Water-quality assessment of the Illinois River basin, Arkansas
J. E. Terry, E. E. Morris, Jim C. Petersen, M.E. Darling
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4092
A water-quality assessment was made of Illinois River, Muddy Fork, Spring Creek, and Osage Creek in northwest Arkansas. Data were collected to calibrate and verify steady-state digital, stream, water-quality models. The models were then used to simulate changes in instream diel-minimum dissolved-oxygen resulting from changes in nutrient loading. The city...

Evaluation of environmental factors affecting yields of major dissolved ions of streams in the United States
Norman E. Peters
1984, Water Supply Paper 2228
The seven major dissolved ions in streams-sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, chloride, sulfate, and bicarbonate and their sum dissolved solids from 56 basins in the conterminous United States and Hawaii were correlated with bedrock type, annual precipitation, population density, and average stream temperature of their respective basins through multiple linear-regression equations...
Low-level radioactive-waste burial at the Palos Forest Preserve, Illinois: Geology and hydrology of the glacial drift, as related to the migration of tritium
Julio C. Olimpio
1984, Water Supply Paper 2226
A low-level radioactive-waste burial site is located in Palos Forest Preserve, about 22 kilometers southwest of Chicago, Illinois. Between 1943 and 1949 the site, named Plot M, was filled with radioactive waste from the first Argonne National Laboratory and from the University of Chicago Metallurgical Laboratory. Since 1973, tritium concentration...
Use of the routing procedure to study dye and gas transport in the West Fork Trinity River, Texas
Harvey E. Jobson, R. E. Rathbun
1984, Water Supply Paper 2252
Rhodamine-WT dye, ethylene, and propane were injected at three sites along a 21.6-kilometer reach of the West Fork Trinity River below Fort Worth, Texas. Complete dye concentration versus time curves and peak gas concentrations were measured at three cross sections below each injection. The peak dye concentrations were located and...
Hydrogeologic reconnaissance of the San Miguel River basin, southwestern Colorado
D. J. Ackerman, F. E. Rush
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4133
The San Miguel River Basin encompasses 4,130 square kilometers of which about two-thirds is in the southeastern part of the Paradox Basin. The Paradox Basin is a part of the Colorado Plateaus that is underlain by a thick sequence of evaporite beds of Pennsylvanian age. The rock units that underlie...

1984, Water Data Report AL-83-1
Water resources data for the 1983 water year consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground-water wells. This report contains records for water discharge at 84 gaging stations; stage only at 23...
International strategic minerals inventory summary report; chromium
J.H. DeYoung Jr., M. P. Lee, B. R. Lipin
1984, Circular 930-B
Major world resources of chromium, a strategic mineral commodity, are described in this summary report of information in the International Strategic Minerals Inventory {ISMI}. ISMI is a cooperative data-collection effort of earth-science and mineral-resource agencies in Australia, Canada, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Republic of South Africa, and the...
Runoff, sediment transport, and water quality in a northern Illinois agricultural watershed before urban development, 1979-81
H.E. Allen Jr., J. R. Gray
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4073
A study designed to quantify and evaluate changes in runoff and sediment transport attributable to construction activities during urban development of a watershed required identification of pre-construction hydrologic conditions. Data collected before construction on a 2.81 sq m (7.28 sq km) agricultural watershed (upper Spring Creek) near Rockford, IL, show...

1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4114
Water used for agriculture and stock and municipal supplies in the upper Arkansas River basin is derived mostly from the Arkansas River and its tributaries. The flow regime of the river has been altered by increased reservoir capacities and importation of 69,200 acre-feet per year from the Colorado River drainage...
