Quality of the Arkansas River and irrigation-return flows in the lower Arkansas River Valley, Colorado
Doug Cain
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4273
Irrigation-return flows in the lower Arkansas River valley of Colorado were investigated using one-time data at 59 sites, monthly data at 4 sites, and intensive data in a small irrigated area. Specific conductance of return flows increased downstream, paralleling specific conductance of irrigation water. During July 1977, Arkansas River streamflow...

Effects of coal mining on the water quality and sedimentation of Lake Tuscaloosa and selected tributaries, North River basin, Alabama
E. F. Cole
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4310
Lake Tuscaloosa, a reservoir on North River, is the primary source of water supply for the city of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and surrounding areas. Between October 1982 and September 1983, 14 sites in the North River basin were sampled to determine if surface coal mining has impacted the quality of water...
The flood of December 1982 and the 100- and 500-year flood on the Buffalo River, Arkansas
B.L. Neely
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4192
Flood profiles, peak discharges, and stages were determined for the December 1982, the 100-year, and the 500-year floods at 17 sites along the Buffalo River, Arkansas. Typical synthetic stage hydrographs for the 100- and 500-year floods were determined for each site. Flow duration data for gaging stations at St. Joe...

Estimating average base flow at low-flow partial-record stations on the south shore of Long Island, New York
H. T. Buxton
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4240
Base flows of the 29 major streams in southeast Nassau and southwest Suffolk Counties, New York, were statistically analyzed to discern the correlation among flows of adjacent streams. Concurrent base-flow data from a partial-record and a nearby continuous-record station were related; the data were from 1968-75, a period near hydrologic...

Potentiometric surface and water quality in the Principal Aquifer, Mississippian Plateaus region, Kentucky
R. O. Plebuch, R.J. Faust, M.A. Townsend
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4102
The Mississippian Plateaus region is the outcrop area of rocks of Mississippian age which extends as a broad arcuate band around the Western Coal Field in westcentral Kentucky. Much of the area is characterized by plains of low relief containing numerous sinkholes, subsurface drainage, and a low density of surface...
Water resources data, Washington, water year 1982: Vol. 1 - Western Washington
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1985, Water Data Report WA-82-1
Water resources data for the 1982 water year for Washington consist of records of stage discharge, and water quality of streams; stage. contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of wells and springs. This report, in two volumes contains discharge records for 253...

Proposed work plan for the study of hydrologic effects of ground-water development in the Wet Mountain Valley, Colorado
S. G. Robson
1985, Open-File Report 84-866
Large-scale development of groundwater resources in the Wet Mountain Valley, Colorado, could adversely affect other water rights in the valley or in the Arkansas River Basin. Such infringement on senior water rights could severely limit development of additional water supplies in the valley. A work plan is presented for a...

Hydrology of the alluvial, buried channel, basal Pleistocene and Dakota aquifers in west-central Iowa
D. L. Runkle
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4239
A ground-water resources investigation in west-central Iowa indicates that water is available from alluvial, buried channel, basal Pleistocene, and Dakota aquifers. The west-central Iowa area includes Audubon, Carrol1, Crawford, Greene, Guthrie, Harrison, Monona, and Shelby Counties. Nine alluvial aquifers consisting of sand and gravel are in the valleys of the Little...

Most of the references on borehole geophysics that are relevant to ground-water hydrology are contained in this bibliography, but it does not include every reference that is available under each subject heading; the literature is much too extensive to compile a complete listing. Some of the references may appear under...
Discharge ratings for control gates at Mississippi River Lock and Dam 14, Le Claire, Iowa
A.J. Heinitz
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4261
The water level of the navigation pools on the Mississippi River are maintained by the operation of tainter and roller gates at the locks and dams. Discharge ratings for the gates on Lock and Dam 14, at Le Claire, Iowa, were developed from current-meter discharge measurements made in the forebays...
