by cooperating agencies. This report describes the water-resources projects and activities of the Geological Survey...
Hydrologic effects of highway-deicing chemicals in Massachusetts; executive summary
L.R. Frost Jr., S.J. Pollock, R.F. Wakelee
1981, Open-File Report 81-210
Methods of estimating annual mean and annual maximum chloride concentrations in streams were developed through multiple and simple linear regression techniques using data collected during the 1972-77 water years. Independent variables are easily obtainable parameters, such as total salt application within a basin, annual precipitation, and drainage basin characteristics. Methods...

Hydrologic data of the Lake Cochituate drainage basin, Framingham-Natick, Massachusetts
Frederick B. Gay
1981, Open-File Report 82-342
Lake Cochituate is about 16 miles due west of Boston, Massachusetts, in the southeastern part of Middlesex County. The drainage basin is 17.7 mi2 at the outlet of Lake Cochituate in Framingham. Principal tributaries to the lake are Beaverdam, Course, Pegan, and Snake Brooks. Beaverdam and Course Brooks flow into...
Water-quality data for the Potomac-Raritan-Magothy aquifer system, Trenton to Pennsville, New Jersey, 1980
Thomas V. Fusillo, Lois M. Voronin
1981, Open-File Report 81-814
Samples for chemical analysis were collected from June to December 1980 from 262 wells tapping the Potomac-Raritan-Magothy aquifer system. The samples were analyzed for common ions, dissolved metals, nutrients, dissolved organic carbon, volatile organic compounds, pH, temperature, and specific conductance. This report contains the results of the analyses, well construction...
Approximate water-level changes in wells in the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers, 1977-81 and 1980-81, and measured compaction, 1973-81, in the Houston-Galveston region, Texas
R.K. Gabrysch, C.E. Ranzau
1981, Open-File Report 81-341
This report consists of: (1) Four maps that present data on water-level changes during 1977-81 and 1980-81 in the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers and (2) one set of graphs that present data on the compaction of subsurface materials for 1973-81. During these periods, ground-water pumping decreased in Galveston County and...
Sidescan-sonar data collected during May 1978 from the southern New England continental shelf
