Trend analysis of weekly acid rain data, 1978-83
Terry L. Schertz, Robert M. Hirsch
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4211
There are 19 stations in the National Atmospheric Deposition Program which operated over the period 1978-83 and were subsequently incorporated into the National Trends Network in 1983. The precipitation chemistry data for these stations for this period were analyzed for trend, spatial correlation, seasonality, and relationship to precipitation volume. The...
Cost effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Louisiana
R.A. Herbert, D.D. Carlson
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4044
This report documents the results of a study of the cost effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Louisiana. Data uses and funding sources were identified for the 68 continuous-record stream gages currently (1984) in operation with a budget of $408,700. Three stream gages have uses specific to a short-term study...
Methods for determination of inorganic substances in water and fluvial sediments
Marvin J. Fishman, Linda C. Friedman, editor(s)
1985, Open-File Report 85-495
Chapter Al of the laboratory manual contains methods used by the Geological Survey to analyze samples of water, suspended sediments, and bottom material for their content of inorganic constituents. Included are methods for determining the concentration of dissolved constituents in water, total recoverable and total of constituents in water-suspended sediment...
Contributions of suspended sediment from highway construction and other land uses to the Olentangy River, Columbus, Ohio
D.R. Helsel
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4336
Highway construction within the Olentangy River flood plain in Columbus, Ohio, was projected to be a large source of suspended sediment to the river system. A monitoring program was begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1978 to quantify the implacts of construction process. Sediment information was collected daily at...

Documentation of a Regional Aquifer Simulation Model, RAQSIM, and a description of support programs applied in the Twin Platte-Middle Republican Study Area, Nebraska
R. E. Cady, J. M. Peckenpaugh
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4168
RAQSIM, a generalized flow model of a groundwater system using finite-element methods, is documented to explain how it works and to demonstrate that it gives valid results. Three support programs that are used to compute recharge and discharge data required as input to RAQSIM are described. RAQSIM was developed to...

Background hydrologic information in potential lignite mining areas in north-central Mississippi, August 1984
S. J. Kalkhoff
1985, Open-File Report 85-327
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Mississippi Department of Natural Resources, Bureau of Geology, is conducting a hydrologic data collection program in potential lignite-producing areas in Mississippi. During the last two weeks of August 1984, hydrologic data were collected at 15 stream sites that drain potential lignite mining...

The effects of ground water, slope stability, and seismic hazard on the stability of the South Fork Castle Creek blockage in the Mount St. Helens area, Washington
William Meyer, M. A. Sabol, H. X. Glicken, Barry Voight
1985, Professional Paper 1345
A slope stability analysis on the South Fork Castle Creek debris avalanche blockage, near Mount St. Helens, Washington, was conducted to determine the likelihood of mass failure of the blockage and resultant breakout of South Fork Castle Creek Lake. On the basis of material properties, groundwater levels, and seismic history...
