Sediment characteristics of Tennessee streams and reservoirs
Stanley W. Trimble, William P. Carey
1984, Open-File Report 84-749
Measured suspended-sediment data and reservoir sedimentation data have been analyzed to determine sediment yields and transport characteristics of Tennessee streams. Measured suspended-sediment is mostly silt and clay size material even in the sand-bed channels of western Tennessee. Unmeasured load accounts for less than 10 percent of the total sediment load...

Peak flow, volume, and frequency of the January 1982 flood, Santa Cruz Mountains and vicinity, California
J. C. Blodgett, K.R. Poeschel
1984, Open-File Report 84-583
The areal distribution of precipitation and flooding during the January 1982 storm in the Santa Cruz Mountains and vicinity was influenced by the orographic effect of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Precipitation depths ranged from 12.2 inches in 1 day on the west side to 1.33 inches on the east side....
Geohydrology of the valley-fill aquifer in the Cohocton area, upper Cohocton River, Steuben County, New York
David B. Terry, Timothy S. Pagano, Martha L. Shaw, Arlynn W. Ingram
1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4040
The Cohocton valley-fill aquifer, composed of outwash, kame, and alluvial sand and gravel, is highly productive and is in hydraulic contact with the Cohocton River. Potential well yields range from 50 to more than 1,000 gallons per minute. Most of the aquifer is under shallow water-table conditions and vulnerable to...

1984, Water-Resources Investigations Report 85-4095
The Bath valley-fill aquifer, southern New York, composed of outwash, ice-contact, and ice-disintegration sand and gravel, is highly productive and is in many areas in hydraulic contact with the Cohocton River. Potential well yields range 50 to more than 1,000 gallons per minute. Most of the aquifer is under shallow...

1984, Open-File Report 84-247
Research on the hydrology of Williams Lake, north-central Minnesota includes study of evaporation. Presented here are those climatic data needed for energy-budget and mass-transfer studies,including: water-surface temperature, dry-bulb and wet-bulb air temperatures, wind speed, precipitation, and solar radiation. Data are collected at raft and land stations....

Effects of brine on the chemical quality of water in parts of Creek, Lincoln, Okfuskee, Payne, Pottawatomie, and Seminole counties, Oklahoma
Robert B. Morton
1984, Open-File Report 84-445
A study of water-quality degradation due to brine contamination was made in an area of about 1,700 square miles in east-central Oklahoma. The study area coincides, in part, with the outcrop of the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer of Pennsylvanian age.Water samples collected from 180 wells completed in the Vamoosa-Ada aquifer, and at...
Cost effectiveness of the stream-gaging program in Maine; A prototype for nationwide implementation

1984, Water Supply Paper 2244
This report documents the results of a cost-effectiveness study of the stream-gaging program in Maine. Data uses and funding sources were identified for the 51 continuous stream gages currently being operated in Maine with a budget of \$211,000. Three stream gages were identified as producing data no longer sufficiently needed...

January 1984 water levels, and data related to water-level changes, western and south-central Kansas
M.E. Pabst, B.J. Dague
1984, Open-File Report 84-613
Water-level measurements were made, mostly during January 1984, in about 1,450 wells in western and south-central Kansas. The measurements were made in mid-winter when pumping was minimal and water levels had recovered, for the most part, from the effects of pumping during the previous irrigation season. Annual hydrologic data are...
