Sediment data for mid-Arkansas and upper-Red River basins through 1980
Stephen P. Blumer
1983, Open-File Report 83-692
Sediment data have been collected at 279 locations within the Mid-Arkansas and Upper-Red River basins in and along the borders of Oklahoma and Kansas. This compilation of sediment records presents tables and plots of all suspended-sediment data collected between 1930 and 1980. The publication not only provides a published source...
Storage requirements for Georgia streams
Robert F. Carter
1983, Open-File Report 82-557
The suitability of a stream as a source of water supply or for waste disposal may be severely limited by low flow during certain periods. A water user may be forced to provide storage facilities to supplement the natural flow if the low flow is insufficient for his needs. This...
Water-resources investigations of the U.S. Geological Survey in Wyoming, fiscal year 1983
S. L. Green
1983, Open-File Report 83-770
Lists and location maps of streamflow and reservoir stations, crest stage partial record stations, water quality stations, sediment stations, and groundwater observation wells where data are currently being collected in Wyoming are presented. Water resources appraisal projects in Wyoming are described, including many that are related to development of energy...

Water-level maps of the alluvial aquifer, northwestern Mississippi, September 1982
Daphne Darden
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4133
Water levels were measured in about 500 wells in the Mississippi River valley alluvial aquifer in northwestern Mississippi during September 13-24, 1982. The water-level change from September 1981 to September 1982 showed some recovery, but the depth-to-water map showed areas of continual water-level decline in the central part of the...

Use of flumes in measuring discharge
F. A. Kilpatrick, V.R. Schneider
1983, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A14
Flumes for measuring discharge are usually of two general groups-critical-flow flumes and supercritical-flow flumes. In this chapter, the underlying design principles for each group are discussed; the most commonly used flumes are described and their discharge ratings presented. There is also discussion of considerations in choosing and fitting the appropriate...
Reconnaissance of surface-water resources in the Kobuk River basin, Alaska, 1979-80
J.M. Childers, D.R. Kernodle
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4027
Surface water data were collected at selected sites in the Kobuk River Basin in northwest Alaska in August 1979 and April 1980. In August 1979, frequent heavy rains caused abnormally high flows in the basin; unit runoff values, computed from discharge measurements at 25 sites, ranged from 0.08 to 12.2...
Hydrologic conditions in the Wheatland Flats area, Platte County, Wyoming

1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4047
The area includes about 260 square miles in central Platte County that consists of Wheatland Flats and a border region. Wheatland Flats is an area of about 100 square miles that is bounded by Chugwater Creek on the east, the Laramie River on the north, and Sybille Creek on the...

Time series analysis of Cenozoic era sea level and paleotemperature data
George H. Rosenfield, Tod E. Huffman
1983, Open-File Report 83-566
A statistical analysis of Cenozoic era sea level and paleotemperature data was performed to determine the cycles of each data set and the correspondence between them. Accordingly, each of the four time series were first analyzed independently in the univariate mode of a spectral analysis. The two basic data sets...
Meteorological, water-temperature, and discharge data for the Mattole River basin, Humboldt County, California
R.D. Noble, Alan P. Jackman
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-81
To overcome a major difficulty in the testing of the validity of river-temperature models - the lack of adequate precise synoptic data for an entire river basin - synoptic meteorologic, water-temperature, and discharge data were obtained in the Mattole River Basin in northern California during the period June 10 through...
Mineral resource assessment of the Iron River 1° x 2° quadrangle, Michigan and Wisconsin
William F. Cannon
1983, Circular 887
The Iron River 1? x 2? quadrangle contains identified resources of copper and iron. Copper-rich shale beds in the north part of the quadrangle contain 12.2 billion pounds (5.5 billion kilograms) of copper in well-studied deposits including 9.2 billion pounds (4.2 billion kilograms) that are economically minable by 1980 standards....
Hydrogeology and simulation of water flow in the Kootenai aquifer of the Judith basin, central Montana
Julianne F. Levings
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4146
Five Jurassic and Cretaceous formations in the Judith basin of central Montana were investigated with a three-dimensional model to improve the understanding of water flow in the Kootenai aquifer. To accomplish this objective, of water flow in the aquifers and two intervening confining layers was constructed from existing data. A...
Initial assessment of time of travel and mixing through Gulf Island Pond and the lower Androscoggin River, Maine
G.W. Parker, G.S. Hunt
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4020
Flow-stratification patterns were observed in Gulf Island Pond during time-of-travel studies in May and August 1980. The stratification patterns in this 70 million cubic-meter impoundment were due to a temperature differences between inflowing water and reservoir water. Separation was observed at temperature differences of 0.5 degrees C in May 1980...
Injection of treated wastewater for ground-water recharge in the Palo Alto Baylands, California, hydraulic and chemical interactions — Preliminary report
S. N. Hamlin
1983, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4121
An injection-extraction well network in the Palo Alto Baylands along the San Francisco Bay, California, was designed to flush the shallow aquifer system of saline water and prevent further inland saline contamination. Clogging processes and solution migration in the vicinity of one injection well were studied. Cyclic evaporative concentration of...
