Hydrologic data for the drainage basins of Chatfield and Cherry Creek Lakes, Denver metropolitan area, Colorado
J. W. Gibbs, L.M. Arnold, R.L. Reed
1983, Open-File Report 83-857
Chatfield and Cherry Creek Lakes are flood control lakes constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and leased to the Colorado Division of Parks and Recreation. Both lakes are in the Denver metropolitan area and provide a variety of recreational activities, including boating, camping, fishing, picnicking, and swimming. The...
Stratigraphy, structure, and palinspastic synthesis of the western Brooks Range, northwestern Alaska
Charles F. Mayfield, Irvin L. Tailleur, Inyo Ellersieck
1983, Open-File Report 83-779
This report is an effort to describe and decipher the mid-Paleozoic to Lower Cretaceous stratigraphy and the orogenic evolution of the western Brooks Range. The western Brooks Range primarily is composed of stacks of complexly deformed thrust sheets that contain mostly coeval sequences of rocks with slightly different lithologic facies....
Streamflow and suspended-sediment transport in Garvin Brook, Winona County, southeastern Minnesota: Hydrologic data for 1982
G. A. Payne
1983, Open-File Report 83-212
Streamflow and suspended-sediment-transport data were collected in Garvin Brook watershed in Winona County, southeastern Minnesota, during 1982. The data collection was part of a study to determine the effectiveness of agricultural best-management practices designed to improve rural water quality. The study is part of a Rural Clean Water Program demonstration...
Preliminary plasma spectrometric analyses for selected elements in some geothermal waters from Cerro Prieto, Mexico
J.W. Ball, E. A. Jenne
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4056
As part of a cooperative study with Dr. Alfred Truesdell, water samples collected from geothermal power production wells at Cerro Prieto, Mexico, were analyzed for selected elements by d.c. argon plasma emission spectroscopy. Spectral interferences due to the presence of high concentrations of Ca, Si, Na and K in these...
Preliminary stage-discharge relations for Tombigbee River at Aliceville lock and dam, near Pickensville, Alabama
G. H. Nelson, C. O. Ming
1983, Open-File Report 83-752
The construction of Aliceville lock and dam and other related channel alterations, completed in 1979, has resulted in changes to the stage-discharge relations in the vicinity. The scarcity of current-meter measurements, coupled with backwater conditions, makes definition of a single stage-discharge relation impossible. However, limit curves can be defined that...
Chloride concentrations in the coastal margin of the Floridan Aquifer, southwest Florida
K.W. Causseaux, J. D. Fretwell
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4070
The Floridan aquifer is the principal source of freshwater supply in southwest Florida. The freshwater part of the aquifer is underlain by saltwater in lower formations and is bounded on the west by saltwater in the coastal parts of the aquifer. A zone of mixing lies between the saltwater and...
Report of reprocessing of reflection seismic profile X-5 Waste Isolation Pilot Plant site, Eddy County, New Mexico
John J. Miller
1983, Open-File Report 83-316
Seismic reflection profile X-5 exhibits a 7,700 ft long anomalous zone of poor quality to nonexistent reflections between shotpoints 100 and 170, compared to the high-quality, flat-lying, coherent reflections on either side. Results from drill holes in the area suggest 'layer cake' geology with no detectable abnormalities such as faults...
Potential effects of surface coal mining on the hydrology of the Snider Creek area, Rosebud and Ashland coal fields, southeastern Montana
M. R. Cannon
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4051
The Snider Creek area of the Rosebud and Ashland coal fields contains strippable reserves of Federal coal that have been identified for potential lease sale. A hydrologic study has been conducted in the potential lease area to describe the existing hydrologic systems and to assess potential impacts of surface coal...
Improvement of flood-frequency estimates for selected small watersheds in eastern Kansas using a rainfall-runoff model
R.W. Clement
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4110
The U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff model was used to estimate model parameters for 13 small watersheds in eastern Kansas with drainage areas of less than 11 square miles. Model parameters and rainfall data from three long-term rainfall stations were used in the model to synthesize long-term records of simulated annual...
Drainage areas of selected sites on streams in North Carolina
Robert L. Meikle
1983, Open-File Report 83-211
For the past several years, drainage-area data have been determined for approximately 12,400 selected sites on streams in North Carolina. Location information, including distance of nearby towns or other landmarks, latitude and longitude coordinates, county in which the site lies, and the name of the latest topographic maps on which...
Availability and chemical quality of water from surficial aquifers in Southwest Minnesota
D. G. Adolphson
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4030
The principal surficial aquifers in southwest Minnesota consist of outwash and alluvium material deposited in river valleys. The largest and most productive of these aquifers occupy the valleys of the Cottonwood, Des Moines, Redwood, and Rock Rivers and of tributaries to the Big Sioux River. Minor aquifers, adequate only for...
Hydraulic considerations in sampling the unsaturated zone with inclined gravity lysimeters
E. T. Oaksford
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4005
Inclined gravity lysimeters as deep as 5.39 meters below land surface designed for sampling soil water in coarse sand under continuous ponding conditions, were shown to be capable of collecting 10 liters per hour at an infiltration rate of 0.5 meter per hour. This represents a capture efficiency of approximately...
Subsurface storage of freshwater in South Florida; a digital analysis of recoverability
Michael L. Merritt
1983, Open-File Report 83-536
As part of a feasibility study of cyclic freshwater injection, digital models were implemented to analyze the relation of recovery efficiency to various hydrogeologic conditions which could prevail in brackish aquifers and to various management regimes. The analyses implemented an approach in which the control for sensitivity testing was a...
