Water Quality Assessment of the Trinity River Basin, Texas - Pesticides in a Suburban Watershed, Arlington, 1993-94 Water Quality Assessment of the Trinity River Basin, Texas - Pesticides in a Suburban Watershed, Arlington, 1993-94
The Trinity River Basin was among the first 20 hydrologic systems under full inplementation of the National Water Quality Assessment (NAWQA) Program. Planning and analysis of existing information began in 1991. Intensive water-quality data collection began in 1993. As a part of the NAWQA Program, pesticide samples were taken from surface water, ground water, streambed sediment, and...

Geologic framework and hydrogeologic characteristics of the Edwards Aquifer outcrop, Hays County, Texas Geologic framework and hydrogeologic characteristics of the Edwards Aquifer outcrop, Hays County, Texas
All of the hydrogeologic subdivisions within the Edwards aquifer outcrop in Hays County have some porosity and permeability. The most porous and permeable appear to be hydrogeologic subdivision VI, the Kirschberg evaporite member of the Kainer Formation; hydrogeologic subdivision III, the leached and collapsed members, undivided; and hydrogeologic subdivision II, the cyclic and marine...

Documented and potential extreme peak discharges and relation between potential extreme peak discharges and probable maximum flood peak discharges in Texas Documented and potential extreme peak discharges and relation between potential extreme peak discharges and probable maximum flood peak discharges in Texas
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation, conducted a study of extreme flood potential for Texas. Potential extreme peak discharges, derived from the relation between documented extreme peak discharges and their contributing drainage areas, can provide valuable information concerning the maximum expected peak discharge that could occur at a...

Water-quality assessment in the Trinity River Basin, Texas: Nutrient concentrations in streams winter and spring 1994 Water-quality assessment in the Trinity River Basin, Texas: Nutrient concentrations in streams winter and spring 1994
A consistent, basin-wide set of data for streams in the Trinity River Basin is a necessary baseline to compare current conditions with historical data and to provide a reference for future studies. In addition, the basin-wide surveys begin the process of addressing the cause-effect relations for water quality in the basin. Effects of land use, geology, vegetation, soils, and reservoirs...

Water-quality assessment of the Trinity River Basin, Texas— Analysis of available information on nutrients and suspended sediment, 1974-91 Water-quality assessment of the Trinity River Basin, Texas— Analysis of available information on nutrients and suspended sediment, 1974-91
The U.S. Geological Survey is conducting an assessment of water quality in the Trinity River Basin as part of the National Water-Quality Assessment Program. During the planning phase of this study, existing information on nutrients and suspended sediment was compiled and analyzed. A total of about 5,700 water-quality samples were analyzed from local, State, and Federal agencies. Of these...
