Generalized water-table map of Block Island, Rhode Island
H.E. Johnston, A.I. Veeger
1994, Open-File Report 92-49
The map shows the altitude of water table surface above seal level in the glacial deposits that form Block Island. Because the sediments are only moderately permeable, the water table is close to the to the surface in most parts of the island, even in hilly areas. The map represents...
Maps summarizing geohydrologic information in an area of salt-water disposal, eastern Altamont-Bluebell petroleum field, Uinta Basin, Utah
Geoffrey W. Freethey
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 92-4043
In the Altamont-Bluebell Petroleum Field within the Uinta Basin of Utah, saline oil-production water is being injected into the Duchesne River Formation. On the basis of geohydrologic information, a qualitative assessment of the possible effects of this injection indicates that fresh groundwater in certain areas of the Duchesne River formation...
Method to identify wells that yield water that will be replaced by Colorado River water in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah
Richard P. Wilson, Sandra J. Owen-Joyce
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 94-4005
Accounting for the use of Colorado River water is required by the U.S. Supreme Court decree, 1964, Arizona v. California. Water pumped from wells on the flood plain and from certain wells on alluvial slopes outside the flood plain is presumed to be river water and is accounted for as...
Water-surface profile and flood boundaries for the computed 100-year flood, Lame Deer Creek, Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, Montana
R. J. Omang
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 93-4216
Hydrologic and hydraulic evaluations of Lame Deer Creek were made to determine the magnitude of the 100-year flood and the extent of flooding that would occur as the result of this flood. SixtY-six cross sections were Surveyed and 25 cross sections were synthesized along a 9.5-mile reach of Lame Deer...
Water-surface profile and flood boundaries for the computed 100-year flood, Muddy Creek, Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, Montana
R. J. Omang
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 93-4215
Hydrologic and hydraulic evaluations of Muddy Creek were made to determine the magnitude of the 100-year flood and the extent of flooding that would occur as the result of this flood. Forty-three cross sections were surveyed and 14 cross sections were synthesized along a 6.7-mile reach of Muddy Creek. Data...
Water-level conditions in the Black Creek and upper Cape Fear aquifers, 1992, in parts of Bladen and Robeson counties, North Carolina
Alfred Gerald Strickland
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 94-4016
Water-level measurements were made in 68 wells throughout an area of about 860 square miles in Bladen and Robeson Counties, North Carolina, during September and October 1992. Water levels from 58 wells were used to determine the configuration of the potentiometric surface of the Black Creek aquifer. A map of...
Susceptibility of major aquifers to surface contamination -- Holmes, Humphreys, Issaquena, Sharkey, Washington, and Yazoo Counties, Mississippi
Richard S. Moreland, Charles G. O'Hara
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 93-4129
A geographic information system was used to integrate digital spatial data sets describing geology, slope of the land surface, depth to water table, soil permeability, and land use/land cover to rate the relative susceptibility of unconfined parts of the Mississippi River alluvial, Cockfield, and Sparta aquifers in west-central Mississippi to...
Detailed study of irrigation drainage in and near wildlife management areas, west-central Nevada, 1987-90. Part C. Summary of irrigation-drainage effects on water quality, bottom sediment, and biota
Ray J. Hoffman
1994, Water-Resources Investigations Report 92-4024-C
This report presents a summary of the detailed scientific study of Stillwater Wildlife Management Area and other nearby wetlands in west-central Nevada during 1987-90. The work was funded by the National Irrigation Water Quality Program of the U.S. Department of the Interior with the overall objectives of determining (1) the...
Application of studies on the overboard placement of dredged sediments to the management of disposal sites
William Panageotou, Jeffrey Halka
McNair Clark E., editor(s)
1994, Conference Paper, International Conference on Dredging and Dredged Material Placement
From the mid 1960's until 1991, dredging and disposal occurred in the northern Chesapeake Bay without guidelines to maximize the capacity and to minimize the spread of the deposits beyond the disposal sites, particularly toward the navigation channel. Planning for future dredging projects is dependant upon the remaining site capacity...
Antifouling leaching technique for optical lenses
William J. Strahle, C. L. Perez, Marinna A. Martini
1994, Conference Paper, OCEANS '94: 'Oceans Engineering for Today's Technology and Tomorrow's Preservation,' Proceedings
The effectiveness of optical lenses deployed in water less than 100 m deep is significantly reduced by biofouling caused by the settlement of macrofauna, such as barnacles, hydroids, and tunicates. However, machineable porous plastic rings can be used to dispense antifoulant into the water in front of the lens to...
Decade-scale trend in sea water salinity revealed through d18O analysis of Montastraea annularis annual growth bands
Robert B. Halley, Peter K. Swart, Richard E. Dodge, J. Harold Hudson
1994, Bulletin of Marine Science (54) 670-678
Stable oxygen isotope ratios (1)180) of coral skeletons are influenced by ambient water temperature and by the oxygen isotope ratio in the surrounding sea water, which, in turn, is linked to evaporation (salinity) and precipitation. To investigate this relationship more thoroughly, we collected hourly temperature data from the Hen and...
Acoustic mapping as an environmental management tool: I. detection of barrels of low-level radioactive waste, Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary, California
Herman A. Karl, William C. Schwab, A. St. C. Wright, David E. Drake, John L. Chin, William W. Danforth, Edward Ueber
1994, Ocean and Coastal Management (22) 201-227
The oceans have been and will continue to be disposal sites for a wide variety of waste products. Often these wastes are not dumped at the designated sites or transport occurs during or after dumping, and, subsequent attempts to monitor the effects the waste products have on the environment are...
