Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia
Long-term pumping from the Upper Floridan aquifer in the Savannah, Georgia, area has lowered ground-water levels, resulting in increased salinity of ground water by seawater encroachment at Hilton Head Island, S.C., and by saltwater intrusion at Brunswick, Ga. Increased pumpage could cause further salinization of the ground-water resources. The Savannah and Ogeechee Rivers can be...

Selected water-quality and biological characteristics of streams in some forested basins of North Carolina, 1985-88 Selected water-quality and biological characteristics of streams in some forested basins of North Carolina, 1985-88
Selected physical, chemical and biological components of streams draining undeveloped, forested basins in North Carolina were characterized on the basis of samples collected at nine sites on streams in basins that ranged in size from 0.67 to 11.2 sq mi. Water analysis included specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, water temperature, suspended sediment, pH, major dissolved constituents...

Effects of horizontal velocity variations on ultrasonic velocity measurements in open channels Effects of horizontal velocity variations on ultrasonic velocity measurements in open channels
Use of an ultrasonic velocity meter to determine discharge in open channels involves measuring the velocity in a line between transducers in the stream and relating that velocity to the average velocity in the stream. The standard method of calculating average velocity in the channel assumes that the velocity profile in the channel can be represented by the one-dimensional von Karman...

A summary of water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Iowa, fiscal year 1992 A summary of water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Iowa, fiscal year 1992
Water-resources activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Iowa consist of collecting hydrologic data and conducting interpretive studies. Hydrologic investigations in Iowa are made through three basic types of projects: (1) hydrologic data-collection programs; (2) local or areal studies; and (3) statewide or regional investigations. These projects are funded through cooperative joint...
Communications: Blood chemistry of laboratory-reared Golden trout Communications: Blood chemistry of laboratory-reared Golden trout
Golden trout Oncorhynchus aguabonita obtained from a wild stock as fertilized eggs were reared in the laboratory for 21 months. The laboratory-reared golden trout in our study reached sexual maturity earlier and grew more rapidly than wild golden trout do (according to the scientific literature). Male fish averaged 35.6 cm in total length and 426 g in weight, and females averaged 36.2 cm...

Toxicity of trace element and salinity mixtures to striped bass (Morone saxatilis) and Daphnia magna Toxicity of trace element and salinity mixtures to striped bass (Morone saxatilis) and Daphnia magna
Acute toxicity tests with reconstituted water were conducted to investigate the relationship between water hardness, salinity, and a mixture of trace elements found in irrigation drain waters entering Stillwater Wildlife Management Area (SWMA), near Fallon, Nevada. The SWMA has been the site of many fish kills in recent years, and previous toxicity studies indicated that one drain water...
