Frederick Stumm, Anthony Chu, Richard J. Reynolds
2001, Water-Resources Investigations Report 2000-4033
Inspection of the Goose Creek Bridge in southeastern Nassau County in April 1998 by the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) indicated a separation of bridge piers from the road bed as a result of pier instability due to apparent seabed scouring by tidal currents.

Use of InSAR to identify land-surface displacements caused by aquifer-system compaction in the Paso Robles area, San Luis Obispo County, California, March to August 1997
David W. Valentine, Jill N. Densmore, Devin L. Galloway, Falk Amelung
2001, Open-File Report 2000-447
The population in San Luis Obispo County has grown steadily during the 1990s, and some land use has been converted from dry farming to grazing to irrigated vineyards and urban areas. Because insufficient surface-water supplies are available to meet the growing demand, ground-water pumpage has increased and the resulting water-level...

Integration of a numerical model and remotely sensed data to study urban/rural land surface climate processes
Limin Yang
2000, Computers & Geosciences (26) 451-468
Simulation of urban/rural land surface climate processes using boundary layer climate models requires accurate input data with regard to surface thermal and radiative properties. The research reported here resulted in development of a procedure to integrate the satellite-derived surface biophysical parameters with a boundary layer climate model for simulating spatial...
Borehole-wall imaging with acoustic and optical televiewers for fractured-bedrock aquifer investigations
John H. Williams, Carole D. Johnson
2000, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the seventh international symposium on borehole geophysics for minerals, geotechnical, and groundwater applications
Imaging with acoustic and optical televiewers results in continuous and oriented 360 degree views of the borehole wall from which the character and orientation of lithologic and structural features can be defined for fractured-bedrock aquifer investigations. Fractures are more clearly defined under a wider range of conditions on acoustic images...

Effects of food limitation and emigration on self-thinning in experimental minnow cohorts
J. B. Dunham, B. R. Dickerson, E. Beever, R. D. Duncan, G.L. Vinyard
2000, Journal of Animal Ecology (69) 927-934
1. The theory of food-regulated self-thinning (FST) for mobile animals predicts population density (N) to be an inverse function of mean body mass (W) scaled to an exponent (b), such that N = k W−b, where k is a constant. FST also predicts energy requirements (or energy flow) to remain constant over time (termed energetic...
