Simulated effects of surface coal mining and agriculture on dissolved solids in the Redwater River, east-central Montana
R. F. Ferreira, J. H. Lambing
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4180
Dissolved solids concentrations in five reaches of the Redwater River in east-central Montana were simulated to evaluate the effects of surface coal mining and agriculture. A mass-balance model of streamflow and dissolved solids load developed for the Tongue River in southeastern Montana was modified and applied to the Redwater River....
