Subsurface storage of freshwater in South Florida; a digital model analysis of recoverability
Michael L. Merritt
1985, Water Supply Paper 2261
As part of a study of the feasibility of recovering freshwater injected and stored underground in south Florida, a digital solute-transport model was used to investigate the relation of recovery efficiency to the variety of hydrogeologic conditions that could prevail in brackish artesian aquifers and to a variety of management...

Water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Nebraska, 1984
J.E. McKinney
1985, Open-File Report 85-181
The State of Nebraska has a greater abundance of water than most of the surrounding States. The major water issues in the State concern the management of these water resources in regard to their availability areally across the State and temporally over the changing seasons and cycles of weather. Management...

1985, Open-File Report 83-858
Two years (water yr 1980 and 1981) of data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey for the U.S. Department of Energy, Naval Petroleum and Oil Shale Reserves, in the Parachute Creek drainage basin of northwestern Colorado are tabulated. Data were obtained from five surface water gages, two automatic sediment samplers,...
Digital models of ground-water flow in the Cape Cod aquifer system, Massachusetts
John H. Guswa, Denis R. LeBlanc
1985, Water Supply Paper 2209
The Cape Cod aquifer system was simulated with three-dimensional finite-difference ground-water-flow models. Five areas were modeled to provide tools that can be used to evaluate the hydrologic impacts of regional water development and waste disposal. The model boundaries were selected to represent the natural hydrologic boundaries of the aquifer. The...
Ground-water resources and potential hydrologic effects of surface coal mining in the northern Powder River basin, southeastern Montana
Steven E. Slagle, Barney D. Lewis, Roger W. Lee
1985, Water Supply Paper 2239
The shallow ground-water system in the northern Powder River Basin consists of Upper Cretaceous to Holocene aquifers overlying the Bearpaw Shale--namely, the Fox Hills Sandstone; Hell Creek, Fort Union, and Wasatch Formations; terrace deposits; and alluvium. Ground-water flow above the Bearpaw Shale can be divided into two general flow patterns....
January 1985 water levels, and data related to water-level changes, western and south-central Kansas
B.J. Dague
1985, Open-File Report 85-423
Hydrologic data related to water level measurements made in approximately 1,350 observation wells in western and south-central Kansas are shown in this report. The measurements were made in mid-winter when pumping was minimal and water levels had recovered, for the most part, form the effects of pumping during the previous...
Selected hydrologic data from the northern part of the Hueco Bolson, New Mexico and Texas
B. R. Orr, R.R. White
1985, Open-File Report 85-696
Hydrologic data were collected in early 1985 from the northern part of the Hueco Bolson in Dona Ana County, New Mexico, and El Paso County, Texas, and in adjacent areas in the Tularosa Basin in New Mexico. Water-level measurements made in 50 wells are presented in this report. Information is...
Selected climatological and hydrologic data, Raton basin, Huerfano and Las Animas Counties, Colorado, and Colfax County, New Mexico
Arthur L. Geldon, P.O. Abbott
1985, Open-File Report 84-138
The hydrology of the coal-bearing Raton Basin of Colorado and New Mexico was investigated by the U.S. Geological Survey. Data in the report were collected from 1977 to 1982, mainly in the watersheds of the Apishapa and Purgatoire Rivers; data from the Cucharas, Canadian, and Vermejo River watersheds are also...
