Water quality and ground-water/surface-water interactions along the John River near Anaktuvuk Pass, Alaska, 2002-2003
Edward H. Moran, Timothy P. Brabets
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5229
The headwaters of the John River are located near the village ofAnaktuvuk Pass in the central Brooks Range of interior Alaska. With the recent construction of a water-supply system and a wastewater-treatment plant, most homes in Anaktuvuk Pass now have modern water and wastewater systems. The effluent from the treatment plant discharges into a...
Inventory of the mosses, liverworts, and lichens of Olympic National Park, Washington- Species list
M. Hutten, Andrea Woodward, K. Hutten
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5240
The identification of non-vascular cryptogam species (lichens, mosses, liverworts, and hornworts) is especially challenging because of their small size, their often microscopic or chemical distinguishing features, and their enormous diversity. Consequently, they are a poorly known component of Olympic National Park, despite their ecological and aesthetic importance. This project is...

Water quality and hydrology of the Lac Vieux Desert watershed, Gogebic County, Michigan, and Vilas County, Wisconsin, 2002-04
T. L. Weaver, B.P. Neff, J.M. Ellis
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5237
Lac Vieux Desert is a prominent 6.6 square-mile lake that straddles the Michigan-Wisconsin border and forms the headwaters of the Wisconsin River. For generations, the Lac Vieux Desert Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians have used Lac Vieux Desert and the surrounding area for growing and harvesting wild rice,...

Pesticides in surface water, bed sediment, and ground water adjacent to commercial cranberry bogs, Lac du Flambeau Reservation, Vilas County, Wisconsin
David A. Saad
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5262
Pesticides commonly used on cranberries were detected in lakes, lake-bed sediment, and ground water of the Lac du Flambeau Reservation, Wisconsin adjacent to commercial cranberry bogs. Additionally, pesticides not typically used on cranberries were also detected. In water samples from Little Trout and the Corn Lakes, which are adjacent to commercial...
Sediment-transport investigations of the upper Yellowstone River, Montana, 1999 through 2001: Data collection, analysis, and simulation of sediment transport
Stephen R. Holnbeck
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5234
The upper Yellowstone River in Montana is an important State and national water resource, providing recreational, agricultural, and commercial benefits. Floods in 1996 and 1997, with recorded peak discharges having recurrence intervals close to 100 years, caused substantial streambank erosion and hill- slope mass wasting. Large quantities of sand-,...
Hydraulic properties of the Ironton and Galesville sandstones, Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, southeastern Minnesota, 2004

2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5245
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, conducted an aquifer test December 6–22, 2004, to improve definition of the hydraulic properties of the Ironton and Galesville Sandstones beneath the Shakopee Community in southeastern Minnesota. Three wells were used in the aquifer test—a production well and...
Framework for regional synthesis of water-quality data for the glacial aquifer system in the United States
Kelly L. Warner, Terri Arnold
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5223
The glacial aquifer system is the largest principal aquifer in aerial extent and ground-water use for public supply in the United States. A principal aquifer is defined as a regionally extensive aquifer or aquifer system that has the potential to be used as a source of potable water (U.S. Geological...
Using hydrogeomorphic criteria to classify wetlands on Mt. Desert Island, Maine – Approach, classification system, and examples
Martha G. Nielsen, Glenn R. Guntenspergen, Hilary A. Neckles
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5244
A wetland classification system was designed for Mt. Desert Island, Maine, to help categorize the large number of wetlands (over 1,200 mapped units) as an aid to understanding their hydrologic functions. The classification system, developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Park Service, uses a...
