Exceedance probability-depth relationships of floods for Maryland streams west of Chesapeake Bay Exceedance probability-depth relationships of floods for Maryland streams west of Chesapeake Bay

A procedure is outlined for estimating the depths of floods of specified exceedance probabilities for Maryland streams west of the Chesapeake Bay. Data required for use of the estimating procedure are the stream's location in one of three flood-depth regions and the drainage area. Regression equations developed for depth estimation of the 50-, 20-, 10-, 2-, and 1-percent floods have...

Changes in submerged aquatic macrophyte populations at the head of Chesapeake Bay, 1958-1975 Changes in submerged aquatic macrophyte populations at the head of Chesapeake Bay, 1958-1975

Submerged aquatic plant populations in the Susquehanna Flats of the Chesapeake Bay were followed for 18 years. An exotic species, eurasian water milfoil, Myriophyllum spicatum, increased dramatically from 1958 to 1962; at the same time the dominant native species declined. After 1962, milfoil populations declined and the native rooted aquatics gradually began to return to their former...

Organochlorine residues, eggshell thickness, and nest success in barn owls from the Chesapeake Bay Organochlorine residues, eggshell thickness, and nest success in barn owls from the Chesapeake Bay

Eggs of barn owls (Tyto alba) were collected from 18 nests in offshore duck blinds on the Maryland side of the lower Potomac River estuary in 1972 and 1973 and analyzed for organochlorine residues. DDE was found in 100% of the clutches, PCBs in 89%, and dieldrin in 78%. Eggshell thickness was inversely correlated with concentrations of DDE, DDD, and dieldrin residues. Six of the 18...
