Literature review and need for additional study of surface-water quality in the Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area, Ohio
C.J. Childress
1984, Open-File Report 84-619
The Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area encompasses about 24 miles of the middle reach of the Cuyahoga River and parts of four major tributaries -- Furnace Run, Brandywine Creek, Chippewa Creek, and TInkers Creek. Water quality in this reach does not meet Ohio water-quality standards for dissolved oxygen, fecal bacteria,...
Sediment characteristics of Tennessee streams and reservoirs
Stanley W. Trimble, William P. Carey
1984, Open-File Report 84-749
Measured suspended-sediment data and reservoir sedimentation data have been analyzed to determine sediment yields and transport characteristics of Tennessee streams. Measured suspended-sediment is mostly silt and clay size material even in the sand-bed channels of western Tennessee. Unmeasured load accounts for less than 10 percent of the total sediment load...
Spectral analysis of aeromagnetic profiles for depth estimation principles, software, and practical application
H.S. Sadek, S.M. Rashad, H. R. Blank
1984, Open-File Report 84-849
Fourier spectral analysis in recent years has become a widely utilized tool for the processing and interpretation of potential field data. It is particularly well suited to analysis of aeromagnetic maps and profiles, where coverage commonly is of broad scope and statistical treatment is appropriate. The techniques developed by earlier workers...

Water-Level Measurements for the Coastal Plain Aquifers of South Carolina Prior to Development
Walter R. Aucott, Gary K. Speiran
1984, Open-File Report 84-803
Tabulations of water-level measurements for the Coastal Plain aquifers of South Carolina representing water levels prior to man-made development are presented. Included with the tabulations are local well number, location, land-surface altitude, well depth, screened interval, depth to water, water- level altitude, and date measured. These water-level measurements were used...

Assessment of water resources in lead-zinc mined areas in Cherokee County, Kansas, and adjacent areas
Timothy B. Spruill
1984, Open-File Report 84-439
A study was conducted to evaluate water-resources problems related to abandoned lead and zinc mines in Cherokee County, Kansas, and adjacent areas in Missouri and Oklahoma. Past mining activities have caused changes in the hydrogeology of the area. Lead and zinc mining has caused discontinuities and perforations in the confining...

Movement and fate of solutes in a plume of sewage-contaminated ground water, Cape Cod, Massachusetts: U.S. Geological Survey toxic waste ground-water contamination program
Denis R. LeBlanc, editor(s)
1984, Open-File Report 84-475
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has begun a nationwide program to study the fate of toxic wastes in groundwater. Several sites where groundwater is known to be contaminated are being studied by interdisciplinary teams of geohydrologists, chemists, and microbiologists. The objective of these studies is to obtain a thorough quantitative...

Techniques for estimating flood hydrographs for ungaged urban watersheds
V.A. Stricker, V.B. Sauer
1984, Open-File Report 82-365
The Clark Method, modified slightly was used to develop a synthetic, dimensionless hydrograph which can be used to estimate flood hydrographs for ungaged urban watersheds. Application of the technique results in a typical (average) flood hydrograph for a given peak discharge. Input necessary to apply the technique is an estimate...
