Summary of the hydrology of the Floridan aquifer system in Florida and in parts of Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama
Richard H. Johnston, Peter W. Bush
1988, Professional Paper 1403-A
The Floridan aquifer system is one of the major sources of ground-water supplies in the United States. This highly productive aquifer system underlies all of Florida, southern Georgia, and small parts of adjoining Alabama and South Carolina, for a total area of about 100,000 square miles. About 3 billion gallons...
Evaluation of the ground-water resources of the lower Susquehanna River basin, Pennsylvania and Maryland
James M. Gerhart, George J. Lazorchick
1988, Water Supply Paper 2284
Ground water in the 3,458-square-mile lower Susquehanna River basin occupies secondary openings in bedrock. The distribution of openings is a function of lithology, depth, and topography. Local flow systems account for most of the total ground-water flow. Average annual recharge for the lower basin is 1,857 million gallons per day,...
Tritium migration from a low-level radioactive-waste disposal site near Chicago, Illinois
J.R. Nicholas, R. W. Healy
1988, Water Supply Paper 2333
This paper describes the results of a study to determine the geologic and hydrologic factors that control migration of tritium from a closed, low-level radioactive-waste disposal site. The disposal site, which operated from 1943 to mid1949, contains waste generated by research activities at the world's first nuclear reactors. Tritium has...
Simulation of flow in the Edwards Aquifer, San Antonio region, Texas, and refinement of storage and flow concepts
Robert W. Maclay, Larry F. Land
1988, Water Supply Paper 2336-A
The Edwards aquifer is a complexly faulted, carbonate aquifer lying within the Balcones fault zone of south-central Texas. The aquifer consists of thin- to massive-bedded limestone and dolomite, most of which is in the form of mudstones and wackestones. Well-developed secondary porosity has formed in association with former erosional surfaces...
Leachate migration from an in-situ oil-shale retort near Rock Springs, Wyoming
Kent C. Glover
1988, Water Supply Paper 2322
Hydrogeologic factors influencing leachate movement from an in-situ oil-shale retort near Rock Springs, Wyoming, were investigated through models of ground-water flow and solute transport. Leachate, indicated by the conservative ion thiocyanate, has been observed ? mile downgradient from the retort. The contaminated aquifer is part of the Green River Formation...
Bottom sediments and nutrients in the tidal Potomac system, Maryland and Virginia
Jerry L. Glenn
1988, Water Supply Paper 2234-F
The characteristics and distributions of near-surface bottom sediments and of nutrients in the sediments provide information on modern sediment and nutrient sources, sedimentation environments, and geochemical reactions in the tidal Potomac system, Maryland and Virginia. This information is fundamental to an improved understanding of sedimentation and eutrophication problems in the...
Seismicity map of the state of Colorado
C. W. Stover, B.G. Reagor, S. T. Algermissen
1988, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 2036
This map is one of a series of seismicity maps produced by the U.S. Geological Survey that show earthquake data of individual states or groups of states at the scale of 1:1,000,000.  This map shows only those earthquakes with epicenters located within the boundaries of Colorado, even though earthquakes in...
Volatilization of benzene and eight alkyl-substituted benzene compounds from water
R. E. Rathbun, D. Y. Tai
1988, Water Supply Paper 2342
Predicting the fate of organic compounds in streams and rivers often requires knowledge of the volatilization characteristics of the compounds. The reference-substance concept, involving laboratory-determined ratios of the liquid-film coefficients for volatilization of the organic compounds to the liquid-film coefficient for oxygen absorption, is used to predict liquid-film coefficients for...
Water resources data for Mississippi, water year 1987
E.J. Tharpe, M.L. Plunkett, F. Morris, W. T. Oakley
1988, Water Data Report MS-87-1
Water resources data for the 1987 water year for Mississippi consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground-water wells. This report contains records of water discharge at 78 gaging stations; stage...
