The results of a study of the network of the stream-gaging program in west-central Florida are documented. Selected hydrologic data, including drainage area, period of record, and mean annual flow were compiled for the 57 continuous-record gaging stations which were active in 1985. Additionally, selected hydrologic data for 20 discontinued...
Review of mechanisms, methods, and theory for determining recharge to shallow aquifers in North Dakota
W.F. Horak
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4122
Effective management of ground-water resources requires knowledge of all components of the water budget for the aquifer of interest. Efforts to simulate ground-water flow prior to development and the effects of proposed pumping in several of North Dakota's shallow glacial aquifers have been hindered by the lack of reliable estimates...

Fracture characterization and fracture-permeability estimation at the underground research laboratory in southeastern Manitoba, Canada
Frederick L. Paillet
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4009
Various conventional geophysical well logs were obtained in conjunction with acoustic tube-wave amplitude and experimental heat-pulse flowmeter measurements in two deep boreholes in granitic rocks on the Canadian shield in southeastern Manitoba. The objective of this study is the development of measurement techniques and data processing methods for characterization of...

Relation of salinity and selenium in shallow ground water to hydrologic and geochemical processes, western San Joaquin Valley, California
S. J. Deverel, S.K. Gallanthine
1988, Open-File Report 88-336
Salinity and selenium concentrations in shallow ground water of the western San Joaquin Valley, California, are related to the geomorphology and hydrology of the alluvial fans. The highest salinity and selenium concentrations in shallow ground water occur in alluvium deposited by ephemeral streams and at the margins of the major...
Water resources of Borrego Valley and vicinity, San Diego County, California: Phase 2 - Development of a ground-water flow model
H. T. Mitten, G. C. Lines, Charles Berenbrock, T. J. Durbin
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4199
Because of the imbalance between recharge and pumpage, groundwater levels declined as much as 100 ft in some areas of Borrego Valley, California during drinking 1945-80. As an aid to analyzing the effects of pumping on the groundwater system, a three-dimensional finite-element groundwater flow model was developed. The model was...

Surface-water hydrology of Hay Creek watershed, Montana, and West Branch Antelope Creek watershed, North Dakota
Douglas G. Emerson
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4038
Hydrologric data were used to determine the premining surface-water conditions in two small basins in the Fort Union coal region of Montana and North Dakota. The two streams. Hay Creek and West Branch Antelope Creek, are ephemeral. Most of the volume and peak discharges are due to snowmelt runoff. Little...

The distribution and abundance of phytoplankton in the fresh, tidal Potomac River, Md., was different during 1979-81 from that observed in the 1960's and 1970's. Concentrations of phytoplankton in the 1960's and 1970's reached maximum attainable levels that were limited only by self-shading. A sag in phytoplankton abundance, apparent during...
