Predicting watershed acidification under alternate rainfall conditions Predicting watershed acidification under alternate rainfall conditions
The effect of alternate rainfall scenarios on acidification of a forested watershed subjected to chronic acidic deposition was assessed using the model of acidification of groundwater in catchments (MAGIC). The model was calibrated at the Panola Mountain Research Watershed, near Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A. using measured soil properties, wet and dry deposition, and modeled hydrologic...

Environmental gradients and identification of wetlands in north-central Florida Environmental gradients and identification of wetlands in north-central Florida
Vegetation composition, soil morphology, and hydrology were characterized along wetland-to-upland gradients at six forested sites in north-central Florida to compare results of Federal wetland delineation methods with 3–5 yr of hydrologic data. Wetland and non-wetland identifications were supported by hydrology data in eight of nine plant communities. Lack of hydric soil indicators and...

Denitrification in a South Louisiana wetland forest receiving treated sewage effluent Denitrification in a South Louisiana wetland forest receiving treated sewage effluent
Although denitrification has the potential to reduce nitrate (NO3a??) pollution of surface waters, the quantification of denitrification rates is complex because it requires differentiation from other mechanisms and is highly variable in both space and time. This study first measured potential denitrification rates at a wetland forest site in south Louisiana before receipt of secondary...

Water resources data, Georgia, water year 1995 Water resources data, Georgia, water year 1995
Water-resources data for the 1995 water year for Georgia consists of records of stage, discharge, and quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; ground-water levels; and precipitation quality. This report contains discharge records of 119 gaging stations; stage for 26 gaging stations; stage and contents for 18 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 125 continuing...

Use of the semipermeable membrane device (SPMD) to sample polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pollution in a lotic system Use of the semipermeable membrane device (SPMD) to sample polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pollution in a lotic system
Relative concentrations of aqueous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) were investigated in an urban creek. Samples were obtained at five sites within a 600-m segment of the creek that is critical habitat for an endangered species of fish. the sampling technique entailed immersion of semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs) in the water for intervals as long as 64 d. SPMDs are passive...

Water-quality assessment of the Albermarle-Pamlico drainage basin, North Carolina and Virginia— A summary of selected trace element, nutrient, and pesticide data for bed sediments, 1969-90 Water-quality assessment of the Albermarle-Pamlico drainage basin, North Carolina and Virginia— A summary of selected trace element, nutrient, and pesticide data for bed sediments, 1969-90
Spatial distributions of metals and trace elements, nutrients, and pesticides and polychiorinated biphenyls (PCB's) in bed sediment were characterized using data collected from 1969 through 1990 and stored in the U.S. Geological Survey's National Water Data Storage and Retrieval (WATSTORE) system and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Storage and Retrieval (STORET) system...
