Hydrology of major estuaries and sounds of North Carolina
G. L. Giese, Hugh B. Wilder, Garald G. Parker Jr.
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-46
Hydrology-related problems associated with North Carolina's major estuaries and sounds include contamination of some estuaries with municipal and industrial wastes and drainage from adjacent intensively-farmed areas, and nuisance-level algal blooms. In addition, there is excessive shoaling in some navigation channels, saltwater intrusion into usually fresh estuarine reaches, too-high or too-low...
Saltwater-barrier line in Florida: Concepts, considerations, and site examples
Jerry L. Hughes
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-75
Construction of canals and enlargement of streams in Florida has been mostly to alleviate impact of floods and to drain wetlands for development. Land drainage and heavy pumpage from coastal water-table aquifers has degraded potable ground and surface water with saltwater. Control of saltwater intrusion is possible through implementation of...
Backwater at bridges and densely wooded flood plains, Thompson Creek near Clara, Mississippi
B.E. Colson, C. O. Ming, George J. Arcement
1979, Hydrologic Atlas 597
Floodflow data that will provide a base for evaluating digital models relating to open-channel flow were obtained at 22 sites on streams in Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Thirty-five floods were measured. Analysis of the data indicated methods currently in use would be inaccurate where densely vegetated flood plains are crossed...
Revision of the documentation for a model for calculating effects of liquid waste disposal in deep saline aquifers
Inc. INTERA Environmental Consultants
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-96
The model developed under this contract is a modified version of the deep well disposal model developed by INTERCOMP Resource Development and Engineering, Inc., for the U.S. Geological Survey (A model for calculating effects of liquid waste disposal in deep saline aquifers). The model is a finite-difference numerical solution of...
Interim data report on the geohydrology of the proposed waste isolation pilot plant site, southeast New Mexico
Jerry W. Mercer, R.B. Orr
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-98
Data collected at the proposed Waste Isolation Pilot Plant site in southeast New Mexico through September 1977 help define hydrologic conditions at the contact between the Permian Rustler and Salado Formations, and Culebra and Magenta Dolomite Members of the Rustler Formation. Preliminary calculations of transmissivity along the Rustler-Salado contact range...

1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-54
Hydrologic and water-quality data were collected on 4 estuaries in Pasco, Citrus, and Pinellas Counties, Florida, to evaluate modeling results. Current and predicted waste loading of the four estuaries was simulated by use of a two-dimensional steady-state, intertidal-condition model. Concentrations of DO, carbonaceous and nitrogenous BOD, and chloride were simulated...
