Automatic tracer-dilution method used for stage-discharge ratings and streamflow hydrographs on small Iowa streams Automatic tracer-dilution method used for stage-discharge ratings and streamflow hydrographs on small Iowa streams
An automatic system was designed to concurrently measure stage and discharge for the purpose of developing stage-discharge ratings and high flow hydrographs on small streams. Stage, or gage height, is recorded by an analog-to-digital recorder and discharge is determined by the constant-rate tracer-dilution method The system measures flow above a base stage set by the user. To test the

Water-resources potential of the freshwater lens at Key West, Florida Water-resources potential of the freshwater lens at Key West, Florida
The island of Key West lies at the end of the Florida Keys, about 150 miles southwest of Miami. The public-water supply for the island is provided by the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority Well Field near Miami. However, there are many privately owned wells on the island that tap the local fresh ground-water lens for potable and nonpotable water supply. The number of people who use water...

Influence of ingested lead on body mass of wintering canvasbacks Influence of ingested lead on body mass of wintering canvasbacks
We determined the prevalence of lead shotgun pellets in gizzards of canvasbacks (Aythya valisineria) collected at Catahoula Lake and the Mississippi River Delta, Louisiana, during winter 1987-88 to assess the influence of ingested lead shot on canvasback body mass. The prevalence of ingested lead shot was significantly higher at Catahoula Lake (27%) than at the Mississippi River Delta (4...

Laboratory simulation of the effects of overburden stress on the specific storage of shallow artesian aquifers Laboratory simulation of the effects of overburden stress on the specific storage of shallow artesian aquifers
A laboratory experiment to measure the specific storage of an aquifer material was conducted. A known dead load, simulating an overburden load, was applied to a sample of completely saturated aquifer material contained inside a cylinder. After the dead load was applied, water was withdrawn from the sample, causing the hydrostatic pressure to decrease and the effective stress to increase...
