Variation in the relation of rainfall to runoff from residential lawns in Madison, Wisconsin, July and August 1995
A.D. Legg, R.T. Bannerman, John Panuska
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4194
The quality of runoff from residential lawns is a concern for municipal stormwater management programs. Land-use based computer models are increasingly being used to assess the impact of lawn runoff on urban watersheds. To accurately model the runoff for residential lawns, the variation in the relation of rainfall to runoff...

1996, Open-File Report 96-591
Suspended-solids concentration data were collected in San Francisco Bay during water year 1995 (October 1, 1994September 30, 1995). Optical backscatterance sensors and water samples were used to monitor suspended solids continuously at two sites in Suisun Bay, two sites in Central San Francisco Bay, and three sites in South San...
Occurrence of selected trace elements and organic compounds and their relation to land use in the Willamette River basin, Oregon, 1992-94

Between 1992 and 1994, the U.S.Geological Survey conducted a study of trace elements and organic compounds in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon, as part of the Willamette River Basin Water Quality Study. Low-level analyses were performed for trace elements, volatile organic compounds, organochlorine compounds, and pesticides. Overall, 94 water samples...
Water-quality assessment of the White River Basin, Indiana: Analysis of selected information on nutrients, 1980-92
Jeffrey D. Martin, Charles G. Crawford, Jeffrey W. Frey, Glenn A. Hodgkins
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4192
Water-quality data from 23 surfacewater-quality monitoring sites operated by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management and streamflow data from 11 U.S. Geological Survey streamflow-gaging stations in the White River Basin were analyzed to determine recent (1981 90 water years) water-quality conditions, trends, and river loads for ammonia, nitrate, total nitrogen,...
Assessment of the fresh- and brackish-water resources underlying Dunedin and adjacent areas of northern Pinellas County, Florida
L. A. Knochenmus, E. S. Swenson
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4164
The city of Dunedin is enhancing their potable ground-water resources through desalination of brackish ground water. An assessment of the fresh- and brackish-water resources in the Upper Floridan aquifer was needed to estimate the changes that may result from brackish-water development. The complex hydrogeologic framework underlying Dunedin and adjacent areas...
Nitrate and ammonia in shallow ground water, Carson City urban area, Nevada, 1989
Stephen J. Lawrence
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4224
As part of the National Water-Quality Assessment program (NAWQA) of the U.S. Geological Survey, a network of 26 wells at 20 sites was established in 1989 to investigate the quality of shallow ground water beneath the oldest and most developed part of the Carson City urban area. Nitrate was detected...
Factors affecting phosphorus transport at a conventionally-farmed site in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, 1992-95
Daniel G. Galeone
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4168
The U.S. Geological Survey and the Bureau of Land and Water Conservation of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection conducted a cooperative study to determine the effects of manure application and antecedent soil-phosphorus concentrations on the transport of phosphorus from the soil of a typical farm site in Lancaster County,...
Estimated flood peak discharges on Twin, Brock, and Lightning creeks, Southwest Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, May 8, 1993
R. L. Tortorelli
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4185
The flash flood in southwestern Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, May 8, 1993, was the result of an intense 3-hour rainfall on saturated ground or impervious surfaces. The total precipitation of 5.28 inches was close to the 3-hour, 100-year frequency and produced extensive flooding. The most serious flooding was on Twin, Brock,...
Effects of pumping municipal wells at Junction City, Kansas, on streamflow in the Republican River, Northeast Kansas, 1992-94
N. C. Myers, Xiaodong Jian, G.D. Hargadine
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4130
A digital ground-water flow model was developed to simulate steady-state and transient effects of municipal well pumping from an alluvial aquifer on streamflow in the Republican River near Junction City, Kansas. Seepage survey results indicated that streamflow loss in the vicinity of the municipal well field ranged from 1 to...
Assessment of scour-critical data collected at selected bridges and culverts in South Carolina, 1990-92
N.M. Hurley Jr.
1996, Open-File Report 96-350
Data at bridges and culverts were collected at 3,506 stream crossings in South Carolina during 1990-92. The data include general information unique to the structure; structural data; and hydraulic, geomorphic, and vegetation information. The data are stored in the U.S. Geological Survey South Carolina District Bridge-Scour Data Base. Observed- and...
Effectiveness of a stormwater collection and detention system for reducing constituent loads from bridge runoff in Pinellas County, Florida
Y.E. Stoker
1996, Open-File Report 96-484
The quantity and quality of stormwater runoff from the Bayside Bridge were evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the stormwater collection and detention pond system of the bridge in reducing constituent loads to Old Tampa Bay. Water-quality samples of stormwater runoff from the bridge and outflow from the detention pond...
Geology, hydrogeology, and potential of intrinsic bioremediation at the National Park Service Dockside II site and adjacent areas, Charleston, South Carolina, 1993-94
B. G. Campbell, M.D. Petkewich, J. E. Landmeyer, F. H. Chapelle
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4170
A long history of industrial and commercial use of the National Park Service property and adjacent properties located in downtown Charleston, South Carolina, has caused extensive contamination of the shallow subsurface soils and water-table aquifer. The National Park Service property is located adjacent to a former manufactured-gas plant site, which...

Water Budget for the Lahaina District, Island of Maui, Hawaii
Patricia J. Shade
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4238
Ground-water recharge is estimated as the residual component of a monthly water budget calculated using long-term average rainfall, streamflow, irrigation, pan-evaporation data, and soil characteristics. The water-budget components are defined seasonally, through the use of monthly data, and spatially by topographic and geologic areas, through the use of a geographic...
