Development of a relation for steady-state pumping rate for Eagle Valley ground-water basin, Nevada
Freddy E. Arteaga, Timothy J. Durbin
1978, Open-File Report 79-261
Eagle Valley is a topographic and ground-water basin in the west-central area of Nevada. The demand for water in the valley is approaching the limits of the locally available resource, which is the water yield of 9,000 acre-feet per year from the adjacent mountain areas.The steady-state pumping rate from the...

James L. Chisholm, Sanford C. Downs
1978, Water Supply Paper 2055
During and after construction of Appalachian Corridor G, a divided, four-lane highway, five benthic invertebrate samples were collected at each of four sites on Turtle Creek, and, for comparative purposes, three samples were collected at each of two sites on Lick Creek, an adjacent undisturbed stream. Diversity index, generic count,...

A rainfall-runoff modeling procedure for improving estimates of T-year (annual) floods for small drainage basins
Robert W. Lichty, Fred Liscum
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-7
Maps depicting the influence of a climatic factor, C, on the magnitude of synthetic T-year (annual) floods were prepared for a large portion of the eastern United States. The climatic factors were developed by regression analysis of flood data using a parametric rainfall-runoff model and long-term rainfall records. Map estimates...

Digital-model simulation of the glacial-outwash aquifer, Otter Creek-Dry Creek basin, Cortland County, New York
O. J. Cosner, J. F. Harsh
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-71
The city of Cortland, New York, and surrounding areas obtain water from the highly productive glacial-outwash aquifer underlying the Otter Creek-Dry Creek basin. Pumpage from the aquifer in 1976 was approximately 6.3 million gallons per day and is expected to increase as a result of population growth and urbanization. A...
Nitrification in four acidic streams in southern New Jersey
James C. Schornick Jr., Neil M. Ram
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-121
Four characteristically acidic streams in southern New Jersey were investigated to determine the effect of secondary effluent on nitrification in the receiving waters. Chemical and microbiological data were obtained at four sites on each stream. From these data seven factors were evaluated to determine the proclivity of each stream to...

Guidelines for the use of structural versus regression analysis in geomorphic studies
W. R. Osterkamp, Jesse M. McNellis, Paul Robert Jordan
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-135
Simple-regression and structural analysis are similar methods of developing a linear relation from a bivariant group of data. Regression analysis is a useful curve-fitting technique, but often is misapplied to geomorphic data sets. When error components can be identified for both variables, the statistical technique of structural analysis is preferred....
