Suspended sediment in Minnesota streams
L. H. Tornes
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4312
Suspended-sediment samples have been collected by the U.S. Geological Survey from 115 sites on Minnesota streams since October 1960. Data from 42 sites were sufficient for characterizing sediment concentrations and yields. Average concentrations ranged from 4.4 milligrams per liter on the Baptism River in northeastern Minnesota to 190 milligrams per...
Quality-assurance results for field pH and specific-conductance measurements, and for laboratory analysis, National Atmospheric Deposition Program and National Trends Network; January 1980-September 1984
L.J. Schroder, M. H. Brooks, B.A. Malo, T. C. Willoughby
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4139
Five intersite comparison studies for the field determination of pH and specific conductance, using simulated-precipitation samples, were conducted by the U.S.G.S. for the National Atmospheric Deposition Program and National Trends Network. These comparisons were performed to estimate the precision of pH and specific conductance determinations made by sampling-site operators. Simulated-precipitation...
Base-flow measurements at partial-record sites on small streams in South Carolina
Carroll Barker
1986, Open-File Report 86-143
This report contains site descriptions and base-flow data collected at 362 partial-record sites in South Carolina. These data include site name, site description, latitude, longitude, drainage area, instantaneous streamflow, and date of the streamflow measurement. The base-flow data can be used as an aid to estimate low flow characteristics at...
Ground-water flow in Melton Valley, Oak Ridge reservation, Roane County, Tennessee; preliminary model analysis
Patrick Tucci
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4221
Shallow land burial of low-level radioactive waste has been practiced since 1951 in Melton Valley. Groundwater flow modeling was used to better understand the geohydrology of the valley, and to provide a foundation for future contaminant transport modeling. The three-dimensional, finite difference model simulates the aquifer as a two layer...
Quality of ground water in southeastern and south-central Washington, 1982
G. L. Turney
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4262
In 1982 groundwater was sampled at over 100 sites in the southeastern-south central region of Washington and analyzed for pH, specific conductance, and concentrations of fecal-coliform bacteria, major dissolved irons, and dissolved iron, manganese, and nitrate. Twenty percent of the samples were analyzed for concentrations of dissolved aluminum, arsenic, barium,...
Water quality of selected lakes in Mount Rainier National Park, Washington with respect to lake acidification
G. L. Turney, N. P. Dion, S. S. Sumioka
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4254
Thirteen lakes in Mount Rainier National Park were evaluated for general chemical characteristics, sensitivity to acidification by acidic precipitation, and degree of existing acidification. The lakes studies were Allen, one of the Chenuis group, Crescent , Crystal, Eleanor, Fan, one of the Golden group, Marsh, Mowich, Mystic, Shriner, and two...
Plan of study for the Regional Aquifer-System Analysis, Columbia Plateau, Washington, northern Oregon, and northwestern Idaho
J. J. Vaccaro
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4151
The U.S. Geological Survey began a 4-year study of the regional aquifer system underlying the Columbia Plateau, in central and eastern Washington, northern Oregon, and northwestern Idaho in October 1983, as part of the Regional Aquifer System Analysis program. The study will describe the geohydrology, geochemistry, and quality of water...
Simulation of streamflow temperatures in the Yakima River basin, Washington, April-October 1981
J. J. Vaccaro
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4232
The effects of storage, diversion, return flow, and meteorological variables on water temperature in the Yakima River, in Washington State, were simulated, and the changes in water temperature that could be expected under four alternative-management scenarios were examined for improvement in anadromous fish environment. A streamflow routing model and Lagrangian...
Ground-water data for the Hanna and Carbon basins, south-central Wyoming, through 1980
P. B. Daddow
1986, Open-File Report 85-628
Groundwater resources in the Hanna and Carbon Basins of Wyoming were assessed in a study from 1974 through 1980 because of the development of coal mining in the area. Data collected from 105 wells during that study, including well-completion records, lithologic logs, and water levels, are presented. The data are...
Water resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey, Mid-Atlantic District, 1984-1986
L. J. McGreevy, G.J. Hyatt, E.J. Cockey
1986, Open-File Report 86-490
The Mid-Atlantic District of the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, includes the States of Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia and the District of Columbia. The water resources program of the Mid-Atlantic District is conducted from offices located at seven sites in the three states. The program consists of two elements:...
Statistical analyses of flood frequency, low-flow frequency, and flow duration of streams in the Philadelphia Area, Pennsylvania
Andrew Voytik
1986, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4008
Flood frequency, low-flow frequency, and flow-duration characteristics were computed for 26 stream-gaging stations in and near Philadelphia. Data were obtained from 21 continuous-recording stations and five stations that were initially continuous-recording stations, but which were subsequently converted to crest-stage stations. The annual peak flows were fitted to the three-parameter log-Pearson...
Water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in New Mexico, fiscal year 1986
R. L. Knutilla (compiler)
1986, Open-File Report 86-141
All U.S. Geological Survey hydrologic investigations in the New Mexico District in progress during fiscal year 1986 are summarized. The summaries include sections on the problem addressed, the objective and approach of the investigation, progress of the investigation and plans for 1986 fiscal year, and reports published as a result...
