Ground-water resources of the upper White River basin in Arkansas
J. M. Kilpatrick, A. H. Ludwig
1990, Open-File Report 88-724
The upper White River basin in Arkansas lies almost entirely within the Ozark Plateaus physiographic province, which consists of deeply dissected plateaus underlain by limestone, shale, and dolomite. Significant water-yielding units within the upper White River basin include the Eminence and Potosi Dolomites, the Roubidou Formation, the Gasconade Dolomite and...

Water resources of Codington and Grant counties, South Dakota
D. S. Hansen
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4147
The primary sources of surface water in Codington and Grant Counties are Lakes Kampeska and Pelican and numerous potholes in western Codington County. Seasonal variations in streamflow and lake levels are directly related to seasonal variations in precipitation and evapotranspiration. Dissolved-solids concentrations in water from streams and lakes increase as...

Techniques for estimating flood-peak discharges of rural, unregulated streams in Ohio
G. F. Koltun, J.W. Roberts
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4126
Multiple-regression equations are presented for estimating flood-peak discharges having recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 years at ungaged sites on rural, unregulated streams in Ohio. The average standard errors of prediction for the equations range from 33.4% to 41.4%. Peak discharge estimates determined by log-Pearson...
Importance of return flow as a component of water use
L. C. Trotta, M.S. Horn
1990, Open-File Report 90-197
Understanding the relation between the hydrologjc cycle and water use is important for effective water-resources management. The hydrologic cycle is the natural pathway of water from evaporation to precipitation to infiltration or runoff and to storage from which evaporation can again occur. The science of water use is the study...

Time-of-travel of solutes in the Trinity River from Dallas to Trinidad, Texas, May and August 1987
W. Scott Gain
1990, Open-File Report 89-614
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the city of Dallas, conducted a study of the time of travel of solutes during moderate flow conditions in a reach of the Trinity River from the outfall of the Dallas Central Wastewater Treatment Plant (DCWTP) to the USGS streamflow-gaging station 08062700,...
Fathometer data from Bart Lake and Lake Dorothy near Juneau, Alaska, 1988-89
H.R. Seitz, D.S. Thomas
1990, Open-File Report 90-152
Lake Dorothy is located about 20 miles southeast of Juneau, Alaska in an undeveloped area south of Taku Inlet. It occupies a linear, glacially eroded depression at an altitude of 2,400 ft. Several studies have assessed the feasibility of hydropower generation by a tap of Lake Dorothy. One of the...

Water resources data collected during water year 1988 at selected James River basin sites in North Dakota and South Dakota
Steven K. Sando, Kevin Guttormson, T.A. Gleich
1990, Open-File Report 90-101
Operation of the proposed Garrison Diversion Unit will supply water from the Missouri River in North Dakota to the upstream part of the James River basin. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation initiated a monitoring program in 1984 to aid in determining whether the potential impacts resulting from Garrison Diversion Unit...
Large springs in the Valley and Ridge physiographic province of Pennsylvania
D. A. Saad, D. J. Hippe
1990, Open-File Report 90-164
In the Valley and Ridge physiographic province of Pennsylvania, 137 springs have a single or median discharge value equal to or greater than 100 gallons per minute. Information for these large springs has been tabulated to summarize the data useful to the U.S. Geological Survey's Appalachian Valleys--Piedmont Regional Aquifer-System Analysis...
