Meteorological, water-temperature, and discharge data for the Mattole River basin, Humboldt County, California
R.D. Noble, Alan P. Jackman
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-81
To overcome a major difficulty in the testing of the validity of river-temperature models - the lack of adequate precise synoptic data for an entire river basin - synoptic meteorologic, water-temperature, and discharge data were obtained in the Mattole River Basin in northern California during the period June 10 through...
Habitat Suitability Index Models: Yellow perch
Douglas A. Krieger, James W. Terrell, Patrick C. Nelson
1983, FWS/OBS 82/10.55
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop riverine and lacustrine habitat models for yellow perch (Perca flavescens). The models are scaled to produce an index of habitat suitability between 0 (unsuitable habitat) to 1 (optimally suitable habitat) for riverine, lacustrine, and palustrine habitat in the 48...

Bedrock in the area is shale, siltstone, sandstone, and the McAlester (Stigler) and Hartshorne coals of the McAlester Formation and Hartshorne Sandstone of Pennsylvanian age. The two coal beds,...
Simulations of non-steady flow in a glacial outwash aquifer, southern Franklin County, Ohio
A. C. Razem
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4022
A two-dimensional, finite-difference model is used to simulate transient flow conditions in a glacial outwash aquifer in southern Franklin County, Ohio. The model was calibrated by matching observed and simulated water-level changes for December 1977 through March 1980. Drawdowns for three different hypothetical pumping rates are simulated with the calibrated...
Ground-water resources of coastal Citrus, Hernando, and southwestern Levy counties, Florida
J. D. Fretwell
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4079
Ground water in the coastal parts of Citrus, Hernando, and Levy Counties is obtained almost entirely from the Floridan aquifer. The aquifer is unconfined near the coast and semiconfined in the ridge area. Transmissivity ranges from 20,000 feet squared per day in the ridge area to greater than 2,000,000 feet...
Front-tracking model for convective transport in flowing ground water
S. P. Garabedian, Leonard F. Konikow
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4034
A finite-difference numerical model that simulates the convective transport of water or tracer particles through porous media is described. It can be applied to one- or two-dimensional problems involving either steady-state or transient flow. The model tracks representative water or tracer particles, initially located along specified lines, as they move...
Projected effects of proposed chloride-control projects on shallow ground water– Preliminary results for the Wichita River basin, Texas
Sergio Garza
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4026
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' plan to control the natural chloride pollution in the Wichita River basin includes the construction of Truscott Brine Lake on a tributary of the North Wichita River. In connection with the proposed brine lake, the U.S. Geological Survey was requested to: (1) Define the...
Habitat Suitability Index Models: Northern Gulf of Mexico brown shrimp and white shrimp
Robert Eugene Turner, Michael S. Brody
1983, FWS/OBS 82/10.54
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop estuarine habitat models for brown shrimp (Penaeus aztecus) and white shrimp (Penaeus setiferus). The models are scaled to produce an index of habitat suitability between 0 (unsuitable habitat) to 1 (optimally suitable habitat) for estuarine areas of the northern...
Computer program and data listing for two-dimensional ground-water model for Laramie County, Wyoming
M. A. Crist
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4137
This is a supplement to the report, ' Effect of pumpage on ground-water levels as modeled in Laramie County, Wyoming, ' published as U.S. Geological Survey Water-Resources Investigations Open-File Report 80-1104. The computer program and data used to model ground-water conditions in post-Cretaceous rocks in Laramie County are listed. (USGS)...
Habitat suitability index models: redhead (wintering)
Rebecca J. Howard, Harold A. Kantrud
1983, FWS/OBS 82/10.53
The redhead is a North American waterfowl species with economic as well as ecological importance. It is highly desired by hunters. Retrieved redhead kill in the United States averaged 143,000 birds during the three waterfowl seasons from 1975 to 1977 (U.S. Department of the Interior 1981a, 1981b). Populations on the...
Hydrogeology and simulation of water flow in the Kootenai aquifer of the Judith basin, central Montana
Julianne F. Levings
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4146
Five Jurassic and Cretaceous formations in the Judith basin of central Montana were investigated with a three-dimensional model to improve the understanding of water flow in the Kootenai aquifer. To accomplish this objective, of water flow in the aquifers and two intervening confining layers was constructed from existing data. A...
