1996, Open-File Report 96-557
A study was conducted to delineate stream reaches that were gaining flow, losing flow, or that were dry in the upper reaches of Bear Creek Valley near the Y-12 Plant in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The study included a review of maps and discharge data from a seepage investigation conducted at...
Ground-water resources data for Baldwin County, Alabama
James L. Robinson, Richard S. Moreland, Amy E. Clark
1996, Open-File Report 96-487
Geologic and hydrologic data for 237 wells were collected, and water-levels in 223 wells in Baldwin and Escambia Counties were measured. Long-term water water-level data, available for many wells, indicate that ground-water levels in most of Baldwin County show no significant trends for the period of record. However, ground-water levels...
Water-quality assessment of the Albemarle-Pamlico drainage basin, North Carolina and Virginia; trace elements in Asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea) soft tissues and redbreast sunfish (Lepomis auritus) livers, 1992-93
P. M. Ruhl, K.E. Smith
1996, Open-File Report 96-334
The analysis of potential contaminants in biological tissues is an important part of many water-quality assessment programs, including the National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) Program. Tissue analyses often are used to provide information about (1) direct threats to ecosystem integrity, and (2) the occurrence and distribution of potential contaminants in the...

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...
Hydrogeology of the sand and gravel aquifer in the vicinity of the Wild Rose State Fish Hatchery, north-central Waushara County, Wisconsin
T.D. Conlon
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4213
The sand and gravel aquifer in the vicinity of the Wild Rose State Fish Hatchery is approximately 200 feet thick. The aquifer consists mostly of sand that was deposited as glacial till and outwash approximately 15,000 years ago. Hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer at the hatchery, calculated from slug tests,...
Fishes of the White River basin, Indiana
Charles G. Crawford, Michael J. Lydy, Jeffrey W. Frey
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4232
Since 1875, researchers have reported 158 species of fish belonging to 25 families in the White River Basin. Of these species, 6 have not been reported since 1900 and 10 have not been reported since 1943. Since the 1820's, fish communities in the White River Basin have been affected by...
Occurrence of selenium and mercury in surface water, Wind River Indian Reservation, Wyoming, 1995
Melanie L. Clark, Wilfrid J. Sadler
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4159
Surface-water samples for chemical analyses were collected during May and August 1995 from 13 sites in an irrigated area of the Wind River Federal Irrigation Project, Wind River Indian Reservation, Wyoming. Sites included irrigation drains, ponds, and streams in an irrigated area partially underlain by seleniferous geologic materials described as...
Hydrology and water quality of Lauderdale Lakes, Walworth County, Wisconsin, 1993-94
H.S. Garn, T.L. Seidel, W. J. Rose
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4235
Water and phosphorus budgets were determined for the Lauderdale Lakes (the interconnected Green, Middle, and Mill Lakes) in Walworth County, southeastern Wisconsin to provide background information for a wastewater management plan to limit the input of phosphorus to the lakes. The most significant components of the water and phosphorus budgets...
Phosphorus dynamics in Delavan Lake Inlet, southeastern Wisconsin, 1994
Dale M. Robertson, S. J. Field, J. F. Elder, G. L. Goddard, W.F. James
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4160
Removal of rough fish from Delavan Lake Inlet in southeastern Wisconsin transformed the inlet from a shallow, turbid-water system with few macrophytes to a clear-water system with an abundance of macrophytes and increased phosphorus concentrations. To understand the changes in the phosphorus dynamics, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S....

Determination of roughness coefficients for streams in west-central Florida
D.F. Gillen
1996, Open-File Report 96-226
Physical and hydraulic characteristics are presented for 10 west-central Florida stream reaches. These may be used as reference reaches for estimating Manning's roughness coefficient, n, in similar rivers and channels. Discharge in these reaches ranged from 1.8 to 3,010 cubic feet per second and water-surface slope ranged from 0.00002 to...
