Negative effects of commercial mussel dragging on eelgrass beds in Maine
Hilary A. Neckles, Frederick T. Short, Seth Barker, Blaine S. Kopp
2005, Fact Sheet 2005-3054
A study by the US Geological Survey, the University of New Hampshire, and the Maine Department of Marine Resources showed that commercial mussel dragging poses a severe and long-lasting threat to eelgrass (Zostera marina). Dragging can damage large areas, with individual drag scars up to 79 acres in size...
Compilation of data relating to the erosive response of 608 recently-burned basins in the western United States
Joseph E. Gartner, Susan H. Cannon, Erica R. Bigio, Nicole K. Davis, Charles Parrett, Kenneth L. Pierce, Michael G. Rupert, Brandon L. Thurston, Matthew J. Trebesch, Steve P. Garcia, Alan H. Rea
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1218
This report presents a compilation of data on the erosive response, debris-flow initiation processes, basin morphology, burn severity, event-triggering rainfall, rock type, and soils for 608 basins recently burned by 53 fires located throughout the Western United States.  The data presented here are a combination of those collected during...
Missouri magnetic and gravity maps and data: A web site for distribution of data
Robert P. Kucks, Patricia L. Hill
2005, Data Series 128
Magnetic anomalies are due to variations in the Earth's magnetic field caused by the uneven distribution of magnetic minerals (primarily magnetite) in the rocks that make up the upper part of the Earth's crust. The features and patterns of the magnetic anomalies can be used to delineate details of subsurface...
Simulated effects of water-level changes in the Mississippi River and Pokegama Reservoir on ground-water levels, Grand Rapids area, Minnesota
Perry M. Jones
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5139
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, used an existing, three-dimensional, numerical ground-water flow model (referred to as the calibrated model) to assess the effects of water-level changes in the Mississippi River and Pokegama Reservoir on ground-water levels in adjacent glaciofluvial aquifers in the...
Lithology, hydraulic properties, and water quality of the Sandstone Aquifer in the northwestern part of the Bad River Indian Reservation, Wisconsin, 1998-1999
Charles P. Dunning
2005, Open-File Report 2004-1425
The Precambrian sandstone aquifer in the northwestern part of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Tribe of Chippewa Indians Reservation, Ashland County, Wisconsin, provides much of the drinking water to area residents. A study was undertaken in cooperation with the Bad River Tribe to provide specific information about the...
Rainfall-Runoff and Water-Balance Models for Management of the Fena Valley Reservoir, Guam
Chiu W. Yeung
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2004-5287
The U.S. Geological Survey's Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) and a generalized water-balance model were calibrated and verified for use in estimating future availability of water in the Fena Valley Reservoir in response to various combinations of water withdrawal rates and rainfall conditions. Application of PRMS provides a physically based method...
Hydrogeology, water quality, and saltwater intrusion in the Upper Floridan Aquifer in the offshore area near Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, and Tybee Island, Georgia, 1999-2002
W. Fred Falls, Camille Ransom, James Landmeyer, Eric J. Reuber, Lucy E. Edwards
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5134
To assess the hydrogeology, water quality, and the potential for saltwater intrusion in the offshore Upper Floridan aquifer, a scientific investigation was conducted near Tybee Island, Georgia, and Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Four temporary wells were drilled at 7, 8, 10, and 15 miles to the northeast of Tybee...
Interpretation of geophysical logs, aquifer tests, and water levels in wells in and near the North Penn Area 7 Superfund site, Upper Gwynedd Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, 2000-02
Lisa A. Senior, Peter J. Cinotto, Randall W. Conger, Philip H. Bird, Karl A. Pracht
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5069
Ground water in the vicinity of various industrial facilities in Upper Gwynedd Township and Lansdale Borough, Montgomery County, Pa., is contaminated with various volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The 2-square-mile area was placed on the National Priorities List as the North Penn Area 7 Superfund site by the U.S. Environmental Protection...
Streamflow statistics for the Paradise and Pocono Creek watersheds and selected streamflow-gaging stations in Monroe County, Pennsylvania
Ronald E. Thompson, Gregory J. Cavallo
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5162
suite of 36 observed streamflow statistics, ranging from high to low flows, were computed for 7 continuous-record and predicted for 12 partial-record streamflow-gaging stations in Monroe County, Pa. The predicted statistics for the partial-record stations were determined from regression analyses of intermittent streamflow measurements made at the partial-record stations...
Seepage investigation on selected reaches of Fish Creek, Teton County, Wyoming, 2004
Jerrod D. Wheeler, Cheryl A. Eddy-Miller
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5133
A seepage investigation was conducted on Fish Creek, a tributary to the Snake River in Teton County in western Wyoming, near Wilson. Mainstem, return flow, tributary, spring, and diversion sites were selected and measured on six reaches along Fish Creek. Flow was measured under two flow regimes, high flow in...
Health-Based Screening Levels and their Application to Water-Quality Data
Patricia L. Toccalino, John S. Zogorski, Julia E. Norman
2005, Fact Sheet 2005-3059
To supplement existing Federal drinking-water standards and guidelines, thereby providing a basis for a more comprehensive evaluation of contaminant-occurrence data in a human-health context, USGS began a collaborative project in 1998 with USEPA, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, and the Oregon Health & Science University to calculate non-enforceable...
