Simulated effects of projected pumping on the availability of freshwater in the Evangeline Aquifer in an area southwest of Corpus Christi, Texas
George E. Groschen
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4182
This study is an investigation of the continued availability of freshwater in the Evangeline aquifer along the Texas Gulf Coast and the potential for degradation of the water quality by salinewater intrusion. Recharge to the aquifer occurs by the infiltration of precipitation in the outcrop area and by cross-formational flow...
Summary of northern Atlantic Coastal Plain hydrology and its relation to disposal of high-level radioactive waste in buried crystalline rock – A preliminary appraisal
O. B. Lloyd, J. D. Larson, R. W. Davis
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4146
Interpretation of available hydrologic data suggests that some areas beneath the Coastal Plain in the States of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Virginia might have some potential for the disposal of nuclear waste in crystalline rock that is buried beneath the Coastal Plain sediments. The areas of major...
Geochemistry and hydrology of thermal springs in the Idaho Batholith and adjacent areas, central Idaho
H.W. Young
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4172
The occurrence of nature of thermal springs in the Idaho batholith and adjacent areas suggest a relation between structural controls and deeply circulating hot-water systems. Springs issuing from granitic rocks are associated mostly with major regional fault structures. Springs issuing from other rocks probably are related to local faulting. Individual...
Hydrologic and geochemical data for the Big Brown lignite mine area, Freestone County, Texas
Michael E. Dorsey
1985, Open-File Report 85-338
Lignite mining in east and east-central Texas is increasing in response to increased energy needs throughout the State. Associated with the increase in mining activities is a greater need to know the effects of mining activities on the water quantity and quality of near-surface aquifers. The near-surface lignite beds mined...
Aquifer tests in west-central Florida, 1952-76
R. M. Wolansky, M. A. Corral
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4044
The ground-water system in west-central Florida is composed of, in descending order, the surficial (usually unconfined) aquifer, intermediate aquifer and confining beds, Floridan aquifer, and lower confining bed. Aquifer test data were analyzed to determine transmissivity, storage coefficient, leakance, and vertical hydraulic conductivity of the aquifers and confining beds. Transmissivities...
Controls on ground-water chemistry in the Horse Heaven Hills, south-central Washington
W.C. Steinkampf, Gilbert C. Bortleson, F. A. Packard
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4048
Miocene basaltic aquifers are the source of domestic and municipal water, and about 20,000 acre-feet of irrigation water annually, in the Horse Heaven Hills in south-central Washington State. Groundwater chemical variations derive from the hydraulic characteristics is of the geohydrologic system, from groundwater basalt reactions, and from irrigation. Some dissolved...
Index of ground-water quality data for Florida
P. R. Seaber, O.O. Williams
1985, Open-File Report 85-177
The Master Water Data Index of the U.S. Geological Survey contains records and information for 13,925 ground-water quality collection sites in Florida as follows: 2,180 active and 11,559 inactive well sites, and 39 active and 147 inactive spring sites. Ground-water quality data have been and are being collected at more...
Water budgets for major streams in the Central Valley, California, 1961-77
J.R. Mullen, Paul Nady
1985, Open-File Report 85-401
A compilation of annual streamflow data for 20 major stream systems in the central Valley of California, for water years 1961-77, is presented. The water-budget tables list gaged and ungaged inflow from tributaries and canals, diversions, and gaged outflow. Theoretical outflow and gain or loss in a reach are computed....
Water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Nebraska, 1984
J.E. McKinney
1985, Open-File Report 85-181
The State of Nebraska has a greater abundance of water than most of the surrounding States. The major water issues in the State concern the management of these water resources in regard to their availability areally across the State and temporally over the changing seasons and cycles of weather. Management...
Effects of fracturing on well yields in the coalfield areas of Wise and Dickenson counties, southwestern Virginia
W. G. Wright
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4061
Fracturing associated with lineaments are the primary influence on yields from wells in the coalfields of southwestern Virgnia. Graphical comparison of yield from wells shows that wells located in valleys with lineaments produce larger quantities of water than wells in valleys without lineaments. Pumping tests at wells located in valleys...
Clay sized fraction and powdered whole-rock X-ray analyses from alluvial basin deposits in central and southern New Mexico
S. K. Anderholm
1985, Open-File Report 85-173
As part of the study of the water quality and geochemistry of Southwest Alluvial Basins (SWAB) in parts of Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas, which is a Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA) program, whole rock x-ray analysis and clay-size fraction mineralogy (x-ray) analysis of selected samples from alluvial basin deposits were...
