Quality assurance practices for the chemical and biological analyses of water and fluvial sediments
Linda C. Friedman, David E. Erdmann
1982, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 05-A6
This chapter contains practices used by the U.S. Geological Survey to assure the quality of analytical data for water, fluvial sediment, and aquatic organisms. These practices are directed primarily toward personnel making water quality measurements. Some detail specific quality control techniques, others document quality assurance procedures being used by the...
Program for evaluating stream quality in North Carolina
Hugh B. Wilder, Clyde E. Simmons
1982, Water Supply Paper 2185-A
The design and objectives of the program for evaluating stream quality in North Carolina are described. Using water-quality and streamflow data collected since the 1940?s, a study is underway to define certain variations in water quality, to quantify the effects of man?s activities on water quality, and to determine long-term...

Water-quality assessment of Steiner Branch basin, Lafayette County, Wisconsin
Stephen J. Field, R.A. Lidwin
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-52
Steiner Branch basin in southwestern Wisconsin has rugged mature topography. Corn is planted in 30 percent of the basin on slopes ranging from 0 to 20 percent. Although contour stripcropping is a recommended practice for these easily eroded soil slopes, few conservation practices are followed to reduce soil losses. Because...
Water quality of the French Broad River, North Carolina — An analysis of data collected at Marshall, 1958-1977
C. C. Daniel III, Hugh B. Wilder, M. S. Weiner
1982, Water Supply Paper 2185-C
An investigation of water quality in the French Broad River in North Carolina has resulted in the definition of variations in water quality, a determination of the degree to which the quality of water in the river has been affected by man 's activities, and an analysis of trends in...
Ground-water pumpage in Nassau County, Long Island, New York, 1920-77: Introduction and user's guide to the data compilation
Chabot Kilburn
1982, Open-File Report 81-499
Pumpage data from about 2,100 wells used for public and nonpublic water-supply in Nassau County from 1920-77 have been collected and are available for public inspection at the U.S. Geological Survey office in Syosset, Nassau County. Except for wells in use before 1920, these data constitute the entire record available...
Habitat Suitability Index Models: Brook trout
Robert F. Raleigh
1982, FWS/OBS 82/10.24
The habitat use information and Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) models presented in this document are an aid for impact assessment and habitat management activities. Literature concerning a species' habitat requirements and preferences is reviewed and then synthesized into HSI models, which are scaled to produce an index between 0 (unsuitable...

Low-flow characteristics and flow duration of New Jersey streams
B.D. Gillespie, R.D. Schopp
1982, Open-File Report 81-1110
Low-flow frequency and flow-duration data for 400 continuous-record and partial-record gaging stations in New Jersey are tabulated in this report. The amount of data analyzed at each site varies from the complete daily discharge record for continuous-record gaging stations, some of which have been in operation for over 50 years,...

Habitat suitability index models: Coastal stocks of striped bass
Mark B. Bain, Jane L. Bain
1982, FWS/OBS 82/10.1
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop estuarine habitat models for coastal stocks of striped bass (Morone saxatilis). Models for five life stages are scaled to produce an index of habitat suitability between 0 (unsuitable habitat) and 1 (optimally suitable habitat) for estuarine areas of the...

High-resolution seismic-reflection profiles collected aboard R/V James M. Gilliss Cruise GS-7903-3, over the Atlantic Continental Slope and Rise off New England
Norman G. Bailey, John M. Aaron
1982, Open-File Report 82-718
During June 1979, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected 4,032 km of single-channel seismic-reflection data from the Atlantic Continental Slope and Rise off New England. The work was conducted aboard R/V JAMES M. GILLISS (cruise GS-7903-3). The purpose of the cruise was to determine the characteristics of mass sediment movement...
Evaluation of the streamflow-data program in Pennsylvania
Herbert N. Flippo Jr.
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-21
The stream-gaging program in Pennsylvania is subject to budgetary constraints in the next several years. Elimination of those gaging stations that have no current-purpose use and little utility in providing regional flow-characteristic information is the most effective way to reduce costs. The efficient design of a network of gaging stations for obtaining regional information...
