Temporal changes in sulfate, chloride, and sodium concentrations in four eastern Pennsylvania streams
J. L. Barker
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4074
Trend analyses of 20 years or more of chemical quality and streamflow data for four streams in eastern Pennsylvania indicate that sulfate has decreased significantly in three of the four basins studied, while sodium and chloride have generally increased. The majority of chemical quality changes occurred in the late 1950...

Traveltime and longitudinal dispersion in Illinois streams
Julia B. Graf
1986, Water Supply Paper 2269
Twenty-seven measurements of traveltime and longitudinal dispersion in 10 Illinois streams made from 1975 to 1982 provide data needed for estimating traveltime of peak concentration of a conservative solute, traveltime of the leading edge of a solute cloud, peak concentration resulting from injection of a given quantity of solute, and...
Estimation of recharge rates to the sand and gravel aquifer using environmental tritium, Nantucket Island, Massachusetts
Jayne Fifield Knott, Julio C. Olimpio
1986, Water Supply Paper 2297
Estimation of the average annual rate of ground-water recharge to sand and gravel aquifers using elevated tritium concentrations in ground water is an alternative to traditional steady-state and water-balance recharge-rate methods. The concept of the tritium tracer method is that the average annual rate of ground-water recharge over a period...

Preliminary delineation and description of the regional aquifers of Tennessee: the East Tennessee aquifer system
J. V. Brahana, Dolores Mulderink, J. A. Macy, M. W. Bradley
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4091
The east Tennessee aquifer system occurs in the Valley and Ridge and the Blue Ridge provinces of Tennessee. These areas are underlain by rocks of Precambrian to Pennsylvanian age which have been structurally deformed and faulted during the Appalachian orogeny. Groundwater in the Valley and Ridge occurs primarily in solution...
Maps and interpretation of geochemical anomalies, Chuckwalla Mountains Wilderness Study Area, Riverside County, California
K. C. Watts
1986, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1795
In March 1982, as part of the mineral resource investigations of the area, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Chuckwalla Mountains Wilderness Study Area (WSA), Riverside County, California. The survey involved collecting 196 heavy-mineral (panned) concentrates from stream sediment (the basis for these maps and...
Determination of geohydrologic framework and extent of d- water contamination using surface geophysical techniques at Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey
Pierre Lacombe
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4051
Seismic-refraction, electric-resistivity sounding, and electromagnetic conductivity techniques were used to determine the geohydrologic framework and extent of groundwater contamination at Picatinny Arsenal in northern New Jersey. The area studied encompasses about 4 sq mi at the southern end of the Arsenal. The bedrock surface beneath the glacial sediments was delineated...
