Ages of flow units in the far eastern lunar maria based on crater density
Joseph M. Boyce
1978, Open-File Report 78-879
The distribution of major geologic units of uniform relative age exposed in the far eastern maria (i.e., Mare Marginis, Mare Smythii, and Mare Crisium) and Mare Humorum was compiled in map form on the basis of a crater density mapping technique. Correlation of crater densities and radiometric ages of Apollo...
Quantitative hydrogeology of the Upper Republican Natural Resources District, southwest Nebraska
Eric G. Lappala
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-38
Ground-water use for irrigation from the Ogallala Formation }'as in-creased rapidly in the Upper Republican Natural Resources District in southwest Nebraska. Water levels declined as much as 16 feet between 1952 and 1975. Discharge of the aquifer to streams was reduced by as much as 19 percent between 1967 and...

Guidelines for the use of structural versus regression analysis in geomorphic studies
W. R. Osterkamp, Jesse M. McNellis, Paul Robert Jordan
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-135
Simple-regression and structural analysis are similar methods of developing a linear relation from a bivariant group of data. Regression analysis is a useful curve-fitting technique, but often is misapplied to geomorphic data sets. When error components can be identified for both variables, the statistical technique of structural analysis is preferred....

James L. Chisholm, Sanford C. Downs
1978, Water Supply Paper 2055
During and after construction of Appalachian Corridor G, a divided, four-lane highway, five benthic invertebrate samples were collected at each of four sites on Turtle Creek, and, for comparative purposes, three samples were collected at each of two sites on Lick Creek, an adjacent undisturbed stream. Diversity index, generic count,...

Flood profiles for Cypress Creek, west-central Florida
W. R. Murphy Jr.
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-8
Flood profiles are included for selected recurrence-interval floods in west-central Florida for a 27-mile reach of Cypress Creek, for a 4-mile tributary reach, and for a 1.2-mile distributary reach. The procedure for constructing flood profiles is based on flood heights computed in a step-backwater analysis using the following data: 2-,...
Flood profiles for Peace River, south-central Florida
W. R. Murphy Jr., K.M. Hammett, C. V. Reeter
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-57
This report presents flood heights and profiles for a 70-mile reach of Peace River from Bartow to Arcadia, Fla. The flood heights were calculated using the U.S. Geological Survey step-backwater model. Profiles were prepared for floods having expected recurrence intervals of 2, 2.33, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, and...
Computer model of two-dimensional solute transport and dispersion in ground water
Leonard F. Konikow, J.D. Bredehoeft
1978, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 07-C2
This report presents a model that simulates solute transport in flowing ground water. The model is both general and flexible in that it can be applied to a wide range of problem types. It is applicable to one- or two-dimensional problems involving steady-state or transient flow. The model computes changes...

1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-13
A method for estimating temperatures of streams in the Green River basin, Wyoming, utilizes a regional model for estimating mean daily temperatures of streams at unmeasured sites. The regional model was developed by describing annual temperature patterns at 43 measured sites and by applying the harmonic function T = M...

Water-quality indices for specific water uses
J.D. Stoner
1978, Circular 770
Water-quality indices were developed to assess waters for two specific uses--public water supply and irrigation. The assessment for a spcific water use is based on the availability f (of (1) a set of limits for each water quality property selected, (2) a rationale for selection, and (3) information that permits...
Appraisal of shallow ground-water resources and management alternatives in the Upper Peace and Eastern Alafia River Basins, Florida
C. B. Hutchinson
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-124
In southwest Florida, the shallow aquifer system underlying the 1,250-square-mile upper Peace and eastern Alafia River basins is a relatively untapped source of supply. The aquifer system ranges between 50 and 300 feet thick and is composed of a surficial sand unit underlain by a limestone unit. Sand and clay...
