Hydrogeology of the Great Basin region of Nevada, Utah, and adjacent states
Russell W. Plume, Stephen M. Carlton
1988, Hydrologic Atlas 694-A
This atlas is a product of the Great Basin Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA), a study that began in 1981. The study is part of a U.S. Geological Survey program for evaluating regional aquifer systems nationwide. A regional aquifer system is defined as “an areally extensive set of aquifers which are...

A. H. Balch, editor(s)
1988, Professional Paper 1330
This seismic-stratigraphic investigation is part of a larger 5-year project the "Madison Project" undertaken by the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey to study the hydrology of the Madison and associated aquifers. The objectives and methods of investigation of the Madison Project are described by the U.S. Geological...

Low-flow profiles of the upper Oconee River and tributaries in Georgia
R.F. Carter, E. H. Hopkins, H.A. Perlman
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4048
Low flow information is provided for use in an evaluation of the capacity of streams to permit withdrawals or to accept waste loads without exceeding the limits of State water quality standards. The purpose of this report is to present the results of a compilation of available low flow data...
Statistical summaries of streamflow records in Oklahoma and parts of Arkansas, Missouri, and Texas through 1984
D. C. Heimann, R. L. Tortorelli
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4205
Statistical summaries of streamflow records through 1984 for gaging stations in Oklahoma and parts of adjacent states are presented in this report. Records are presented for 148 stations with at least 10 years of unregulated or regulated streamflow. Streamflow at 70 of the stations is regulated for certain perdiods. Data...
Estimating flood hydrographs and volumes for Alabama streams
D.A. Olin, J.B. Atkins
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4041
The hydraulic design of highway drainage structures involves an evaluation of the effect of the proposed highway structures on lives, property, and stream stability. Flood hydrographs and associated flood volumes are useful tools in evaluating these effects. For design purposes, the Alabama Highway Department needs information on flood hydrographs and...

Ethylene dibromide (EDB) trends in the upper Floridan Aquifer, Seminole County, Georgia, October 1981 to November 1987
J. B. McConnell
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4034
Results of an investigation to assess the persistence and trends of ethylene dibromide (EDB) in the Upper Floridan aquifer, in Georgia indicate that in November 1987, EDB was present in the groundwater 4 years after it was last applied as a soil fumigant in the intensively farmed area of central...
Potential effects of surface coal mining on the hydrology of the upper Otter Creek-Pasture Creek area, Moorhead coal field, southeastern Montana
N. E. McClymonds, J. A. Moreland
1988, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4187
The combined upper Otter Creek-Pasture Creek area, south of Ashland, Montana, contains large reserves of Federal coal for potential lease sale. A hydrologic study was conducted in the area to describe existing hydrologic systems and generalized groundwater quality, to assess potential effects of surface mining on local water resources, and...
Programs for generating data tables for the annual water-resources data report of the U.S. Geological Survey
R.R. Mason, C.L. Hill
1988, Open-File Report 88-173
The U.S. Geological Survey has developed software that interfaces with the Automated Data Processing System to facilitate and expedite preparation of the annual water-resources data report. This software incorporates a feature that prepares daily values tables and appends them to previously edited files containing station manuscripts. Other features collate the...

Simulated changes in ground-water flow caused by hypothetical pumping in southeastern Carson City, Nevada
D. K. Maurer
1988, Open-File Report 87-769
An existing groundwater model was used to simulate changes in groundwater flow caused by hypothetical pumping in an area near the south-eastern part of Carson City, Nevada. A total of five hypothetical pumping patterns were used in the model simulations. The simulations assumed two pumping rates: total annual average pumpage...

Estimating soil matric potential in Owens Valley, California
Stephen K. Sorenson, R.F. Miller, M.R. Welch, D.P. Groeneveld, F.A. Branson
1988, Open-File Report 88-79
Much of the floor of the Owens Valley, California, is covered with alkaline scrub and alkaline meadow plant communities, whose existence is dependent partly on precipitation and partly on water infiltrated into the rooting zone from the shallow water table. The extent to which these plant communities are capable of...
Osmotic potential and projected drought tolerance of four phreatophytic shrub species in Owens Valley, California
Peter D. Dileanis, D.P. Groeneveld
1988, Open-File Report 88-77
A large part of the water used by plant communities growing on the floor of Owens Valley, California, is derived from a shallow unconfined aquifer. Fluctuations in the water table caused by groundwater withdrawal may result in periods when this water supply is not accessible to plants. The capacity of...
