Measurement of discharge using tracers
F. A. Kilpatrick, Ernest D. Cobb
1985, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A16
The development of fluorescent dyes and fluorometers that can measure these dyes at very low concentrations has made dye-dilution methods practical for measuring discharge. These methods are particularly useful for determining discharge under certain flow conditions that are unfavorable for current meter measurements. These include small streams, canals, and pipes...

Water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Kansas; fiscal years 1983 and 1984
L. J. Combs
1985, Open-File Report 85-178
The principal mission of the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, in Kansas is to investigate the occurrence, quantity, quality, distribution, and movement of surface and ground waters throughout the State. Primary activities include the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of hydrologic data, evaluation of water demands, and water-resources research....
Operation of hydrologic data collection stations by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1985
Alberto Condes de la Torre
1985, Open-File Report 85-640
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) operated hydrologic data collection stations during fiscal yr 1985 in response to the needs of all levels of Government for hydrologic information. Surface water discharge was determined at 11,076 stations; stage data on streams, reservoirs, and lakes were recorded at 2,141 stations; and surface water...

Artesian pressures and water quality in Paleozoic aquifers in the Ten Sleep area of the Bighorn Basin, north-central Wyoming
Maurice E. Cooley
1985, Open-File Report 84-621
The major Paleozoic artesian aquifers, the aquifers most favorable for continued development, in the Ten Sleep area of the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming, are the Tensleep Sandstone, the Madison Limestone and Bighorn Dolomite (Madison-Bighorn aquifer), and the Flathead Sandstone. The minor aquifers include the Goose Egg and Park City Formations...
Regression modeling of ground-water flow
R.L. Cooley, R.L. Naff
1985, Open-File Report 85-180
Nonlinear multiple regression methods are developed to model and analyze groundwater flow systems. Complete descriptions of regression methodology as applied to groundwater flow models allow scientists and engineers engaged in flow modeling to apply the methods to a wide range of problems. Organization of the text proceeds from an introduction...

Annual water-resources review, White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, 1984
R. R. Cruz
1985, Open-File Report 85-645
Hydrologic data were collected at White Sands Missile Range in 1984. The total groundwater withdrawal in 1984 was 685,275,000 gallons. The Post Headquarters well field produced 650,821,000 gallons in 1984. Six new wells were drilled at White Sands Missile Range in 1984. Nineteen water samples were collected for major chemical-constituent,...

January 1985 water levels, and data related to water-level changes, western and south-central Kansas
B.J. Dague
1985, Open-File Report 85-423
Hydrologic data related to water level measurements made in approximately 1,350 observation wells in western and south-central Kansas are shown in this report. The measurements were made in mid-winter when pumping was minimal and water levels had recovered, for the most part, form the effects of pumping during the previous...
