A two-dimensional, finite-difference model of the high plains aquifer in southern South Dakota
K.E. Kolm, H. L. Case III
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4175
The High Plains aquifer is the principal source of water for irrigation, industry, municipalities, and domestic use in south-central South Dakota. The aquifer, composed of upper sandstone units of the Arikaree Formation, and the overlying Ogallala and Sand Hills Formations, was simulated using a two-dimensional, finite-difference computer model. The maximum...
Public-supply pumpage in Wisconsin
C.L. Lawrence, B.R. Ellefson, R. D. Cotter
1983, Open-File Report 83-931
This report summarizes the amounts and distribution of the pumpage of ground water for public supplies from four aquifers in Wisconsin. The data are for 1979 and reflect the pumpage from about 1,100 wells in 485 communities. The distribution and amount of pumpage is estimated to be similar for subsequent...
Hydrogeologic and water-quality characteristics of the Mount Simon-Hinckley aquifer, southeast Minnesota
R. J. Wolf, J. F. Ruhl, D. G. Adolphson
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4031

The aquifer is most important as a source of water supply in the Twin Cities area, where it supplies approximately 10 percent of the ground water...
Regional magnetic and gravity features of the Gibson Dome area and surrounding region, Paradox Basin, Utah: A preliminary report
T.G. Hildenbrand, R.P. Kucks
1983, Open-File Report 83-359
Analyses of regional gravity and magnetic anomaly maps have been carried out to assist in the evaluation of the Gibson Dome area as a possible repository site for high-level radioactive waste. Derivative, wavelength-filtered, and trend maps were compiled to aid in properly locating major geophysical trends corresponding to faults, folds,...

Regional flow in the Dakota aquifer: A study of the role of confining layers
John D. Bredehoeft, C. E. Neuzil, P. C. Milly
1983, Water Supply Paper 2237
The Dakota Sandstone in South Dakota is one of the classic artesian aquifers; it was first studied by N. H. Darton at the turn of the century. Since then, hydrogeologists have debated the source of the large quantities of water which have been discharged by artesian flow from the Dakota....
Hydrogeologic and water-quality characteristics of the Upper Carbonate aquifer, Southeast Minnesota
J. F. Ruhl, R. J. Wolf
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 84-4150
The Upper Carbonate aquifer is part of a sequence of sedimentary bedrock units deposited in Paleozoic seas that occupied a depression known as the Hollandale embayment. The aquifer is comprised of four formations, which, in ascending order, are the Galena Dolomite, Dubuque Formation, Maquoketa Shale, and Cedar Valley Limestone. Total...
