Calibration of a dissolved-solids model for the Yampa River basin between Steamboat Springs and Maybell, northwestern Colorado
R. S. Parker, D. W. Litke
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4190
The cumulative effects of changes in dissolved solids from a number of coal mines are needed to evaluate effects on downstream water use. A model for determining cumulative effects of streamflow, dissolved-solids concentration, and dissolved-solids load was calibrated for the Yampa River and its tributaries in northwestern Colorado. The model...

Ground-water hydrology of the Toppenish Creek basin, Yakima Indian Reservation, Washington
J.A. Skrivan
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4010
A groundwater flow model was constructed for the Toppenish Creek basin aquifer system in eastern Washington. Flow was simulated in three aquifer units: (1) the confined old valley fill and shallow basalt (unit 2); (2) the underlying primary basalt (unit 3); and (3) the deep basalt (unit 4). Water levels...

Relation between ground water and surface water in the Hillsborough River basin, west-central Florida
R. M. Wolansky, T. H. Thompson
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4010
The relation between groundwater and surface water in the Hillsborough River basin was defined through the use of: seismic-reflection profiling along selected reaches of the Hillsborough River, and evaluation of streamflow, rainfall, groundwater levels, water quality, and geologic data. Major municipal well fields in the basin are Morris Bridge and...

Analytically-derived sensitivities in one-dimensional models of solute transport in porous media
D.S. Knopman
1987, Open-File Report 86-605
Analytically-derived sensitivities are presented for parameters in one-dimensional models of solute transport in porous media. Sensitivities were derived by direct differentiation of closed form solutions for each of the odel, and by a time integral method for two of the models. Models are based on the advection-dispersion equation and include...
