Preliminary study of sources and processes of enrichment of manganese in water from University of Rhode Island supply wells
William Dudley Silvey, Herbert E. Johnston
1977, Open-File Report 77-561
Concentrations of dissolved manganese have increased from 0.0 to as much as 3.3 mg/liter over a period of years in closely spaced University of Rhode Island supply wells. The wells tap stratified glacial deposits and derive part of their water from infiltration from a nearby river-pond system. The principal sources...
A brief investigation of the surface-water hydrology of Yemen Arab Republic
Henry Chiles Riggs
1977, Open-File Report 77-150
Yemen, near the southwest tip of the Arabian Peninsula, is a mountainous country bordered by a desert on the east and a coastal plain on the west. Rainfall is low and seasonal; consequently, most streams (wadis) are ephemeral. The natural flow regimens of many of the smaller wadis are modified...

Limnological studies of the major streams in Chester County, Pennsylvania
Bruce W. Lium
1977, Open-File Report 77-462
The major streams in Chester County, Pennsylvania were studied to determine their environmental state, and to relate this condition to land- use patterns. A biological numerical rating system on a scale of 1 to 10 was developed to classify stream conditions. One indicates extremely toxic conditions and 10 balanced biological...

Ground water-surface water relations in the Silver Creek area, Blaine County, Idaho
Joe A. Moreland
1977, Open-File Report 77-456
The relations between ground water and surface water were studied by the U.S. Geological Survey in the Silver Creek area, Blaine County, Idaho, as part of a comprehensive investigation of the area's water resources. Ground-water withdrawals calculated for 1975 totaled about 16,000 acre-feet (2.0 x107 cubic meters) of pumped ground...
