Ground water for irrigation in the Brooten-Belgrade area, west-central Minnesota Ground water for irrigation in the Brooten-Belgrade area, west-central Minnesota
Water for irrigation is needed to improve crop yields from sandy soils in the Brooten-Belgrade area. Ground-water supplies of sufficient quantity and suitable quality for irrigation are available in much of the area. Quaternary glacial drift, as much as 300 feet thick, is underlain by Precambrian crystalline rocks and possibly by Cretaceous sedimentary rocks. Sand and gravel aquifers are...

Hydrology of Pine Creek, Wisconsin Hydrology of Pine Creek, Wisconsin
The purpose of this study was to determine the hydrologic characteristics of Pine Creek, Price County, Wisconsin, in order to evaluate a proposed reservoir on Pine Creek. The streamflow characteristics estimated are the mean flows, low flows, and flood peaks. The study was done by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.

Reconnaissance of the Black River, a cold-water river in the northcentral part of Michigan's southern peninsula Reconnaissance of the Black River, a cold-water river in the northcentral part of Michigan's southern peninsula
The cold-water streams of the northern states provide unique recreational values to the American people (wilderness or semi-wilderness atmosphere, fast-water canoeing, trout fishing) but the expanding recreational needs must be balanced against the growing demand of water for public and industrial supplies, for irrigation, and for the dilution of sewage and other wastes. In order to make

Sampling of fish muscle for M.S.222 and quinaldine residues Sampling of fish muscle for M.S.222 and quinaldine residues
Large variations in concentrations of M.S. 222 (tricaine methanesulfonate) and quinaldine (2-methylquinoline) residues occurred in various areas of fish fillets. Residue analyses of replicate samples from homogenized fillets yielded more representative results than samples cut from various areas of fillets.
