Preliminary study of the water-temperature regime of the North Santiam River downstream from Detroit and Big Cliff dams, Oregon
Antonius Laenen
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4105
A riverine-temperature model and associated data-collection system were developed to help the Corps of engineers determine cost benefits of selective-withdrawal structures for future use with dams on the Willamette River System. A U.S. Geological Survey Lagrangian reference frame, digital computer model was used to simulate stream temperatures on the North...
Quality of water and bed material in streams of Logan Township, Gloucester County, New Jersey, 1984
J. J. Hochreiter, Jane Kozinski
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4300
The surface water and surficial-bed material at seven stations on three streams in Logan Township, Gloucester County, New Jersey, were sampled in the fall of 1984. Samples of water were analyzed for volatile organic compounds, trace metals, and organochlorine and organophosphorous compounds. Surficial-bed material was analyzed for extractable trace metals...

An evaluation of the crest-stage gage program in Louisiana
R.A. Herbert, D.D. Carlson, G.J. Wiche
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4204
The crest-stage gage program in Louisiana was evaluated to determine if the data were adequate for use in developing regional flood-frequency equations and to determine if any crest-stage gages could be discontinued. An abundance of data at many crest-stage stations and a lack of data for urban area and flat-slope...
Cost effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Louisiana
R.A. Herbert, D.D. Carlson
1985, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4044
This report documents the results of a study of the cost effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Louisiana. Data uses and funding sources were identified for the 68 continuous-record stream gages currently (1984) in operation with a budget of $408,700. Three stream gages have uses specific to a short-term study...
Distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls in the Housatonic River and adjacent aquifer, Massachusetts
Frederick B. Gay, Michael H. Frimpter
1985, Water Supply Paper 2266
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) are sorbed to the fine-grained stream-bottom sediments along the Housatonic River from Pittsfield, Massachusetts, southward to the Massachusetts-Connecticut boundary. The highest PCB concentrations, up to 140,000 micrograms per kilogram, were found in samples of bottom material from a reach of the river between Pittsfield and Woods Pond...

Geohydrology and model analysis of stream-aquifer system along the Arkansas River in Kearny and Finney Counties, southwestern Kansas
L. E. Dunlap, Richard J. Lindgren, C. G. Sauer
1985, Water Supply Paper 2253
A study was made, in cooperation with the Division of Water Resources, Kansas State Board of Agriculture, to determine geohydrologic conditions in an area comprising nearly 850,000 acres along the Arkansas River valley in Kearny and Finney Counties, southwestern Kansas. The Arkansas River meanders atop and interacts hydraulically with the...

Streamflow and suspended-sediment discharge from two small watersheds in southwestern Wyoming and northeastern Utah, 1984
L.W. Lenfest Jr., B. H. Ringen
1985, Open-File Report 85-161
Accelerated erosion due to mineral exploration and production in southwestern Wyoming has caused concern that the streams will transport excess sediment in these areas. Two adjacent drainage basins with different levels of development were studied to determine the effects of minerals development on water quality. A high level of minerals...
