Ground-water hydrology of the Mormon Island Crane Meadows wildlife area near Grand Island, Hall County, Nebraska
R. Theodore Hurr
1981, Open-File Report 81-1109
The Platte River in south-central Nebraska flows generally eastward in a broad, flat valley. The river banks and many areas adjacent to the river support thick stands of cottonwood and willow trees. Brush, grass, pasture land, and cultivated fields occupy most of the remaining area. This is the habitat for...
Hydrogeology of well-field areas near Tampa, Florida; Phase I, development and documentation of a two-dimensional finite-difference model for simulation of steady-state ground-water flow
C. B. Hutchinson, Dale M. Johnson, James M. Gerhart
1981, Open-File Report 81-630
A two-dimensional finite-difference model was developed for simulation of steady-state ground-water flow in the Floridan aquifer throughout a 932-square-mile area, which contains nine municipal well fields. The overlying surficial aquifer contains a constant-head water table and is coupled to the Floridan aquifer by a leakage term that represents flow through...

1981, Open-File Report 81-143
A 2-year study of the aquatic biota in the Redwood Creek and Mill Creek drainage basins of Redwood National Park indicated that the aquatic productivity is low. Densities of coliform bacteria were low except in Prairie Creek, a tributary to Redwood Creek, where a State park, county fish hatchery, grazing...

Fluoride concentrations in water from four principal coastal plain aquifer systems, South Carolina
Phillip W. Johnson, James M. Rhett
1981, Open-File Report 81-140
Ample supplies of ground water are available throughout most of the Coastal Plain of South Carolina, but in many places the fluoride concentrations far exceed (as high as 5.8 mg/L, milligrams per liter) the MCL (maximum concentration limit) established for drinking water by the EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) and...
Pattern-recognition program modified and applied to southeastern United States seismicity

1981, Open-File Report 81-195
The pattern-recognition technique of Bongard and others (1966), Gelfand and others (1976), and Briggs and others (1977) was modified and applied in Southeastern United States to try to detect combinations or interactions of geologic, geophysical, and topographic parameters characteristic of areas with moderate and large earthquakes. The modification involved replacing...

Peak horizontal acceleration and velocity from strong motion records including records from the 1979 Imperial Valley, California, earthquake
William B. Joyner, David M. Boore, Ronald L. Porcella
1981, Open-File Report 81-365
We have taken advantage of the recent increase in strong-motion data at close distances to derive new attenuation relations for peak horizontal acceleration and velocity. Acceleration data from 183 recordings of 24 earthquakes and velocity data from 62 recordings of 10 earthquakes have been used. This new analysis uses a...

Quality of water and time of travel in Goodwater and Okatoma Creeks near Magee, Mississippi
Stephen J. Kalkhoff
1981, Open-File Report 81-1012
An intensive quality-of-water study was conducted during a period of generally low streamflow in Goodwater and Okatoma Creeks near Magee, Miss. During the August 12-14, 1980, study, the mean specific conductance of the water at all sites was less than 59 micromhos per centimeter; the dissolved-oxygen concentrations were greater than...
Quality of water and time of travel in Little Copiah Creek near Crystal Springs, Mississippi

1981, Open-File Report 81-1069
An intensive quality of water study was conducted on Little Copiah Creek in the vicinity of Crystal Springs, Miss., from August 19 to August 21, 1980. The quality of water in Little Copiah Creek improved 7 miles downstream of a source of wastewater inflow. The mean total nitrogen concentration decreased...
