1996, Open-File Report 96-413
An urban land-use study of the shallow water-bearing zones of the Woodbine aquifer outcrop area began in 1993 as a part of the National Water-Quality Assessment Program for the Trinity River Basin. Thirty-eight wells located within predominantly commercial or residential settings were selected for this study. Water samples were collected...

When the blue-green waters turn red: Historical flooding in Havasu Creek, Arizona
Theodore S. Melis, William M. Phillips, Robert H. Webb, Douglas J. Bills
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4059
Havasu Creek, the second largest tributary of the Colorado River in Grand Canyon National Park, attracts numerous visitors each year owing to its spectacular scenery. Perennial streamflow seldom exceeds 2 cubic meters per second (m3/s), but supports important stands of riparian vegetation, forms unique travertine pools, and spills over spectacular...
Analysis of the peak-flow gaging network in North Dakota
Tara Williams-Sether
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4178
A network analysis technique using generalized least-squares regression was used to evaluate the current (1993) peak-flow gaging network that provides regional peak-flow information for North Dakota. The analysis was conducted to evaluate the current (1993) network and to determine if reactivating discontinued gaging stations and adding new gaging stations on...
Hydrology of central Florida lakes, a primer
D. M. Schiffer, Rafael Medina
1996, Open-File Report 96-412
Lakes are among the most valued natural resources of central Florida. The landscape of central Florida is riddled with lakes—when viewed from the air it almost seems there is more water than land. Florida has more naturally formed lakes than other southeastern States, where many lakes are manmade, created by...
Hydrogeology of the Southeastern Coastal Plain aquifer system in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina
Robert A. Renken
1996, Professional Paper 1410-B
The Southeastern Coastal Plain aquifer system consists of a thick sequence of unconsolidated to poorly consolidated Cretaceous and Tertiary rocks that extend from Mississippi to South Carolina. Four regional sand and gravel aquifers are separated by three regional confining units of clay, shale, and chalk that do not conform everywhere...

Description and field analysis of a coupled ground-water/surface-water flow model (MODFLOW/BRANCH) with modifications for structures and wetlands in southern Dade County, Florida
E.D. Swain, Barbara Howie, Joann Dixon
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4118
A coupled surface-water model (BRANCH) and ground-water model (MODFLOW) model were tested to simulate the interacting wetlands/surface-water/ ground-water system of southern Dade County. Several options created for the MODFLOW ground- ground-water model were used in representing this field situation. The primary option is the MODBRANCH interfacing software, which allows leakage...
An application of bioassessment metrics and multivariate techniques to evaluate central Nebraska streams
S.A. Frenzel
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4152
Ninety-one stream sites in central Nebraska were classified into four clusters on the basis of a cluster analysis (TWINSPAN) of macroinvertebrate data. Rapid bioassessment protocol scores for macroinvertebrate species were significantly different among sites grouped by teh first division into two clusters. This division may have distinguished sites on the...
