A preliminary appraisal of the effects of agriculture on stream quality in southwest Georgia
Dean B. Radtke, James B. McConnell, William P. Carey
1980, Open-File Report 80-771
Water—quality and suspended—sediment samples were collected in two basins in southwest Georgia to determine whether water—quality problems have resulted from agricultural practices. Samples were collected monthly and during periods of storm runoff from December 1976 through July 1978. Concentrations of chemical constituents relevant to agricultural practices were found to be...
A preliminary summary of regional geology, petroleum potential, environmental geology, and technology for exploration and development for proposed OCS lease sale no. 75, northern Aleutian Shelf, Bering Sea, Alaska
Michael S. Marlow, Hugh McLean, Alan K. Cooper, Tracy Vallier, James V. Gardner, Robert McMullin, M.B. Lynch
1980, Open-File Report 80-653
This report provides a preliminary assessment of the regional geology, petroleum potential, environmental geology, and technology for development of possible oil and gas in that section of the southeastern Bering Sea, known as the Northern Aleutian Shelf, and proposed as OCS Lease Sale area #75. This summary report is in...
Ground-water availability near Fort Wayne, Allen County, Indiana
Michael Planert
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-34
A 3-year study to determine the groundwater potential of confined glacial aquifers in a large part of Allen County, Ind., was begun in July 1974 by the U.S. Geological Survey. Mapping of outwash sands and gravels delineated two distinct layers of sand and gravel in the southern and eastern parts...
Field data describing the movement and storage of sediment in the East Fork River, Wyoming: Part II, Bed elevations, 1979
Robert H. Meade, Robert M. Myrick, William W. Emmett
1980, Open-File Report 80-1190
At 39 cross sections in a 3.3-kilometer reach of East Fork River Wyo., bed elevations were measured daily during a month-long period that included the peak snowmelt runoff. Elevations were measured at less frequent intervals for a week before and several weeks after peak runoff. Considerable scour and fill was...
Water resources of the Makah Indian Reservation, Washington
N. P. Dion, Kenneth Lyle Walters, L. M. Nelson
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-15
The residents of the Makah Indian Reservation depend on the streams of the area for their fisheries and domestic water supply. The temporal distribution of streamflow in the study area is closely related to the amount and distribution of rainfall. In a year of average precipitation about three-quarters of the...
Columbia Glacier, Alaska: Recent ice loss and its relationship to seasonal terminal embayments, thinning, and glacial flow
W. G. Sikonia, Austin Post
1980, Hydrologic Atlas 619
In 1974 the U.S. Geological Survey began an intensive investigation of the stability of Columbia Glacier, a calving tidewater glacier terminating in Columbia Bay, near Valdez, Alaska. Aerial photographs taken in 1957 and a sequence of photographs taken at about 2-month intervals since 1976, when analyzed photogrammetrically, provided detailed data...
Nutrient yield of the Apalachicola River flood plain, Florida; water-quality assessment plan
H. C. Mattraw Jr., John F. Elder
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-51
The Apalachicola River in northwestern Florida is the location of one of four current U.S. Geological Survey National River Quality Assessments. The investigation of the Apalachicola River and flood plain is designed to quantify the organic detritus and nutrient yield to the productive, estuarine Apalachicola Bay. The extensive riverine flood...
Calibration and testing of selected portable flowmeters for use on large irrigation systems
Richard R. Luckey, Frederick J. Heimes, Neville G. Gaggiani
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-72
Existing methods for measuring discharge of irrigation systems in the High Plains region are not suitable to provide the pumpage data required by the High Plains Regional Aquifer System Analysis. Three portable flowmeters that might be suitable for obtaining fast and accurate discharge measure-ments on large irrigation systems were tested...
Hydrology and model study of the proposed Prosperity Reservoir, Center Creek Basin, southwestern Missouri
Edward Joseph Harvey, Leo F. Emmett
1980, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-7
A dam and reservoir have been proposed for construction on Center Creek, Jasper County, in southwestern Missouri. Ground-water levels in the hills adjacent to the reservoir will rise when the impoundment is completed. One of the problems is that the proposed site of Prosperity Reservoir is a few miles upstream...
Hurricane Frederic tidal floods of September 12-13, 1979, along the Gulf Coast, Daphne-Point Clear quadrangles, Alabama
John C. Scott, Larry R. Bohman
1980, Hydrologic Atlas 631
Shown on a topographic map are floodmark elevations and approximate areas flooded by Hurricane Frederic tides of September 12-13, 1979, along the eastern shore of Mobile Bay generally from Daphne, Alabama, southward through Fairhope and Point Clear to Mullet Point, Alabama. Buildings and sewalls were damaged by flooding and tidal...
