Subsurface injection of liquid waste with emphasis on injection practices in Florida
John J. Hickey, John Vecchioli
1986, Water Supply Paper 2281
Subsurface injection of liquid waste is used as a disposal method in many parts of the country. It is used particularly when other methods for managing liquid waste are either not possible or too costly. Interest in subsurface injection as a waste-disposal method stems partly from recognition that surface disposal...

Bibliographies and location maps of aeromagnetic and aeroradiometric publications for the states west of approximately 104 degrees longitude (exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii)
Patricia L. Hill
1986, Open-File Report 86-525-A
Bibliographies and location maps of selected publications containing aeromagnetic and/or aeroradiometric data have been compiled for each state. These state indexes have been grouped together to form seven open-file reports: four for the conterminous United States (see index map below), one for Alaska and Hawaii, one for Puerto Rico and...
Evapotranspiration estimates using remote-sensing data, Parker and Palo Verde Valleys, Arizona and California
L.H. Raymond, K.V. Rezin
1986, Open-File Report 86-67
In 1981 the U.S. Geological Survey established an experimental project to assess the possible and practical use of remote sensing data to estimate evapotranspiration as an approximation of consumptive use in the lower Colorado River flood plain. The project area was in Parker Valley, Arizona. The approach selected was to...
Cost-effectiveness of the U.S. Geological Survey stream-gaging program in Indiana
J. A. Stewart, R. L. Miller, G.K. Butch
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4343
Analysis of the stream gaging program in Indiana was divided into three phases. The first phase involved collecting information concerning the data need and the funding source for each of the 173 surface water stations in Indiana. The second phase used alternate methods to produce streamflow records at selected sites....

This map is part of the Quaternary Geologic Atlas of the United States (I-1420). It was first published as a printed edition in 1986. The geologic data have now been captured digitally and are presented here along with images of the printed map sheet and component parts as PDF files. The...
Computer programs for computing particle-size statistics of fluvial sediments
H.H. Stevens, D. W. Hubbell
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4141
Two versions of computer programs for inputing data and computing particle-size statistics of fluvial sediments are presented. The FORTRAN 77 language versions are for use on the Prime computer, and the BASIC language versions are for use on microcomputers. The size-statistics program compute Inman, Trask , and Folk statistical parameters...

Progress report on the effects of highway construction on suspended-sediment discharge in the Coal River and Trace Fork, West Virginia, 1975-81
S. C. Downs, David H. Appel
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4275
Construction of the four-lane Appalachian Corridon G highway disturbed about 2 sq mi in the Coal River and 0.35 sq mi of the 4.75 sq mi Trace Fork basin in southern West Virginia. Construction had a negligible effect on runoff and suspended-sediment load in the Coal River and its major...

R. L. Seiler
1986, Open-File Report 86-249
This report contains hydrologic data collected in Salt Lake Valley from October 1968 to October 1985. The report area is bounded by the Wasatch Range on the east, the Oquirrh Mountains on the west, the Traverse Mountains on the south, and the boundary between Davis and Salt Lake Counties on...
Free-air gravity anomaly map of the Long Island Platform
D. R. Hutchinson, W.D. Leeds, Robin Bell, J. A. Grow
1986, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1807
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has collected marine gravity data along the U.S. Atlantic continental margin during the last decade. This map of the Long Island platform combines the data used to make the preliminary free-air gravity anomaly map of the Atlantic continental margin (Grow and others, 1976) with the...
Water-resources activities in New York, 1985-86
A. J. Finch (compiler), S.M. Durocher
1986, Open-File Report 86-146
The U.S. Geologic Survey conducts water-resources investigations and hydrologic data collection in all states to provide the data and understanding needed for optimum use and management of the nation 's surface water and groundwater. This is achieved through jointly funded programs with state, county, municipal, and other Federal agencies. The...
Water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Montana, October 1985 through September 1986
Robert S. Roberts
1986, Open-File Report 86-421-W
Water resources programs and activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Montana consist principally of hydrologic data collection (6 projects); local areal, or statewide hydrologic investigation (12 projects); and research (1 project). The work is supported by direct Federal funding, by transfer of funds from other federal agencies, and by...
Traveltime and dispersion of a soluble dye in the South Branch Potomac River, Petersburg to Green Spring, West Virginia
A. R. Jack
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4167
Traveltime studies, using rhodamine dyes, were made in 1970 and 1982 on the South Branch Potomac River from Petersburg, West Virginia, to the confluence with the North Branch Potomac River at Green Spring, West Virginia. Flow duration at the time of the studies was approximately 32% in November 1970 and...
