Volumes of recent floods and potential for storage in upland watershed areas of Iowa Volumes of recent floods and potential for storage in upland watershed areas of Iowa

Substantial flooding at various locations throughout the United States, particularly during and after the Upper Mississippi River Basin flood of 1993, has resulted in analysis and discussion of both structural and nonstructural methods of watershed management to control flooding. The Upper Mississippi River Basin flood of 1993 resulted in the formulation of a Scientific Assessment and...

Fish communities and their relation to environmental factors in the eastern Iowa basins in Iowa and Minnesota, 1996 Fish communities and their relation to environmental factors in the eastern Iowa basins in Iowa and Minnesota, 1996

Fish community data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) at 12 sites in 1996 in the Wapsipinicon, the Cedar, the Iowa, and the Skunk River Basins in eastern Iowa. The study was done as part of the National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) Program of the USGS. This report presents an evaluation of the fish communities, the composition and conditions of the fish communities...

Creating a standardized watersheds database for the Lower Rio Grande/Río Bravo, Texas Creating a standardized watersheds database for the Lower Rio Grande/Río Bravo, Texas

This report describes the creation of a large-scale watershed database for the lower Rio Grande/Río Bravo Basin in Texas. The watershed database includes watersheds delineated to all 1:24,000-scale mapped stream confluences and other hydrologically significant points, selected watershed characteristics, and hydrologic derivative datasets. Computer technology allows generation of...

Louisiana coastal ecosystem Louisiana coastal ecosystem

Louisiana's coast and its degradation and restoration are major environmental issues being studied at the National Wetlands Research Center. Coastal ecosystems are vulnerable because of the tremendous amount of human activity that takes place along the coast. Information on ecological processes is essential to guide the development along the coast as well as to protect and restore...

Water quality in the eastern Iowa basins, Iowa and Minnesota, 1996-98 Water quality in the eastern Iowa basins, Iowa and Minnesota, 1996-98

The water quality in rivers and streams and in selected aquifers in eastern Iowa and part of southern Minnesota is described and illustrated. Major ions, nitrogen and other nutrients, and pesticides and some of their breakdown compounds were analyzed in both surface and ground water. Biological communities that included fish, invertebrates, and algae, were described in relation to stream...
