Water-level changes in wells along the west side of the Cedar Creek anticline, southeastern Montana
D.L. Coffin, T.E. Reed, S.D. Ayers
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-93
Water levels have been measured periodically in wells along the west side of the Cedar Creek anticline in southeastern Montana since 1962-64. The measurements show the response of the Fox Hills-Hell Creek aquifer of Late Cretaceous age to withdrawals for domestic, stock, and industrial uses. Water levels were as much...
Water quality of selected streams in the coal area of southeastern Montana
J. R. Knapton, P. W. McKinley
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-80
This report summarizes and evaluates water-quality data collected at 35 stream sites the the coal region of southeastern Montana. Sarpy Creek, Armells Creek, and Rosebud Creek sometimes have dissolved-solids concentrations that cause water to be marginal for agricultural purposes. At times of rainfall and snowmelt, the runoff water mixes with...
Availability of ground water in the lower Merrimack River basin southern New Hampshire
J. E. Cotton
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-69
This map, scale 1:125,000, is a preliminary assessment of the availability of ground water in the lower Merrimack River basin in southern New Hampshire. It is a generalization of several hydrogeologic factors and provides a guideline for ground-water exploration, which is useful in water- and land-use planning. It does not...
Simulation studies of flow and sediment transport using a mathematical model, Atchafalaya River Basin, Louisiana

1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-14
Simulation studies were made of flow and sediment transport for the Atchafalaya River basin, Louisiana using a mathematical model calibrated and supplied by the Hydrologic Engineering Center and the New Orleans District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The study results are based on three, 50-year computer simulations for the following...
Availability of ground water in the Piscataqua and other coastal river basins southeastern New Hampshire
J. E. Cotton
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-70
This map (scale 1:125,000) is a preliminary assessment of the availability of ground water in the Piscataqua and coastal river basins in New Hampshire. It is a generalization of several hydrogeologic factors and provides a guide for ground-water exploration, which is useful in water- and land-use planning. The best aquifers...
Digital model analysis of the principal artesian aquifer, Savannah, Georgia area
H. B. Counts, R.E. Krause
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-133
A digital model of the principal artesian aquifer has been developed for the Savannah, Georgia, area. The model simulates the response of the aquifer system to various hydrologic stresses. Model results of the water levels and water-level changes are shown on maps. Computations may be extended in time, indicating changes...
Computation of records of streamflow at control structures
Dannie L. Collins
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-8
Traditional methods of computing streamflow records on large, low-gradient streams require a continuous record of water-surface slope over a natural channel reach. This slope must be of sufficient magnitude to be accuratly measured with available stage measuring devices. On highly regulated streams, this slope approaches zero during periods of low...
Low-flow characteristics of Minnesota streams
K.L. Lindskov
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-48
Low-flow frequency data for 161 continuous-record gaging stations having eight or more complete years of record are presented for 1-, 7-, 14-, 30-, 60-, 90-, 120-, 183-, and 365-day low flows for frequencies ranging from once in 2 years to once in 100 years. In addition, 8,146 low-flow measurements at...

Water resources data for West Virginia, water year 1975
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1977, Water Data Report WV-75-1
Water resources data for the 1975 water year for West Virginia consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams and springs; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels in wells. This report contains discharge records for 131 gaging stations; stage only records for 1...

Distribution of injected wastewater in the saline-lava aquifer, Wailuku-Kahului wastewater treatment facility, Kahului, Maui, Hawaii
W.L. Burnham, Steven P. Larson, Hilton H. Cooper
1977, Open-File Report 77-469
Field studies and digital modeling of a lava rock aquifer system near Kahului, Maui, Hawaii, were employed to define and describe the distribution of planned injected wastewater from a secondary treatment facility. The lava rock aquifer contains water that is almost as saline as seawater. The saline water is below...

Movement of moisture in the unsaturated zone in a loess-mantled area, southwestern Kansas
Robert C. Prill
1977, Professional Paper 1021
A study of moisture movement associated with ponding near Garden City, Kansas, indicates that loess-manted areas have excellent potential for artificial recharge by water spreading. Infiltration stabilized at rates ranging from 0.7 to 2.2 feet (0.2 to 0.7 meter) per day reflecting changes in hydraulic conductivity of soil horizons. Results...

Sediments collected for bridge foundation studies at southern San Francisco Bay, Calif., record estuaries that formed during Sangamon (100,000 years ago) and post-Wisconsin (less than 10,000 years ago) high stands of sea level. The estuarine deposits of Sangamon and post-Wisconsin ages are separated by alluvial and eolian deposits and by...
