Limnology of selected lakes in Ohio, 1975 Limnology of selected lakes in Ohio, 1975

Water-quality reconnaissance by the U.S. Geological Survey and Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, to evaluate the status of Ohio's lakes and reservoirs was begun in 1975 with studies of 17 lakes. Spring and summer data collections for each lake included: profile measurements of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductance; field and laboratory analyses of physical...

Time of travel of solutes in the Tuscarawas River Basin, Ohio, August and September, 1974 Time of travel of solutes in the Tuscarawas River Basin, Ohio, August and September, 1974

A time-of-travel study was made on a 10.6-mile reach of the Tuscarawas River to determine average velocity and dispersion characteristics between selected points. The reach was divided into five subreaches, and a fluorescent dye used as a tracer material. At about the 50-percent flow-duration level, time-of-travel of the peak concentration was 137 hours.

Time of travel of solutes in the Tuscarawas River Basin, Ohio, August and September, 1974 Time of travel of solutes in the Tuscarawas River Basin, Ohio, August and September, 1974

A time-of-travel study was made on a 106-mile reach of the Tuscarawas River to determine average velocity and dispersion characteristics between selected points. The reach was divided into five subreaches, and a fluorescent dye used as a tracer material. At about the 50-percent flow-duration level, time of travel of the peak concentration was 137 hours.

Model analysis of effects on water levels at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore caused by construction dewatering Model analysis of effects on water levels at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore caused by construction dewatering

Two computer models were developed to investigate possible hydrologic effects within the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore caused by planned dewatering at the adjacent Bailly Nuclear Generator construction site. The dewatering, which is scheduled to last for about 18 months, would cause ground-water levels to be drawn down 20 to 30 feet (6 to 9 metres) to an elevation of 4 ft (1.2 m)...

Availability of ground water near Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana Availability of ground water near Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana

A study of the hydraulic characteristics of the unconsolidated glacial deposits near the city of Carmel in central Indiana shows that 21.3 million gallons per day (933 litres per second) of additional water could be withdrawn from the aquifer for an indefinite period of time . This pumpage is approximately 5 million gallons per day (219 litres per second) above the projected water needs...

A technique for estimating the time of travel of water in Indiana streams A technique for estimating the time of travel of water in Indiana streams

Estimates of the traveltime of waterborne particles in streams is important for pollution studies and in the event of spills of contaminants. This report provides data for the 16 Indiana streams on which time-of-travel information has been obtained and a means for estimating the velocity of any naturally flowing stream in Indiana with a drainage area of 80 square miles (210 square...

Digital-model analysis to predict water levels in a well field near Columbus, Indiana Digital-model analysis to predict water levels in a well field near Columbus, Indiana

Columbus, Indiana, obtains its water supply from six municipally owned wells southwest of the city. The wells are screened in an outwash sand and gravel aquifer that was deposited by glacial melt water in a preglacial bedrock valley. The well field is midway between the East Fork White River and the western edge of the valley. A digital model was used to determine the effects of two...

Statistical summaries of Indiana streamflow data Statistical summaries of Indiana streamflow data

Complete statistical analyses are presented in tabular form for all gaging stations in Indiana, regardless of length of record. Each station analysis includes lowest and highest mean daily discharges, flow duration, statistics on normal monthly means, statistics on normal annual means, statistics on log monthly means, statistics on log annual means, and annual peak discharges.
