Stream-gaging cableways
C. Russell Wagner
1995, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A21
This manual provides a series of standard designs for stream-gaging cableways used by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). It provides helpful information on construction, inspection, and maintenance of cableways....
Presence and distribution of nitrate and selected pesticides in surficial-sand aquifers and selected lakes, 1993-94, East Otter Tail County, Minnesota
Shannon E. Smith, James E. Ruhl
1995, Open-File Report 95-116
This report presents selected data collected during the first year (December 1993 to September 1994) of a three year water-quality study of surficial-sand aquifers and selected lakes in east Otter Tail County, Minnesota. The objectives of the study are (1) to determine the presence and distribution of nitrate-nitrogen and selected...
Supporting data for hydrologic studies in San Francisco Bay, California: Meteorological measurements at the Port of Redwood City during 1992-1994
Laurence E. Schemel
1995, Open-File Report 95-327
Meteorological data were collected during 1992-94 at the Port of Redwood City, California, to support hydrologic studies in southern San Francisco Bay. The meteorological variables that were measured were air temperature, atmospheric pressure, quantum flux (insolation), and four parameters of wind speed and direction: scalar mean horizontal wind speed, (vector)...
Simulated monthly hydrologic data and estimated flood characteristics for Cherry Creek at a proposed reservoir site near Terry, Montana
Charles Parrett, D.R. Johnson
1995, Water-Resources Investigations Report 94-4230
Methods used to simulate a monthly hydrologic budget for water years 1937-92 for the proposed Cherry Creek Reservoir (maximum volume about 14,100 acre-feet) are described and monthly results of the simulation are presented. The budget is based on recorded and estimated streamflow, precipitation, evaporation, and estimated reservoir seepage. The budget...
Fish communities in the plains region of the South Platte River, August 1993 and 1994
Cathy M. Tate, L.M. Martin
1995, Fact Sheet 154-95
As part of the U.S. Geological Survey National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) program, fish communities were sampled at five sites in the South Platte River from Denver, Colo rado, to North Platte, Nebraska. The number and composition of fish species changed from upstream to downstream in the South Platte River. The...
Geochemical data of fumarolically altered rocks, Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes, Alaska
Terry E. Keith
1995, Open-File Report 95-47
Samples from a fossil fumarole originating in the 1912 ash-flow tuffin the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes have been analyzed to ascertain chemical changes resulting from high-temperature fumarolic alteration and subsequent cooling and weathering of the protolith. Samples of the underlying, dominantly leached, dacite-rich portion of the ash-flow tuff adjacent...
Stratigraphy, sedimentology, paleontology, and paleomagnetism of Pliocene-early Pleistocene lacustrine deposits in two cores from western Utah
R.S. Thompson, Charles G. Oviatt, A.P. Roberts, J. Buchner, R. Kelsey, C.J. Bracht, R. M. Forester, J.P. Bradbury
1995, Open-File Report 95-1
The paleoclimatic history of western Utah is being investigated as part of the USGS Global Change and Climate History Program studies of long-term climatic changes in the western United States. The initial objective of the study is to document the environmental conditions during the mid-Pliocene period of warmer-than-modern global climates...
Streamflow, water-temperature, and specific-conductance data for selected streams draining into Lake Fryxell, lower Taylor Valley, Victoria Land, Antarctica, 1990-92
Paul Von Guerard, Diane M. McKnight, R.A. Harnish, J. W. Gartner, E.D. Andrews
1995, Open-File Report 94-545
During the 1990-91 and 1991-92 field seasons in Antarctica, streamflow, water-temperature, and specific-conductance data were collected on the major streams draining into Lake Fryxell. Lake Fryxell is a permanently ice-covered, closed-basin lake with 13 tributary streams. Continuous streamflow data were collected at eight sites, and periodic streamflow measurements were made...
Hydrology and relation of selected water-quality constituents to selected physical factors in Dakota County, Minnesota, 1990-91
J.E. Almendinger, G.B. Mitton
1995, Water-Resources Investigations Report 94-4207
Selected water-quality constituents were determined in water from 5 surface-water sites and 29 wells in Dakota County, Minnesota, to search for possible relations to selected physical factors, including waste-water discharge, agricultural land, Quaternary deposits, bedrock, soil-leaching potential, and water-table depth. All surface-water samples were from the Vermillion River Basin, whose...
Relation of land use to nitrogen concentration in ground water in the Patuxent River basin, Maryland
E. R. McFarland
1995, Water-Resources Investigations Report 94-4170
A decrease in nitrogen inputs could improve water quality in the Chesapeake Bay. In order to provide information about nitrogen transport to the bay, the U.S. Geological Survey examined historical land use associated with nonpoint sources of nitrogen and nitrogen concentrations in ground water in the Patuxent River Basin, Maryland;...
Optimizing sampling effort for sampling warmwater stream fish communities
J.T. Peterson, C.F. Rabeni
1995, North American Journal of Fisheries Management (15) 528-541
We measured the variation of some commonly used fish community attributes for two warmwater stream reaches during June–October 1992 and 1993. Habitat‐specific variation among samples, expressed as coefficients of variation (SD/mean) collected throughout the study ranged from 0.13 to 1.58 and were lower for community‐level attributes such as species richness...
