Convergent seed germination in South African fynbos and Californian chaparral
Jon E. Keeley, W.J. Bond
1997, Plant Ecology (133) 153-167
California chaparral and South African fynbos are fire-prone communities dominated by species exhibiting remarkable similarities in germination response. In both regions there are a substantial number of species with germination stimulated chemically by charred wood and smoke. This type of germination behaviour has arisen independently in distantly related families and...
Principal facts for gravity profiles collected near the Osgood Mountains and the Slumbering Hills, north-central Nevada
V.J. Grauch, Robert P. Kucks
1997, Open-File Report 97-85
This report presents principal facts for gravity stations collected along profiles near the Osgood Mountains and Slumbering Hills, north- central Nevada. These include (1) data collected near the Osgood Mountains by U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) personnel in the years 1989, 1990, and 1993; and (2) data released to the...
Pesticides associated with suspended sediments in the San Francisco Bay Estuary, California
Brian A. Bergamaschi, Kathryn L. Crepeau, Kathryn Kuivila
1997, Open-File Report 97-24
During the study of inputs of sediment-associated pesticides into the San Francisco Bay Estuary, suspended sediments were isolated from large-volume water samples collected over several years at various stations in Suisun Bay and also covering the principal inputs and outlet. The samples were analyzed for 21 pesticides and pesticide degradation...
Effects of urbanization on water quality in the Kansas River, Shunganunga Creek Basin, and Soldier Creek, Topeka, Kansas, October 1993 through September 1995
L. M. Pope, J.E. Putnam
1997, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4045
A study of urban-related water-qulity effects in the Kansas River, Shunganunga Creek Basin, and Soldier Creek in Topeka, Kansas, was conducted from October 1993 through September 1995. The purpose of this report is to assess the effects of urbanization on instream concentrations of selected physical...
Digital geologic map database of the Nevada Test Site area, Nevada
R. R. Wahl, D.A. Sawyer, S.A. Minor, M. D. Carr, J. C. Cole, W. C. Swadley, R. J. Laczniak, R.G. Warren, K. S. Green, C. M. Engle
1997, Open-File Report 97-140
Forty years of geologic investigations at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) have been digitized. These data include all geologic information that: (1) has been collected, and (2) can be represented on a map within the map borders at the map scale is included in the map digital coverages. The following...
Simulation of ground-water flow and application to the design of a contaminant removal system, Loring Air Force Base, Maine
J.J. Starn
1997, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4055
The fractured-bedrock aquifer underlying the former Fire Training Area at Loring Air Force Base, Maine, has been contaminated with petroleum products as a result of fire training activities. A numerical model of the ground-water-flow system near the Fire Training Area was developed to provide information for the design and operation...
Simulation of ground-water flow in southeastern Coastal Plain clastic aquifers in Georgia and adjacent parts of Alabama and South Carolina
Robert E. Faye, Gregory C. Mayer
1997, Professional Paper 1410-F
Ground-water-flow systems within the clastic sediments of the southeastern Coastal Plain have been described and quantified through the application of digital ground-water-flow models. Results indicate that the rates and distribution of flow are highly variable, and that regional flowpaths in two aquifers traverse several States. A hydrologic budget was developed...
Paleomagnetic and 40Ar/39Ar results from the Grant intrusive breccia and comparison to the Permian Downeys Bluff sill — Evidence for Permian igneous activity at Hicks Dome, southern Illinois Basin
Richard L. Reynolds, Martin B. Goldhaber, Lawrence W. Snee
1997, Bulletin 2094-G
Igneous processes at Hicks dome, a structural upwarp at lat 37.5° N., long 88.4° W. in the southern part of the Illinois Basin, may have thermally affected regional basinal fluid flow and may have provided fluorine for the formation of the Illinois-Kentucky Fluorspar district. The timing of both igneous activity...
Hydrogeologic data for the Blaine aquifer and associated units in southwestern Oklahoma and northwestern Texas
D. L. Runkle, D. L. Bergman, R.S. Fabian
1997, Open-File Report 97-50
This report is a compilation of hydrogeologic data collected for an areal ground-water investigation of the Blaine aquifer and associated units in southwestern Oklahoma and northwestern Texas. The study area includes parts of Greer, Harmon, and Jackson counties in Oklahoma and parts of Childress, Collingsworth, Hall, Hardeman, and Wilbarger counties...
Estimates of bridge scour at two sites on the Virgin River, southeastern Nevada, using a sediment-transport model and historical geomorphic data
M.M. Hilmes, J. E. Vaill
1997, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4073
A bridge-scour study by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Nevada Department of Transportation, began in April 1996 to evaluate the Mesquite, Nevada, and Riverside, Nevada, bridges on the lower Virgin River using a sediment-transport model and historical geomorphic data. The BRIdge Stream Tube model for Alluvial River...
Assessment of nutrients, suspended sediment, and pesticides in surface water of the upper Snake River basin, Idaho and western Wyoming, water years 1991-95
Gregory M. Clark
1997, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4020
A water-quality investigation of the upper Snake River Basin began in 1991 as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's National Water- Quality Assessment Program. As part of the investigation, intensive monitoring was conducted during water years 1993 through 1995 to assess surface-water quality in the basin. Sampling and analysis focused on...
Evaluation of ground-water flow and solute transport in the Lompoc area, Santa Barbara County, California
Daniel J. Bright, David B. Nash, Peter Martin
1997, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4056
Ground-water quality in the Lompoc area, especially in the Lompoc plain, is only marginally acceptable for most uses. Demand for ground water has increased for municipal use since the late 1950's and has continued to be high for irrigation on the Lompoc plain, the principal agricultural area in the Santa...
Surface-water quality changes after 5 years of nutrient management in the Little Conestoga Creek headwaters, Pennsylvania, 1989-91
Edward H. Koerkle, Linda C. Gustafson-Minnich, Michael D. Bilger
1997, Water-Resources Investigations Report 97-4048
A 5.82-square-mile drainage basin in the headwaters of the Little Conestoga Creek in Lancaster County, Pa., was investigated from October 1989 through September 1991 as part of a longer-term effort to determine the effects of nutrient management on surface-water quality. A previous investigation found no statistical evidence that implementation of...
Perception of neighboring plants by rhizomes and roots: Morphological manifestations of a clonal plant
Elisabeth Huber-Sannwald, M. M. Caldwell, David A. Pyke
1997, Canadian Journal of Botany (75) 2146-2157
A previous study showed that clonal morphology of the rhizomatous grass Elymus lanceolatus ssp. lanceolatus (Scibner & J.G. Smith Gould) was influenced more by neighbouring root systems than by the local distribution of nutrients. In this study we determine whether individual rhizomes or roots of E. lanceolatus perceive neighbouring root systems and how this is manifested in...
