An evaluation of suspended sediments and turbidity in Cow Creek, Oregon
D. A. Curtiss
1982, Open-File Report 82-364
During a 6-month period from December 1980 through May 1981, samples were collected from Cow Creek near Azalea, Oreg., and analyzed for suspended sediment, particle-size distribution, and turbidity. Of the estimated suspended-sediment discharge of 4,270 tons for the 1981 water year, 95 percent (4,050 tons) was transported during a major...

1982, Open-File Report 82-322
Cruise AST 81-2 was conducted aboard the R/V ASTERIAS during September 10-18, 1981, in Block Island Sound by the U.S. Geological Survey. It was funded in part by the Connecticut Geological and Natural History Survey. The purpose of the study was to define and map the geology and shallow structure,...
Chemical and physical characteristics of water in estuaries of Texas, October 1976-September 1978
J.C. Fisher
1982, Open-File Report 82-354
The Texas Water Plan (1968) proposes development and utilization of water resources in Texas and includes provision for the use and preservation of water in the estuaries of the State. Management of estuarine waters requires knowledge of the hydrodynamics and of the continuing changes in the chemical and physical characteristics...

Procedures for assessment of cumulative impacts of coal mining on the hydrologic balance
Alan M. Lumb
1982, Open-File Report 82-334
Techniques were developed to assess the probable cumulative impacts of anticipated surface mining upon the hydrology of and area. An activity profile of cumulative drainage area versus river miles downstream from the surface mining site is constructed that shows major water uses, flood prone areas, and stream classifications. From the...
