Hydrology of Lake Carroll, Hillsborough County, Florida
S.E. Henderson, R.D. Hayes, Y.E. Stoker
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4261
Lakeshore property around Lake Carroll has undergone extensive residential development since 1960. This development increased the lake shoreline, altered surface water flow to and from the lake, and may have affected lake-stage characteristics. Some areas of the lake were dredged to provide fill material for lakefront property. Water-balance analyses for...

1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4337
A literature review of available hydrologic information for the Denver coal region is presented. Where little information is available, data from the U.S. Geological Survey 's WATSTORE data base are summarized. The information is divided into three categories: surface water, surface water quality, and groundwater. Data generally are lacking on...
An example expert system for the interpretation of depositional environments
K. B. Krystinik
1985, Open-File Report 85-30
During 1983 the U.S. EPA requested the U.S. Geological Survey and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to study the geology, water movement, and sediment characteristics of Sugar, Romaine, and Rock Creek basins in Jefferson County, Missouri. The information was needed because the EPA had confirmed the presence of dioxin...
Spirit Lake dam-failure flood routing assessment
D. L. Kresch
1985, Open-File Report 82-770
Potential clear-water floodflows resulting from uncontrolled breaching by Spirit Lake of a debris dam deposited by the May 18 , 1980, eruption of Mount St. Helens, Washington, were evaluated. U.S. Geological Survey dam-break model K-634 was utilized, first to compute clear-water flood hydrographs for various hypothetical breach scenarios, and then...
Annual summary of ground-water conditions in Arizona, Spring 1983 to Spring 1984
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1985, Open-File Report 85-410
A summary map shows various aspects of groundwater availability in Arizona. Potential well production, in increments of 0 to 10 gpm, 10 to 500 gpm, and 50 to 2500 gpm (average 1000 gpm) os the primary emphasis of the map; however, data on changes in water level from spring 1983...
Projected ground-water development, ground-water levels, and stream-aquifer leakage in the South Fork Solomon River Valley between Webster Reservoir and Waconda Lake, north-central Kansas, 1979-2020
Jack Kume, R. J. Lindgren, L.E. Stullken
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4216
A two-dimensional finite difference computer model was used to project changes in the potentiometric surface, saturated thickness, and stream aquifer leakage in an alluvial aquifer resulting from four instances of projected groundwater development. The alluvial aquifer occurs in the South Fork Solomon River valley between Webster Reservoir and Waconda Lake...

Study and interpretation of the chemical characteristics of natural water
John David Hem
1985, Water Supply Paper 2254
The chemical composition of natural water is derived from many different sources of solutes, including gases and aerosols from the atmosphere, weathering and erosion of rocks and soil, solution or precipitation reactions occurring below the land surface, and cultural effects resulting from human activities. Broad interrelationships among these processes and...

Hydrologic data were collected in seven watersheds ranging in area from 0.11 to 4.87 square miles. Principal uses of land include farming in two of the watersheds, farming and forestry in one, farming and unreclaimed surface coal mines in one, reclaimed surface coal mines in two, and an unreclaimed surface...
