Sources of springs supplying base flow to the Verde River headwaters, Yavapai County, Arizona
Laurie Wirt, H. W. Hjalmarson
1999, Open-File Report 99-378
Multiple lines of evidence were used to identify source aquifers, quantify their respective contributions, and trace the ground-water flow paths that supply base flow to the uppermost reach of the Verde River in Yavapai County, Arizona. Ground-water discharge via springs provides base flow for a 24-mile long reach from the mouth of Granite Creek (river mile 2.0)...

Estimated water withdrawals and use in Illinois, 1992
Charles Avery
1999, Open-File Report 99-97
The total amount of water withdrawn in Illinois during 1992 was about 19,076 (Mgal/d) million gallons per day. About 16,101 Mgal/d, or about 84 percent of this total, was withdrawn for thermoelectric-power generation, and about 1,877 Mgal/d was withdrawn by and delivered from public-supply facilities. About 1,910 Mgal/d of surface...

Methods of analysis by the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Quality Laboratory-Determination of dissolved arsenic, boron, lithium, selenium, strontium, thallium, and vanadium using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry
John R. Garbarino
1999, Open-File Report 99-93
The inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometric (ICP-MS) methods have been expanded to include the determination of dissolved arsenic, boron, lithium, selenium, strontium, thallium, and vanadium in filtered, acidified natural water. Method detection limits for these elements are now 10 to 200 times lower than by former U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) methods,...
