Summary of hydrologic data for the San Gabriel River basin and Edwards Aquifer, Georgetown area, Texas, water year 1988
Larry F. Land, M.E. Dorsey
1989, Open-File Report 89-226
The Edwards aquifer is the principle source of freshwater for municipal, domestic, and industrial users in the Georgetown area. Other sources of freshwater are the streams draining the San Gabriel River basin and Lake Georgetown. Lake Georgetown, located on the North Fork San Gabriel River west of Georgetown, is a...

Hydrologic and water-quality characteristics of a Wetland receiving wastewater effluent in St. Joseph, Minnesota
Rob G. Brown, James R. Stark
1989, Wetlands (9) 191-206
Hydrologic and water-quality characteristics were determined for a wetland being used for tertiary treatment of wastewater in St. Joseph, Minnesota. The wetland consists of spruce-tamarack fen and a cattail marsh, with the wastewater being discharged into the fen, and the fen draining into the marsh. The wetland is underlain by...
Evaluation of inflow to Mirror Lake, New Hampshire
T. C. Winter, J.S. Eaton, G.E. Likens
1989, Journal of the American Water Resources Association (25) 991-1008
Measured stream discharge plus calculated ground water discharge (total measured runoff) were compared with runoff calculated by the unit-runoff method for the two largest watersheds of Mirror Lake for 1981–1983. Runoff calculated by the unit-runoff method, using Hubbard Brook watershed 3 as the index watershed, was greater than the total...
Riparian ecosystem creation and restoration: a literature summary
Karen M. Manci
1989, Report
Riparian ecosystems generally compose a minor proportion of surrounding areas, but typically are more structurally diverse and more productive in plant and animal biomass than adjacent upland areas. Riparian areas supply food, cover, and water (especially important in the arid West) for a large diversity of animals, and serve as migration routes and forest...
Selenate reduction to elemental selenium by anaerobic bacteria in sediments and culture: Biogeochemical significance of a novel, sulfate-independent respiration
Ronald S. Oremland, James T. Hollibaugh, Ann S. Maest, Theresa S. Presser, Laurence G. Miller, Charles W. Culbertson
1989, Applied and Environmental Microbiology (55) 2333-2343
Interstitial water profiles of SeO42−, SeO32−, SO42−, and Cl− in anoxic sediments indicated removal of the seleno-oxyanions by a near-surface process unrelated to sulfate reduction. In sediment slurry experiments, a complete reductive removal of SeO42− occurred under anaerobic conditions, was more rapid with H2 or acetate, and was inhibited by O2, NO3−, MnO2,...
Correspondence between vegetation and soils in wetlands and nearby uplands
Michael L. Scott, William L. Slauson, Charles A. Segelquist, Gregor T. Auble
1989, Wetlands (9) 41-60
The association between vegetation and soils from a geographically broad sampling of wetlands and adjoining uplands is reported for 38 hydric and 26 nonhydric soils, as recognized in the hydric soils list of the Soil Conservation Service. Wetlands represented in the study include estuaries, pitcher plant bogs, prairie depressional wetlands,...
Stream temperature investigations: field and analytic methods
J.M. Bartholow
1989, Report
This document provides guidance to the user of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Stream Network Temperature Model (SNTEMP). Planning a temperature study is discussed in terms of understanding the management objectives and ensuring that the questions will be accurately answered with the modeling approach being used. A sensitivity analysis of...

Regression models for estimating urban storm-runoff quality and quantity in the United States
N. E. Driver, B.M. Troutman
1989, Journal of Hydrology (109) 221-236
Urban planners and managers need information about the local quantity of precipitation and the quality and quantity of storm runoff if they are to plan adequately for the effects of storm runoff from urban areas. As result of this need, linear regression models were developed for the estimation of storm-runoff...
Snow cover of the Upper Colorado River Basin from satellite passive microwave and visual imagery
E.G. Josberger, E. Beauvillain
1989, Nordic Hydrology (20) 73-84
A comparison of passive microwave images from the Nimbus-7 Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) and visual images from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) of the Upper Colorado River Basin shows that passive microwave satellite imagery can be used to determine the extent of the snow cover. Eight cloud-free DMSP...
Irrigation-induced contamination--How real a problem
Jonathan P. Deason
1989, Journal on Irrigation Drainage Engineering (115)
The U.S. Department of the Interior has embarked on a series of reconnaissance‐level investigations throughout the western states to identify, evaluate, and respond to irrigation‐induced water quality problems. A series of water, sediment, and biological samples are being analyzed for 17 inorganic constituents and a number of pesticides. 19 studies...

Hydrological, morphometrical, and biological characteristics of the connecting rivers of the International Great Lakes: a review

D.P. Dodge, editor(s)
1989, Book, Proceedings of the International Large River Symposium
The connecting channels of the Great Lakes are large rivers (1, 200-9, 900 m3 • s-1) with limited tributary drainage systems and relatively stable hydrology (about 2:1 ration of maximum to minimum flow). The rivers, from headwaters to outlet, are the St. Marys, St. Clair, Detroit, Niagara, and St. Lawrence....
Transport and degradation of water-soluble creosote-derived compounds

1989, Book chapter, Intermedia pollutant transport: Modeling and field measurements
Creosote is the most extensively used insecticide and industrial wood preservative today. It is estimated that there are more than 600 wood-preserving plants in the United States, and their collective use of creosote exceeds 4.5xl06 kg/yr (von Rumker et al., 1975). Creosote is a complex mixture of more than...
