Appearance and water quality of turbidity plumes created by dredging in Tampa Bay, Florida
Carl R. Goodwin, D.M. Michaelis
1981, Open-File Report 81-541
Turbidity plumes in Tampa Bay, Florida, were monitored during ship-channel dredging operations from February 1977 to August 1978 to document plume appearance and water quality, evaluate plume influence on the characteristics of Tampa Bay water, and provide a basis for transferring the information to other areas having generally similar sediment,...

Tracing ground-water movement by using the stable isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen, upper Penitencia Creek alluvial fan, Santa Clara Valley, California
K. S. Muir, Tyler B. Coplen
1981, Water Supply Paper 2075
Starting in 1965 the Santa Clara Valley Water District began importing about i00,000 acre-feet per year of northern California water. About one-half of this water was used to artificially recharge the Upper Penitencia Creek alluvial fan in Santa Clara Valley. In order to determine the relative amounts of local ground...

Effects of effluents from a coal-fired, electric-generating powerplant on local ground water near Hayden, Colorado
S. R. Ellis, P.G. Mann
1981, Open-File Report 81-1196
Data were collected at the Hayden, Colo., powerplant for about a year during 1978-79 to monitor the effects of effluent and raw-water storage ponds on the local ground water, Sage Creek, and the Yampa River. The concentration of boron in wells downgradient from the effluent ponds indicated that the ponds...
