1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 83-4282
A map was prepared that shows the potentiometric surface of the Magothy aquifer in southern Maryland in September 1982. The map is based on measurements from a network of 83 observation wells. The highest levels of the potentiometric surface, 57 and 58 feet above sea level, were measured near the...
Reconnaissance of stormwater-runoff water quality of the Big Piney Creek segment of the Cedar-Piney Creeks watershed, Yell County, Arkansas
James C. Petersen
1982, Open-File Report 82-761
A reconnaissance of the Big Piney Creek watershed was made between June 1981 and January 1982 to assess the water quality of selected streams in the watershed. Streamflow was measured and water samples were collected three times at each of three sites during the study. All samples were collected during...
A data-management system for areal interpretive data for the High Plains in parts of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming
R. R. Luckey, C.F. Ferrigno
1982, Water-Resources Investigations Report 82-4072
The High Plains Regional Aquifer System Analysis has developed a regional water-resources (and related) data storage and retrieval system to organize and preserve areal interpretative data. The system is general and can easily be adapted for other studies. This report documents the High Plains data base as well as the...
Proceedings of Workshop XVI; The dynamic characteristics of faulting inferred from recordings of strong ground motion
John Boatwright, editor(s)
1982, Open-File Report 82-591
The strong ground motions radiated by earthquake faulting are controlled by the dynamic characteristics of the faulting process. Although this assertion seems self-evident, seismologists have only recently begun to derive and test quantitative relations between common measures of strong ground motion and the dynamic characteristics of faulting. Interest in this...
An evaluation of Idaho stream-gaging networks
E.W. Quillian, W. A. Harenberg
1982, Open-File Report 82-865
Network Analysis for Regional Information (NARI) and the Cost-Effectiveness Procedure were tested by applying them to stream-gaging networks in Idaho. NARI was used to determine network design strategies that would maximize the value of additional data. Value of data was measured as the decrease in the probable true standards error...
Habitat Suitability Index Models: Juvenile spot
Robert R. Stickney, Michael L. Cuenco
1982, FWS/OBS 82/10.20
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop estuarine habitat models for juvenile spot (Leiostomus xanthurus). The models are scaled to produce an index of habitat suitability between 0 (unsuitable habitat) to 1 (optimally suitable habitat) for estuarine areas of the continental United States. Habitat suitability indexes...

Habitat Suitability Index Models: Veery
Patrick J. Sousa
1982, FWS/OBS 82/10.22
Habitat preferences and species characteristics of the veery (Catharus fuscesens) are described in this publication. It is one of a series of Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) models and was developed through an analysis of available scientific data on the habitat requirements of the veery. Habitat use information is presented in...

Geologic maps of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California
Brian F. Atwater
1982, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1401
The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, the arm of the San Francisco Bay estuary that reaches into the Central Valley of California, differs from typical coastal-plain deltas in three important respects. First, rather than meeting the ocean individually and directly, all major waterways of this delta discharge via a single constricted outlet...
Mineral resource potential map of the Clear Lake Roadless Area, Leon County, Florida
