Estimation of natural streamflow in the Jemez River at the boundaries of Indian lands, central New Mexico
E.E. Fischer, J.P. Borland
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4113
Natural streamflow in the Jemez River at the boundaries of Indian lands was estimated from available streamflow records which were adjusted by estimated losses of water due to man-made changes in the hydraulic characteristics of the river basin. The average estimate annual natural streamflow is 53,180 acre-feet at the upstreams...
Petroleum and mineral resources of Antarctica
Karel Kovar
John Charles Behrendt, editor(s)
1983, Circular 909
No known petroleum or mineral resources occur in Antarctica. The data on these subjects have been collected, mainly since the IGY (International Geophysical Year), 1957-58, as a part of other research carried out by geologists and geophysicists from a number of countries. Specific resource-related studies have not been made. Wright...
Projected effects of proposed chloride-control projects on shallow ground water– Preliminary results for the Wichita River basin, Texas
Sergio Garza
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4026
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' plan to control the natural chloride pollution in the Wichita River basin includes the construction of Truscott Brine Lake on a tributary of the North Wichita River. In connection with the proposed brine lake, the U.S. Geological Survey was requested to: (1) Define the...

Shallow structure and stratigraphy of the carbonate West Florida continental slope and their implications to sedimentation and geohazards
Larry J. Doyle
1983, Open-File Report 83-425
An 1800-joule sparker survey of the West Florida continental slope between about 26?N and 29?15?N showed a top bed of Pleistocene age forming an irregular drape over a surface that is probably Pliocene. The contact between the top two layers is unconformable in the south and, in some places, shows...
Evidence for acid-precipitation-induced trends in stream chemistry at hydrologic bench-mark stations
Richard A. Smith, Richard B. Alexander
1983, Circular 910
Ten- to 15-year water-quality records from a network of headwater sampling stations show small declines in stream sulfate concentrations at stations in the northeastern quarter of the Nation and small increases in sulfate at most southeastern and western sites. The regional pattern of stream sulfate trends is similar to that...

Ground-water resources of coastal Citrus, Hernando, and southwestern Levy counties, Florida
J. D. Fretwell
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4079
Ground water in the coastal parts of Citrus, Hernando, and Levy Counties is obtained almost entirely from the Floridan aquifer. The aquifer is unconfined near the coast and semiconfined in the ridge area. Transmissivity ranges from 20,000 feet squared per day in the ridge area to greater than 2,000,000 feet...

Hydrogeology of a landfill, Pinellas County, Florida
Mario Fernandez Jr.
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-30
The Pinellas County landfill site is on a flat, coastal area characterized by a high water table is subject to tidal flooding. Altitudes within the study area range from 8 to 12 feet above sea level. Three geohydrologic units underlie the landfill site: a surficial aquifer about 19 feet thick...

Water quality of lakes Faith, Hope, Charity, and Lucien, 1971-79, in an area of residential development and highway construction at Maitland, Florida
Edward R. German
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-51
As part of an ongoing study of lakes in central Florida, Lakes Faith, Hope, and Charity were sampled from April 1971 to June 1979 to monitor water quality before, during, and after construction of Maitland Boulevard and the Interstate Highway 4 interchange. Sampling of Lake Lucien was added to the...

Municipal solid-waste disposal and ground-water quality in a coastal environment, west-central Florida
Mario Fernandez Jr.
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4072
Solid waste is defined along with various methods of disposal and the hydrogeologic factors to be considered when locating land-fills is presented. Types of solid waste, composition, and sources are identified. Generation of municipal solid waste in Florida has been estimated at 4.5 pounds per day per person or about...
Debris flow hazard assessment for the Oregon Caves National Monument
John Friday
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4100
After experiencing a devastating debris flow in the Oregon Caves National Monument, the National Park Service needs an evaluation of the hazard of additional flows. Soil properties at six random sites were compared with those at the source of the debris flow. Although all sites had soils that could become...
Estimating highest ground-water levels for construction and land use planning — A Cape Cod, Massachusetts, example
Michael H. Frimpter, Martha N. Fisher
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4112
High ground water is a major cause of septic-system failures, wet basements, and other problems for suburban and rural residents. A technique for estimating the level to which groundwater can rise as a consequence of weather and seasonal factors has been developed. Water-level records from about 160 sites were used...
