Cost-effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in New Jersey
R.D. Schopp, R.L. Ulery
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4108
The results of a study of the cost-effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in New Jersey are documented. This study is part of a 5-year nationwide analysis undertaken by the U.S. Geological Survey to define and document the most cost-effective means of furnishing streamflow information. This report identifies the principal uses...
Analysis and interpretation of data obtained in tests of the geothermal aquifer at Klamath Falls, Oregon
E.A. Sammel
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4216
Water with temperatures to 130 C occurs in an extensive, heterogeneous aquifer at depths of a few hundred to nearly 2,000 feet. Chemical and isotopic analyses suggest that 190 C water mixes with cooler recharge water in a ratio of about 2 to 3 in zone within and beneath the...

Partial compilation and revision of basic data in the WATEQ programs
D. Kirk Nordstrom, S.D. Valentine, J.W. Ball, Niel Plummer, B.F. Jones
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4186
Several portions of the basic data in the WATEQ series of computer programs (WATEQ, WATEQF, WATEQ2, WATEQ3, and PHREEQE) are compiled. The density and dielectric constant of water and their temperature dependence are evaluated for the purpose of updating the Debye-Huckel solvent parameters in the activity coefficient equations. The standard...
Estimation of streamflow for selected sites on the Carson and Truckee rivers in California and Nevada, 1944-80
J. C. Blodgett, R.N. Oltmann, K.R. Poeschel
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4058
Daily mean and monthly discharges were estimated for 10 sites on the Carson and Truckee Rivers for periods of incomplete records and for tributary sites affected by reservoir regulation. On the basis of the hydrologic characteristics, stream-flow data for a water year were grouped by month or season for subsequent...
Hydrology of a surface coal mined area in Randolph County, Illinois
J.V. Borghese, A. R. Klinger
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4256
Ground water was monitored from October 1980 to April 1983 and surface water was monitored from October 1980 to September 1982 in the 0.6-square-mile basin of Plum Creek Tributary in Randolph County, Illinois, to determine effects of surface mining for coal. During the study period, the basin was being surfaced...
Ground-water conditions and well yields in fractured rocks, southwestern Nevada County, California
R. W. Page, P.W. Anttila, K. L. Johnson, M.J. Pierce
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4262
This report describes the availability of ground water in the southwestern part of Nevada County, and suggests general guidelines for selecting sites for future ground-water development in the study area. Ground water in this area occurs chiefly in fractures in hard pre-Tertiary metavolcanic and plutonic rocks generally above a depth...

1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4141
Discharge measurements and sediment samples were taken at streamflow-gaging station 09260050 Yampa River at Deerlodge Park in 1982 and 1983 to determine the annual sediment supply to the Yampa Canyon in Dinosaur National Monument. Forty-three years of discharge records at two tributary sites were combined to determine the historic discharge...
Impact of development on availability and quality of ground water in eastern Nassau County, Florida, and southeastern Camden County, Georgia
D.P. Brown
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4190
The primary sources of water in the area are from the surficial and Floridan aquifers. The surficial aquifer, consisting of thin permeable zones of sand, shell, and limestone, provides limited water supplies (10-50 gallons per minute). Its estimated transmissivity ranges from less than 100 to 10,000 feet squared per day....
