A supplement to "Methods for collection and analysis of aquatic biological and microbiological samples" A supplement to "Methods for collection and analysis of aquatic biological and microbiological samples"

The report contains methods used by the U.S. Geological Survey to collect, preserve, and analyze waters to determine their biological and microbiological properties. It supplements, "Methods for Collection and Analysis of Aquatic Biological and Microbiological Samples" (TWRI, Book 5, Chapter A4, 1977, edited by P. E. Greeson, T. A. Ehlke, G. A. Irwin, B. W. Lium, and K. V. Slack)...

Gas-liquid chromatographic determination of Bayer 73 in fish, aquatic invertebrates, mud, and water Gas-liquid chromatographic determination of Bayer 73 in fish, aquatic invertebrates, mud, and water

A gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) method is described for determining residues of Bayer 73 (2-aminoethanol salt of 2’,5-dichloro-4’-nitrosalicylanilide) in fish muscle, aquatic invertebrates, mud, and water by analyzing for 2-chloro-4-nitroaniline (CNA), a hydrolysis product of Bayer 73. Bayer 73 residues are extracted from fish muscle tissue, invertebrates, and mud with acetone-formic...

Three-dimensional finite-difference model of ground-water system underlying the Muskegon County wastewater disposal system, Michigan Three-dimensional finite-difference model of ground-water system underlying the Muskegon County wastewater disposal system, Michigan

The spray irrigation system used by Muskegon County for wastewater treatment is the largest of its kind in the United States. It has 2200 hectares of irrigated farm land, 688 hectares of treatment lagoons, and 105 kilometers of drainage tile. The system has a design capacity of 1.8 cubic meters of wastewater per second. A three-dimensional finite-difference model was developed to study...

Low-flow characteristics of small streams in proposed Public Law 566 basins Low-flow characteristics of small streams in proposed Public Law 566 basins

Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams in basins considered for work under Public Law 566 are presented in this report. The low-flow characteristics presented are the annual minimum 1-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 2 years (Q7,2) and the annual minimum 7-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 10 years (Q7,10)...

Geology and ground water in Door County, Wisconsin, with emphasis on contamination potential in the Silurian dolomite Geology and ground water in Door County, Wisconsin, with emphasis on contamination potential in the Silurian dolomite

Door County is in northeastern Wisconsin and is an area of 491 square miles. The county forms the main body of the peninsula between Green Bay and Lake Michigan. The land surface is an upland ridge controlled by the underlying bedrock. The west edge of the ridge forms an escarpment facing Green Bay. Silurian dolomite is the upper bedrock unit throughout most of the county and is the most...
