Hydraulic and sediment characteristics at the North Channel Bridge, Jamaica Bay, New York
W. W. Staubitz, S.W. Wolcott
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4085
Data were collected during the spring of 1984 in the vicinity of North Channel Bridge in Jamaica Bay, New York to define the hydraulic regime and the physical characteristics and chemical quality of bottom sediments. The data were used in a semiquantitative analysis to predict the effects of bridge replacement...

1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4145
Bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus), pumpkinseed sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus), largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), yellow perch (Perca flavescens) rock bass (Amploplites rupestris), black crappie (Pomozis nigromaculatus), and northern pike (Esox lucius) were found in Williams Lake, Hubbard County, Minnesota, during a fishery survey of the lake in late August 1982. The most abundant...
Measurement of discharge using tracers
F. A. Kilpatrick, Ernest D. Cobb
1985, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A16
The development of fluorescent dyes and fluorometers that can measure these dyes at very low concentrations has made dye-dilution methods practical for measuring discharge. These methods are particularly useful for determining discharge under certain flow conditions that are unfavorable for current meter measurements. These include small streams, canals, and pipes...
Geochemical controls on dissolved sodium in basalt aquifers of the Columbia Plateau, Washington
P.P. Hearn, W.C. Steinkampf, Gilbert C. Bortleson, B. W. Drost
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4304
Miocene basaltic aquifers of the Columbia Plateau are the principal source of water for agricultural, domestic, and municipal use in Washington State. Irrigation with groundwaters with relatively high sodium concentrations has been cause for concern in recent years, because of the tendency of such waters to reduce soil permeability. Chemical...

Geohydrology of rocks penetrated by test well USW H-4, Yucca Mountain, Nye County, Nevada
M.S. Whitfield, E.P. Eshom, William Thordarson, D. H. Schaefer
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4030
Test well USW H-4 is one of several wells drilled in the southwestern part of the Nevada Test Site for hydraulic testing, hydrologic monitoring, and geophysical logging. The work was performed in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy. The rocks penetrated by the well to a total depth of...
Acoustic velocity meter systems
Antonius Laenen
1985, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A17
Acoustic velocity meter (AVM) systems operate on the principles that the point-to-point upstream traveltime of an acoustic pulse is longer than the downstream traveltime and that this difference in traveltime can be accurately measured by electronic devices. An AVM system is capable of recording water velocity (and discharge) under a...

Analyses of flood-flow frequency for selected gaging stations in South Dakota
R.D. Benson, E.B. Hoffman, V.J. Wipf
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4217
Analyses of flood flow frequency were made for 111 continuous-record gaging stations in South Dakota with 10 or more years of record. The analyses were developed using the log-Pearson Type III procedure recommended by the U.S. Water Resources Council. The procedure characterizes flood occurrence at a single site as a...

Low flows and flow duration of Tennessee streams through 1981
R.H. Bingham
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4347
Estimates of low-flow characteristics and flow duration for the period of record at continuous-record streamflow gages are essential in hydrologic studies and water-resources management. This report provides estimates of low flow for 1, 3, 7, 14, 30, 60, and 90 consecutive days for recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10 ,...
Geochemical survey of the Devil's Den Roadless Area, Rutland and Windsor counties, Vermont

The purpose of this study is to interpret a relationship between the stratigraphy and the environment of deposition of the upper part of the Fort Union Formation in the TA Hills in the western part of the Powder River Basin, Johnson County, Wyoming. This framework was used to map and...
Low-flow characteristics of streams in the Kishwaukee River basin, Illinois
Howard E. Allen Jr., Ellen A. Cowan
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4311
Seven-day, 2-year, and 7-day, 10-year natural low flows are estimated at five continuous-record gaging stations based on streamflow records and records of wastewater effluent furnished by treatment plants. Low flows are also estimated at 22 partial-record stations by relating natural low-flow estimates for long-term stations to discharge measurements at partial-record...
