Effects of land use and surficial geology on flow and water quality of streams in the coal-mining region of southwestern Indiana, October 1979 through September 1980
William G. Wilber, Danny E. Renn, Charles G. Crawford
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4234
An assessment of streams in the coal-mining region of southwestern Indiana was done from October 1979 through September 1980 during stable stream flows to provide baseline hydrologic and water-quality information and to document the effect of several natural and human-induced factors on water quality in the region. Streams in southwestern Indiana...

Selected methods for dissolved iron (II, III) and dissolved sulfide (-II) determinations in geothermal waters
D.V. Vivit, E. A. Jenne
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4189
Dissolved sulfide (-II) and dissolved iron (II, III) were determined in geothermal well water samples collected at Cerro Prieto, Mexico. Most samples consisted of liquid and gas (two phases) at the instant of collection; and a subset of samples, referred to as ' flashed ' samples, consisted of pressurized steam...

Preparation of polyethylene sacks for collection of precipitation samples for chemical analysis
L.J. Schroder, A.W. Bricker
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4067
Polyethylene sacks are used to collect precipitation samples. Washing polyethylene with acetone, hexane, methanol, or nitric acid can change the adsorptive characteristics of the polyethylene. In this study, simulated precipitation at pH 4.5 was in contact with the polyethylene sacks for 21 days; subsamples were removed for chemical analysis at...
Reported withdrawals and estimated use of water in Oklahoma during 1982
J.D. Stoner
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4084
Reported water withdrawals in Oklahoma during 1982 were 1,270.64 million gallons per day. The withdrawals were about equally distributed between ground water and surface water with 46 percent being ground water and 54 percent being surface water. In general, the western counties rely on ground water and the eastern counties...

Ground-water flow and solute transport in the Equus beds area, south-central Kansas, 1940-79
J. M. Spinazola, James B. Gillespie, R. J. Hart
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4336
Water levels have declined about 30 ft from 1940 to 1980 in part of the Equus beds aquifer in south-central Kansas where the city of Wichita operates a well field. A three-dimensional, finite-difference, groundwater flow model was developed to: (1) Reproduce hydrologic conditions in the flow system between the Equus...

Statistical evaluation of the effects of irrigation on chemical quality of ground water and base flow in three river valleys in north-central Kansas
T.B. Spruill
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4156
The chemical quality of groundwater and base flow in three alluvial valleys in Kansas has been changed as a result of 10 or more years of irrigation. Sulfate concentrations in groundwater in the Prairie Dog Creek valley statistically larger during 1981-82 than before irrigation began. Concentrations of calcium, bicarbonate, sulfate,...
Effects of high-rate wastewater spray disposal on the water-table aquifer, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina
G. K. Speiran
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4291
A study by the U.S. Geological Survey from April 1982 through December 1983 evaluated the effects of high-rate disposal of treated wastewater on the water table aquifer, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Flooding of topographically low areas resulted from the application of 10.8 inches of wastewater in 10 days in...
Potential impacts of discharging tertiary-treated wastewater into Port Royal Sound, South Carolina
G. K. Speiran, D.L. Belval
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4326
An assessment of physical characteristics of Port Royal Sound was combined with the results of a dye tracer study and with data collected from a previous environmental study to describe the impact on the water quality from discharging tertiary treated wastewater into the sound. Calculated velocities for the time of...
Water-quality conditions and an evaluation of ground- and surface-water sampling programs in the Livermore-Amador Valley, California
S. K. Sorenson, P. V. Cascos, R. L. Glass
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4352
A program to monitor the ground- and surface water quality in the Livermore-Amador Valley has been operated since 1976. As of 1982, this monitoring network consisted of approximately 130 wells, about 100 of which were constructed specifically for this program, and 9 surface water stations. Increased demand on the groundwater...
