Drought-sensitive aquifer settings in southeastern Pennsylvania
Tammy M. Zimmerman, Dennis W. Risser
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5169
This report describes the results of a study conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Topographic and Geologic Survey, to determine drought-sensitive aquifer settings in southeastern Pennsylvania. Because all or parts of southeastern Pennsylvania have been in drought-warning...
Descriptions and preliminary report on sediment cores from the southwest coastal area, Everglades National Park, Florida
G. Lynn Wingard, Thomas M. Cronin, Charles W. Holmes, Debra A. Willard, Carlos A. Budet, Ruth E. Ortiz
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1360
Sediment cores were collected from five locations in the southwest coastal area of Everglades National Park, Florida, in May 2004 for the purpose of determining the ecosystem history of the area and the impacts of changes in flow through the Shark River Slough. An understanding of natural cycles of change...

2005, General Information Product 15
This handbook provides information about the threat posed by earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay region and explains how you can prepare for, survive, and recover from these inevitable events. If you live or work in the region, you need to know why you should be concerned with earthquakes, what...
NOAA-USGS Debris-Flow Warning System - Final Report
NOAA-USGS Debris Flow Task Force
2005, Circular 1283
Landslides and debris flows cause loss of life and millions of dollars in property damage annually in the United States (National Research Council, 2004). In an effort to reduce loss of life by debris flows, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS) and the U.S. Geological...
Water-quality assessment of part of the Upper Mississippi River Basin, Minnesota and Wisconsin — Ground-water quality along a flow system in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, Minnesota, 1997-98
William J. Andrews, James R. Stark, Alison L. Fong, James D. Fallon
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5120
As part of a national analysis of the effects of land use on ground-water quality for the National Water-Quality Assessment Program, the U.S. Geological Survey sampled wells along a flow system in surficial glacial aquifers in the northwestern part of the Twin Cities metropolitan area during 1997 and 1998. In...
Induction conductivity and natural gamma logs collected in 15 wells at Camp Stanley Storage Activity, Bexar County, Texas
Gregory P. Stanton
2005, Data Series 132
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Camp Stanley Storage Activity conducted electromagnetic induction conductivity and natural gamma logging of 15 selected wells on the Camp Stanley Storage Activity, located in northern Bexar County, Texas, during March 28–30, 2005. In late 2004, a helicopter electromagnetic survey was flown of...
Calculation of streamflow statistics for Ontario and the Great Lakes states
Andrew R. Piggott, Brian P. Neff
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1295
Basic, flow-duration, and n-day frequency statistics were calculated for 779 current and historical streamflow gages in Ontario and 3,157 streamflow gages in the Great Lakes states with length-of-record daily mean streamflow data ending on December 31, 2000 and September 30, 2001, respectively. The statistics were determined using the U.S. Geological...
Water-level altitudes in wells completed in the northern segment of the Edwards Aquifer, Travis, Williamson, and Bell Counties, Texas, March-June 2005
Sachin D. Shah
2005, Data Series 125
During March-June 2005, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), measured water levels in 80 Edwards aquifer wells in the outcrop of the northern segment of the aquifer in Travis, Williamson, and Bell Counties. Public-supply and private wells were selected in areas where...
Calibration parameters used to simulate streamflow from application of the Hydrologic Simulation Program-FORTRAN Model (HSPF) to mountainous basins containing coal mines in West Virginia
John T. Atkins, Jeffrey B. Wiley, Katherine S. Paybins
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5099
This report presents the Hydrologic Simulation Program-FORTRAN Model (HSPF) parameters for eight basins in the coal-mining region of West Virginia. The magnitude and characteristics of model parameters from this study will assist users of HSPF in simulating streamflow at other basins in the coal-mining region of West Virginia. The parameter...
An assessment of optical properties of dissolved organic material as quantitative source indicators in the Santa Ana River basin, Southern California
Brian A. Bergamaschi, Erica Kalve, Larry Guenther, Gregory O. Mendez, Kenneth Belitz
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5152
The ability to rapidly, reliably, and inexpensively characterize sources of dissolved organic material (DOM) in watersheds would allow water management agencies to more quickly identify problems in water sources, and to more efficiently allocate water resources by, for example, permitting real-time identification of high-quality water suitable for ground-water recharge, or...

Evidence of cold climate slope processes from the New Jersey Coastal Plain: Debris flow stratigraphy at Haines Corner, Camden County, New Jersey
Wayne L. Newell
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1296
Excavations through surficial deposits across the New Jersey Coastal Plain commonly reveal homogenized surficial sediments, deformed sedimentary structures, chaotically rearranged bed-forms, and wedge-shaped cracks filled with sand from the top-most layers of extant soil profiles. As a whole, these abundant, broadly distributed phenomena are best explained as artifacts of...
