Potential effects of surface coal mining on the hydrology of the Corral Creek area, Hanging Woman Creek coal field, southeastern Montana
N. E. McClymonds
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4260
The Corral Creek area of the Hanging Woman Creek coal field, 9 miles east of the Decker coal mines near the Tongue River, contains large reserves of Federal coal that have been identified for potential lease sale. A hydrologic study was conducted in the area to describe existing hydrologic systems...
Effects of urbanization on three ponds in Middleton, Wisconsin
Leo B. House
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4051
A digital hydrologic model was used to simulate the effects of future residential development on pond inflow volumes and resulting water levels of three ponds in Middleton, Wisconsin. The model computed the daily water budget and the resulting water level for each pond. The results of the model calibration are...
Ground-water-quality appraisal of sand-plain aquifers in Hubbard, Morrison, Otter Tail, and Wadena Counties, Minnesota
C. F. Myette
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4080
Water samples were collected periodically from 124 wells completed in sand-plain aquifers in Hubbard, Morrison, Otter Tail, and Wadena Counties, Minnesota, to determine baseline water quality, provide data for evaluation of trends, and to investigate seasonal variations in concentrations of selected chemical constituents during a 3-year study that began in...
Quality-assurance data for routine water analysis in the laboratories of the US Geological Survey for water-year 1983
D.B. Peart, Nancy Thomas
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4234
The U.S. Geological Survey maintains a quality-assurance program based on the analysis of reference samples for its two water-analysis laboratories located in Atlanta, Georgia, and Denver, Colorado. Reference samples containing selected inorganic constituents are prepared at the U.S. Geological Survey 's Ocala, Florida office and disguised as routine samples ,...
Compilation of data collected and derived for water years 1980 and 1981 for the purpose of water-quality modeling of the lower Ouachita River and selected tributaries, south-central Arkansas
J. C. Petersen, E. E. Morris
1984, Open-File Report 84-727
This report represents water-quality, sediment oxygen demand, phytoplankton, periphyton, bacteria, instantaneous and mean-daily discharge, stream geometry, time of travel, reaeration data and other water quality collected on the lower Ouachita River (from just upstream of Little Missouri River to Lock and Dam 6), West Two Bayou, Smackover Creek, Haynes Creek...
A reconnaissance study of saltwater contamination in the El Dorado aquifer, Union County, Arkansas
Matthew E. Broom, T. F. Kraemer, William V. Bush
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4012
Since 1960 chloride concentrations in the El Dorado aquifer have increased near El Dorado, Arkansas. The aquifer is a major source for municipal and industrial water supply in Union County. Greatest withdrawal occurs near El Dorado. Because of this withdrawal, the potentiometric surface at El Dorado has been lowered more...
Simulated effects of proposed reservoir-development alternatives on streamflow quantity in the White River, Colorado and Utah
Gerhard Kuhn, S. R. Ellis
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4297
Numerous reservoirs have been proposed for the White River basin in Colorado and Utah, primarily to provide water for oil-shale development. A multireservoir-flow model was used to simulate the effects of streamflow withdrawal at four of the proposed reservoirs using historical streamflow data from the 1932-81 water years. The proposed...
A statistical approach to evaluate the relation of coal mining, land reclamation, and surface-water quality in Ohio
Janet Hren, K. S. Wilson, D.R. Helsel
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4117
Base-flow data from 779 sites in Ohio 's coal region were analyzed statistically to relate land use to selected water-quality characteristics. Sites were classified into five categories: unmined (100 percent unmined land), abandoned (50 percent or more abandoned surface mines), reclaimed (50 percent or more reclaimed surface mines), deep-mined (50...
Streamflow characteristics of the Yellowstone River basin, Montana, through September 1982
R. J. Omang
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4063
Statistical summaries of streamflow data for selected stream-gaging sites are presented in this report to aid in appraising streamflow in the Yellowstone River basin. Streamflow records are presented for 71 gaging stations for the period of record. Streamflow record collection in the Yellowstone River basin began in 1889. For each...
Glastonbury Gneiss and mantling rocks (a modified Oliverian dome) in south-central Massachusetts and north-central Connecticut: Geochemistry, petrogenesis, and isotopic age
G. W. Leo, R. E. Zartman, D. G. Brookins
1984, Professional Paper 1295
The Glastonbury dome is a long, narrow structure trending approximately 70 km north-northeast through Connecticut and Massachusetts along the west side of the Bronson Hill anticlinorium. Structurally and stratigraphically the dome is analogous to the Oliverian domes of New Hampshire. It is cored by Glastonbury Gneiss and is mantled by...
Water-quality characteristics of urban runoff and estimates of annual loads in the Tampa Bay area, Florida, 1975-80
M. A. Lopez, R.F. Giovannelli
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4181
Rainfall, runoff, and water quality data were collected at nine urban watersheds in the Tampa Bay area from 1975 to 1980. Watershed drainage area ranged from 0.34 to 0.45 sq mi. Land use was mixed. Development ranged from a mostly residential watershed with a 19% impervious surface, to a commercial-residential...
Atmospheric deposition of selected chemicals and their effect on nonpoint-source pollution in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, Minnesota
R. G. Brown
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4195
Atmospheric deposition and subsequent runoff concentrations of total Kjeldahl nitrogen, dissolved nitrite-plus-nitrate nitrogen, total phosphorus, total sulfate (only for atmospheric deposition), total chloride, and total lead were studied from April 1 to October 31, 1980, in one rural and three urban watersheds in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area, Minnesota. Seasonal...
Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Austin, Texas, metropolitan area, 1982
R.M. Slade, J.E. Veenhuis, M.E. Dorsey, S.L. Stewart, L.M. Ruiz

E. J. Koszalka
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4042
In general, ground water in the area is of suitable quality for drinking and most other uses. Some constituents, however, particularly iron, chloride, and nitrogen, occur locally in unacceptable concentrations. Average hydraulic conductivity ranges from 100 to 300 feet per day (ft/d) in the upper glacial aquifer and from 50...

1984, Open-File Report 84-256
In order to refine correlations of surface-wave magnitude, fault rupture length at the ground surface, and fault displacement at the surface by including the uncertainties in these variables, the existing data were critically reviewed and a new data base was compiled. Earthquake magnitudes were redetermined as necessary to make them...
