Barren area evapotranspiration estimates generated from energy budget measurements in the Gila River valley of Arizona
O.E. Leppanen
1980, Open-File Report 80-1003
Estimates of evapotranspiration for 479 successive days were created by using energy budget measurements. The measurement point was on the 2-kilometer wide flood plain of the Gila River in east-central Arizona, about 18 kilometers above Coolidge Dam. The flood plain had been cleared of all tall vegetation for distances of...
Supplemental data from the Ennis and other thermal-springs areas, Southwestern Montana, 1978-80
Robert B. Leonard, Wayne A. Wood
1980, Open-File Report 80-1182
Hydrogeologic data were collected principally during 1978-80 in eight hot-spring areas, in the Marysville geothermal test well, in the Butte Mine and in the Bitterroot and Missoula River valleys to provide a basis for evaluating the geothermal potential of the areas. Measurements are tabulated for subsurface temperatures, water levels, rates...
Geothermal resources in the Banbury Hot Springs area, Twin Falls County, Idaho
R.E. Lewis, H.W. Young
1980, Open-File Report 80-563
Thermal water (30.0 to 72.0 degrees Celsius) is produced from 26 wells and 2 springs in the vicinity of Banbury Hot Springs near Buhl, Idaho. Thermal water is used for space heating of private residences, catfish and tropical fish production, greenhouse operation, swimming pools, and therapeutic baths. In 1979, 10...
Potentiometric surface of the Floridan Aquifer, Southwest Florida Water Management District, September 1980
D. K. Yobbi, W. M. Woodham, George R. Schiner
1980, Open-File Report 80-1280
A September 1980 potentiometric-surface map of the Southwest Florida Water Management District depicts the annual high water-level period. Potentiometric levels rose 1 to 31 feet between May 1980 and September 1980 in the citrus and farming sections of southern Hillsborough, northern Hardee, southwestern Polk, northwestern DeSoto, and Manatee Counties. Water...
Simulated effects of ground-water development on potentiometric surface of the Floridan Aquifer, west-central Florida
William Edward Wilson, James M. Gerhart
1980, Open-File Report 79-1271
A digital model of two-dimensional ground-water flow was used to predict changes in the potentiometric surface of the Floridan aquifer, 1976-2000, in a 5,938-square-mile area of west-central Florida. In 1975, ground water withdrawn from the Floridan aquifer for irrigation, phosphate mines, other industries, and municipal supplies averaged about 649 million...

1980, Open-File Report 80-560
Station listings, basin and flow characteristics tables, and annual maximum discharges are presented for stations in West Virginia, Maryland, and Virginia that were used to develop flood-frequency relations for West Virginia. Also presented are figures showing approximate station location and areal coverage for both longterm and short-term stations that were...

Iowa observation well network; past, present, and future
John D. Logel
1980, Open-File Report 80-755
Water-level measurements in wells were started by the USGS in Iowa in 1935. Since then a total of about 450 different wells have been measured. The present network consists of about 70 wells. The measurement of these water levels aids in evaluating the present and future water resources of the State. Many...

Selected chemical quality characteristics in streams of Kentucky, 1970-1975
J.F. Santos
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-21
Generalized maps of average dissolved solids, hardness and nitrate concentrations of water in streams throughout Kentucky were prepared from data collected at more than 100 sites from 1970 to 1975. Average dissolved solids concentrations seldom exceed 250 milligrams per liter. Hardness, mostly of calcium magnesium origin, generally ranges from 60...
Model evaluation of the hydrogeology of the Morris Bridge well field and vicinity in West-Central Florida
Paul D. Ryder, Dale M. Johnson, James M. Gerhart
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-29
The Morris Bridge well field in west-central Florida, which is being developed may have a maximum well-field withdrawal of 40 million gallons per day. The water will be pumped from the Floridan aquifer--a sequence of carbonate rocks about 1,100 feet thick underlying surficial sand and clay deposits. A highly fractured...

1980, Open-File Report 80-567
In late 1980, approximately 4 million gallons per day of highly treated wastewater will be used to recharge the groundwater reservoir in central Nassau County through a system of 10 recharge basins and 5 shallow injection wells. To evaluate the impact of large-scale recharge with reclaimed water on groundwater quality,...

Land-surface subsidence in the Texas coastal region
Karl W. Ratzlaff
1980, Open-File Report 80-969
Land-surface subsidence has been mapped in the Houston-Galveston area and is known to have occurred in other areas within the Texas coastal region. Most of the subsidence has been caused by both the withdrawal of ground water and by the production of oil, gas, and associated ground water. Land-surface subsidence was...
