Hydrology of lakes in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Metropolitan Area: A summary of available dat
Mark S. McBride
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-85
Data were collected and summarized on the hydrology and hydrogeology of 949 lakes, 10 acres (4 hectares) or larger, in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area, Minnesota. Eight tables totaling over 100 pages present data on location, depth, area, lake level, ecological and game-management classification, inflowing and outflowing streams, soils, bedrock...
Availability of ground water near Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana
D. C. Gillies
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-46
A study of the hydraulic characteristics of the unconsolidated glacial deposits near the city of Carmel in central Indiana shows that 21.3 million gallons per day (933 litres per second) of additional water could be withdrawn from the aquifer for an indefinite period of time . This pumpage is approximately...
Backflushing Filters for Field Processing of Water Samples Prior to Trace-Element Analyses
V. C. Kennedy, E. A. Jenne, J.M. Burchard
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-126
A portable unit is described for filtering water samples at field sites in such a manner that the filtrate is suitable for analysis not only of major constituents but also of trace elments at the mocrogram-per-liter level. A battery-operated peristaltic pump forces the water sample through medical-grade silicone tubing into...
Mapping and measuring land-cover characteristics of New River Basin, Tennessee, using Landsat digital tapes
E. F. Hollyday, S.P. Sauer
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-106
Land-cover information is needed to select subbasins within the New River basin, Tennessee, for the study of hydrologic processes and also is needed to transfer study results to other sites affected by coal mining. It was believed that data recorded by the first Earth Resources Technology Satellite (Landsat-1) could be...
Water-quality investigation, Eel River, California
George A. Irwin
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-5
This report summarizes selected water-quality data collected in the Eel River, Calif., during a reconnaissance study from November 1971 through January 1975. It also includes a summary of the major inorganic chemical data collected near Dos Rios, at South Fork, and at Scotia since the early 1950's. The recent reconnaissance...
Measured and simulated ground-water levels in the Franklin area, southeastern Virginia
O. J. Cosner
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-83
The Lower Cretaceous aquifer is the principal source of water in Southeastern Virginia. Synoptic water-level measurements made since 1970 have been used to verify a digital model of the aquifer. Measurements made in December 1973, August and December 1974 were used to further verify the model, using updated pumpage for...

Availability of water in the Floridan aquifer in southern Duval and northern Clay and St. Johns counties, Florida
R.W. Fairchild
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-98
The Floridan aquifer within the area of investigation consists of 1,100 to 1,800 feet of soft, porous limestone interbedded with hard, dense limestone and dolomite overlain by several hundred feet of confining beds. From late 1948 to May 1972, water levels in wells tapping the Floridan aquifer declined as much...
Availability of ground water in the Middle Connecticut River basin, west-central New Hampshire
John E. Cotton
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-18
This report provides a guide for ground-water exploration and for water- and land-use planning and management. Sufficient amounts of water to supply single family homes are available from the bedrock aquifer nearly everywhere in the middle Connecticut River basin. Relatively thin and narrow, unconsolidated aquifers of sand or sand and...
