Surface- and ground-water quality data at selected landfill sites in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, 1979-92 Surface- and ground-water quality data at selected landfill sites in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, 1979-92

The U.S. Geological Survey initiated an urban water-quality study in 1979 in cooperation with the City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. As part of this study, a water-quality monitoring network was established at selected landfill sites in Mecklenburg County. Water-quality samples were collected at 27 surface-water sites and 97 ground-water sites at 5 landfills from...

Hydrology of two tidal marshes in North Carolina where open-marsh water management modifications have been implemented Hydrology of two tidal marshes in North Carolina where open-marsh water management modifications have been implemented

In 1988 and 1989, open-marsh water management modifications were implemented at tidal marshes near West Onslow Beach and Hobucken, North Carolina, as part of a pilot program to evaluate the effectiveness of ditching techniques as a mosquito-control method in open marshes. In 1984, before implementation of the modifications, a study was initiated to allow definition of the effects of...

Water-quality data from continuously monitored sites in the Pamlico and Neuse River estuaries, North Carolina, 1990-91 Water-quality data from continuously monitored sites in the Pamlico and Neuse River estuaries, North Carolina, 1990-91

Water quality measurements were made at six sites in or near North Carolina's Pamlico River estuary and at five sites in or near the Neuse River estuary. Measurements taken at 15-minute intervals included near-surface and near-bottom specific conductance; near-surface water temperature; and near-surface, mid-depth, and near-bottom dissolved-oxygen concentrations. In the Pamlico River...

Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia

Long-term pumping from the Upper Floridan aquifer in the Savannah, Georgia, area has lowered ground-water levels, resulting in increased salinity of ground water by seawater encroachment at Hilton Head Island, S.C., and by saltwater intrusion at Brunswick, Ga. Increased pumpage could cause further salinization of the ground-water resources. The Savannah and Ogeechee Rivers can be...

Two-dimensional circulation modeling of the Pamlico River estuary, North Carolina Two-dimensional circulation modeling of the Pamlico River estuary, North Carolina

A two dimensional, vertically averaged, unsteady flow model was applied to a 50- kilometer reach of the Pamlico River estuary, North Carolina. The model computational grid, which consists of about 16,000 square cells, each 200 meters on a side, was developed from more than one million depth soundings. Information from a comprehensive data-collection network, including six water-level...

Water resources data, Georgia, water year 1991 Water resources data, Georgia, water year 1991

Water resources data for the 1991 water year for Georgia consists of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; ground-water levels; and precipitation quality. This report contains discharge records of 114 gaging stations; stage for 28 gaging stations; stage and contents for 18 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 138...
