Analysis of the effects of proposed pumping from the principal artesian aquifer, Savannah, Georgia area
R.B. Randolph, R.E. Krause
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4064
A two-dimensional finite-difference model of the principal artesian aquifer in the Savannah, Georgia, area, originally developed by Counts and Krause (1976), has been expanded and refined. The model was updated and the grid redesigned to provide more current and accurate detail for ground-water resources management alternatives. Improvements in the definition...
Compilation of ground water quality data in Pennsylvania
J. L. Barker
1984, Open-File Report 84-706
The U.S. Geological Survey's water quality file of 4,671 wells and springs in Pennsylvania provided ground-water-quality data for Pennsylvania. The data were assembled into computer-readable format and sorted into 15 major aquifer groups based on principal lithology, physiographic province, and age. Nineteen variables in each group were summarized by the...

Water use in Arkansas, 1981
A.P. Hall, T.W. Holland
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4070
Water use and consumption data for 1981 are presented by county and source. Use-data are presented by category for each county. Total water use, excluding wildlife impoundments, was 32,970 million gallons per day, which was 19 percent less than in 1980; consumption was 4,610 million gallons per day. Ground water...

Assessment of water resources in lead-zinc mined areas in Cherokee County, Kansas, and adjacent areas
Timothy B. Spruill
1984, Open-File Report 84-439
A study was conducted to evaluate water-resources problems related to abandoned lead and zinc mines in Cherokee County, Kansas, and adjacent areas in Missouri and Oklahoma. Past mining activities have caused changes in the hydrogeology of the area. Lead and zinc mining has caused discontinuities and perforations in the confining...
A summary of geologic studies through January 1, 1983, of a potential high-level radioactive waste repository site at Yucca Mountain, southern Nye County, Nevada

Hydrogeologic appraisal of a stratified-drift aquifer near Smyrna, Chenango County, New York
R.J. Reynolds, G. A. Brown
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4029
A broad, Y-shaped valley near Smyrna, New York, contains extensive water-table and confined aquifers that are largely hydraulically separated from the nearby Chenango River to the east. Accordingly, ground-water withdrawals from this valley would not appreciably decrease streamflow in the Chenango River by induced infiltration and could be used for...

Relationship of suspended sediment to streamflow in the Green River Basin, Wyoming
B. H. Ringen
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4026
The relation of suspended-sediment concentration to water discharge was computed using regression analysis for 33 stations and 2 miscellaneous sites in the Green River basin, Wyoming. These relations show that suspended-sediment concentrations vary in direct proportion to streamflow. The number of coincident instantaneous suspended-sediment concentration and water-discharge values available for...
Climatic data for Mirror Lake, West Thornton, New Hampshire, 1981-82
A.M. Sturrock, D.C. Buso, G.M. Bieber, L.G. Engelbrecht, T. C. Winter
1984, Open-File Report 84-816
Research on the hydrology of Mirror Lake, (north-central) New Hampshire includes study of evaporation. Presented here are those climatic data needed for energy-budget and mass-transfer studies, including: temperature of lake water surface, dry-bulb and wet-bulb air temperatures, wind speed, precipitation and solar radiation. Data are collected at raft and land...
Depth and thickness of selected units in Upper Permian, Upper Jurassic, and Lower Cretaceous rocks in southwestern Kansas
Jack Kume, Joseph M. Spinazola
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4095
As ground-water reserves decline in the Ogallala aquifer in an area of about 17,400 square miles in 26 counties of southwestern Kansas, sandstone aquifers in underlying Upper Jurassic and Lower and Upper Cretaceous rocks may be developed to supplement or replace the Ogallala as a source of water for some...

Hydrogeology of the Sulphur Springs area, Tampa, Florida
J. W. Stewart, L. R. Mills
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4085
The Sulfur Springs area includes about 56 square miles in west-central Hillsborough County, Florida. The north-central part of the city of Tampa is highly urbanized; the north-west part of the area is rural or undeveloped. The area has numerous sinkholes, two of which are used as retention basins for urban...
Geohydrology of the valley-fill aquifer in the Bath area, Lower Cohocton River, Steuben County, New York
Timothy S. Pagano, D.B. Terry, M.L. Shaw, A.W. Ingram
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4095
The Bath valley-fill aquifer, southern New York, composed of outwash, ice-contact, and ice-disintegration sand and gravel, is highly productive and is in many areas in hydraulic contact with the Cohocton River. Potential well yields range 50 to more than 1,000 gallons per minute. Most of the aquifer is under shallow...

Interpolating water-table altitudes in west-central Kansas using kriging techniques
L. E. Dunlap, Joseph M. Spinazola
1984, Water Supply Paper 2238
Kriging is a regionalization technique that incorporates the autocorrelation between known data values in its estimation of values at unmeasured sites. This technique is reproducible, accepts irregularly spaced data, uses only measured values closely surrounding points at which values are estimated, is an exact interpolator at measured data points, and...
