Investigation of artificial recharge of aquifers in Nebraska
William F. Lichtler, David I. Stannard, Edwin Kouma
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-93
Large withdrawals of ground water for irrigation are causing progressive declines of ground-water levels in some areas of Nebraska. An investigation was conducted to determine the technical feasibility of artificially recharging aquifers through wells and through surface spreading by means of impoundments, pits, and canals. Information gained from a literature...
Water-quality monitoring of three major tributaries to the Chesapeake Bay: Interim data report
David J. Lang, David Grason
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-78
The U.S. Geological Survey is monitoring the water quality of three major tributaries to Chesapeake Bay at their fall lines to obtain estimates of constituent inputs potentially available to the bay. The monitoring sites are: Susquehanna River at Conowingo, Md.; Potomac River at Washington, D.C.; and James River at Cartersville,...

Statistical analyses of surface-water-quality variables in the coal area of southeastern Montana
J. R. Knapton, Rodger F. Ferreira
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-40
Since 1974 a network of water-quality stations has been operated in the coal area of southeastern Montana. This report updates a previous report with 2 years of additional data collection and presents statistics and regression equations for water-quality variables. The most apparent feature of the study is the variability of...
Simulation of water-quality data at selected stream sites in the Missouri River Basin, Montana
J. R. Knapton, M.A. Jacobson
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-76
Modification of sampling programs at some water-quality stations in the Missouri River basin in Montana has eliminated the means by which solute loads have been directly obtained in past years. To compensate for this loss, water-quality and streamflow data were statistically analyzed and solute loads were simulated using computer techniques.Functional...
Distribution of nitrate in the unsaturated zone, Highland-East Highlands area, San Bernardino County, California
John M. Klein, Wesley L. Bradford
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-48
Nitrogen in the unsaturated soil zone in the Highland-East Highlands area of San Bernardino County, Calif., has been suspected as the source of nitrate in water from wells. Plans to recharge the local aquifers with imported surface water would raise the water table and intercept that nitrogen. This study was...

The effect of dissolution of volcanic glass on the water chemistry in a tuffaceous aquifer, Rainier Mesa, Nevada
Art F. White, H.C. Claassen, Larry V. Benson
1980, Water Supply Paper 1535-Q
Geochemistry of ground water associated with the Tertiary tuffs within Rainier Mesa, southern Nevada, was investigated to determine the relative importance of glass dissolution in controlling water chemistry. Water samples were obtained both from interstitial pores in core sections and from free-flowing fractures. Cation com- positions showed that calcium and...

A water-quality monitoring network for Vallecitos Valley, Alameda County, California
C. D. Farrar
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-59
A water-quality monitoring network is proposed to detect the presence of and trace the movement of radioisotopes in the hydrologic system in the vicinity of the Vallecitos Nuclear Center. The source of the radioisotopes is treated industrial wastewater from the Vallecitos Nuclear Center that is discharged into an unnamed tributary...
Effects of urban runoff and wastewater effluent on Wilsons Creek and James River near Springfield, Missouri
Wayne R. Berkas
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-27
Statistical analysis on water-quality parameters from James River upstream and downstream from the confluence of Wilsons Creek shows a significant difference for all parameters except temperature and dissolved silica at the 0.05 probability level. Regression analysis shows correlation for discharge with dissolved sodium, dissolved chloride, and dissolved potassium, and for...
Sulfate reduction in ground water of southeastern Montana
William S. Dockins, G.J. Olson, Gordon A. McFeters, S.C. Turbak, Roger W. Lee
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-9
Ground water in southeastern Montana was investigated to determine if sulfide production was bacterially mediated. Sulfate—reducing bacteria were detected in 25 of 26 ground—water samples in numbers ranging from 2.0 x 101 to greater than 2.4 x 104 bacteria per 100 milliliters. Stable sulfur isotope fractionation studies indicate a biological...
