1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4017
The U.S. Geological Survey conducted a coal-hydrology monitoring program in coal-field areas of central and southern Utah during August 1978-September 1984 to determine possible hydrologic impacts of future mining and to provide a better understanding of the hydrologic systems of the coal resource areas monitored. Data were collected at 19...
Description and comparison of selected models for hydrologic analysis of ground-water flow, St. Joseph River basin, Indiana
J. G. Peters
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4199
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) is developing water-management policies designed to assess the effects of irrigation and other water uses on water supply in the basin. In support of this effort, the USGS, in cooperation with IDNR, began a study to evaluate appropriate methods for analyzing the effects...
Water quality of Fremont Lake and New Fork Lakes, western Wyoming: A progress report
D. A. Peterson, R. C. Averett, K. L. Mora
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4016
Fremont Lake and New Fork Lakes in the New Fork River drainage of western Wyoming were selected for a comprehensive study of hydrologic processes affecting mountain lakes in the Rocky Mountains. Information is needed about lakes in this area to assess their response to existing and planned development. The concerns...
Hydrogeology and water quality of areas with persistent ground-water contamination near Blackfoot, Bingham County, Idaho
D. J. Parliman
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4150
The Groveland-Collins area near Blackfoot, Idaho, has a history of either periodic or persistent localized groundwater contamination. Water users in the area report offensive smell, metallic taste, rust deposits, and bacteria in water supplies. During 1984 and 1985, data were collected to define regional and local geologic, hydrologic, and groundwater...
Hydrology and chemistry of selected prairie wetlands in the Cottonwood Lake area, Stutsman County, North Dakota, 1979-82
J. W. LaBaugh, T. C. Winter, V. A. Adomaitis, G.A. Swanson
1987, Professional Paper 1431
The relation of hydrologic setting and temporal variability in hydrology to nutrient content and geochemical characteristics of a group of prairie wetlands and adjacent ground water was studied during the period 1979-82. Although data were collected from many wetlands and wells at the study site, emphasis in this report primarily...
Estimation of the recharge area contributing water to a pumped well in a glacial-drift, river-valley aquifer
D. J. Morrissey
1987, Open-File Report 86-543
The highly permeable, unconfined, glacial drift aquifers that occupy most New England river valleys constitute the principal source of drinking water for many communities that obtain part or all of their public water supply from groundwater. Analytical , two-dimensional numerical and three-dimensional numerical models were used to delineate contributing areas...
Preprocessor and postprocessor computer programs for a radial-flow finite-element model
A. A. Pucci Jr., D. A. Pope
1987, Open-File Report 87-680
Preprocessing and postprocessing computer programs that enhance the utility of the U.S. Geological Survey radial-flow model have been developed. The preprocessor program: (1) generates a triangular finite element mesh from minimal data input, (2) produces graphical displays and tabulations of data for the mesh , and (3) prepares an input...
Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston metropolitan area, Texas, 1984
Fred Liscum, J.P. Bruchmiller, D. W. Brown, E.M. Paul
1987, Open-File Report 86-608
Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. Studies are now in progress in the Austin and Houston areas, and have been completed in the Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio areas. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Houston, began...
Surface-water hydrology of the Little Black River basin, Missouri and Arkansas, before water-land improvement practices
W.R. Berkas, Suzanne R. Femmer, T. O. Mesko, B. W. Thompson
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4076
The U. S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service, in accordance with Public Law 566, is implementing various types of water-land improvement practices in the Little Black River basin in southeastern Missouri. These practices are designed, in part, to decrease the suspended sediment (SS) transport in the basin, decrease flood...
Area of influence and zone of contribution to superfund-site wells G and H, Woburn, Massachusetts
C. F. Myette, J.C. Olimpio, D.G. Johnson
1987, Water-Resources Investigations Report 87-4100
Groundwater contamination by chlorinated volatile organic compounds detected by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Quality Engineering in 1979 forced the closing of public supply wells G and H in the City of Woburn, MA. The EPA has ranked the wells G and H site on the National Priorities List as...
