Water-quality effects on Baker Lake of recent volcanic activity at Mount Baker, Washington
Gilbert Carl Bortleson, Reed T. Wilson, B. L. Foxworthy
1976, Open-File Report 76-714
Increased volcanic activity on Mount Baker, which began in March 1975, represents the greatest known activity of a Cascade Range volcano since eruptions at Lassen Peak, Calif. during 1914-17. Emissions of dust and increased emanations of steam, other gases, and heat from the Sherman Crater area of the mountain focused...
Buried aquifers in the Brooten-Belgrade and Lake Emily areas, west-central Minnesota--Factors related to developing water for irrigation
R. J. Wolf
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-100
Irrigation has given a substantial boost to the economy in the Brooten-Belgrade and Lake Emily areas of Minnesota. The surficial outwash aquifer is capable of yielding sufficient quantities of water for irrigation over half of its area; the remaining part may be supplied by deep aquifers. Buried glacial outwash and...
Test drilling for ground water in Hudspeth, Culberson, and Presidio Counties in westernmost Texas
Joseph Spencer Gates, Donald Edward White
1976, Open-File Report 76-338
From November 1973 to October 1974, the U.S. Geological Survey drilled four deep test holes to supplement hydrologic and geophysical studies evaluating fresh ground water in the basins of westernmost Texas. For each test, samples of drill cuttings were collect·ed, borehole geophysical logs were run, and water samples were collected...
Water resources of the North Coast Limestone area, Puerto Rico
Ennio V. Giusti, Gordon D. Bennett
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-42
The north-coast limestone area, about 600 square miles, is one of the few sparsely populated parts of Puerto Rico, and is the island 's last large and underdeveloped source of ground water. The area 's limestone aquifers are (from oldest to youngest): the Lares Limestone, the Cibao Formation, the Aguada...
Summary of some current and possible future environmental problems related to geology and hydrology at Memphis, Tennessee
William Scott Parks, Richard W. Lounsbury
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-4
This report summarizes information concerning many aspects of the geology and hydrology at Memphis, Tenn. It also outlines some of the current problems related to the local geology and hydrology or ones that may arise as a result of urbanization and industrialization of the area. The city is in the...
Water-quality study of a reach of the Merced River in Yosemite National Park and vicinity, California, April 1973 through September 1974
Ray J. Hoffman, Alex E. Dong, Gail L. Keeter
1976, Open-File Report 76-326
A 25-mile reach of the Merced River was studied to provide the U.S. National Park Service with water-quality data prior to the operation of a new sewage treatment plant. Water-quality variables investigated were discharge, temperature, major chemical constituents, selected trace metals, specific conductance, suspended sediment, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, pH ,...
Appraisal of water resources in the Hackensack River basin, New Jersey
L.D. Carswell
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-74
The Hackensack River basin, in the northern part of the New Jersey-New York metropolitan area, includes some of the most highly urbanized areas in the United States as well as a largely undeveloped 23.4 square mile area of tidal marsh referred to as the Hackensack Meadows. Bedrock in the Hackensack...
Chemical characteristics of the major thermal springs of Montana
Robert H. Mariner, T. S. Presser, William C. Evans
1976, Open-File Report 76-480
Twenty-one thermal springs in western Montana were sampled for chemical, isotope, and gas compositions. Most of the springs issue dilute to slightly saline sodium-bicarbonate waters of neutral to slightly alkaline pH. A few of the springs issue sodium-mixed anion waters of near neutral pH. Fluoride concentrations are high in most...
Technique for estimating magnitude and frequency of floods in Kentucky
Curtis H. Hannum
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-62
Flood magnitude and frequency relations applicable to unregulated stream in Kentucky are based on flood data at 117 gaging stations in Kentucky and 14 in adjacent states having 10 or more years of record. Equations that related flood magnitude and frequency to contributing drainage area in 16 geographic areas may...
Application of the U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff simulation model to improve flood-frequency estimates on small Tennessee streams
Herman C. Wibben
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-120
The U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff simulation model was used in conjunction with National Weather Service climatological data to improve flood-frequency estimates for 52 small drainage basins in Tennessee. The basins range in size from 0.17 to 64 square miles (0.44 to 166 square kilometers) and are distributed throughout the State....
Water resources data for California, water year 1975; Volume 3: Southern Central Valley Basins and The Great Basin from Walker River to Truckee River
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1976, Water Data Report CA-75-3
Water-resources data for the 1975 water year for California consist of records of streamflow and contents of reservoirs at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites; records of water quality including the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of surface and ground water; and records of water levels in selected observation...
