Flood frequency of the Savannah River at Augusta, Georgia Flood frequency of the Savannah River at Augusta, Georgia
To fill an increasing need for reliable information on floods of various recurrence intervals on the Savannah River a flood-frequency relation was developed for the long-term gaging station at Augusta, Georgia. The flood-frequency analysis was complicated by the fact that the Savannah River upstream of Augusta has experienced increasing regulation of flow caused by three large dams...

Water resources data, North Carolina, water year 1989 Water resources data, North Carolina, water year 1989
Water resources data for the 1989 water year for North Carolina consists of records of stage, discharge and water quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; and ground-water levels. This report contains discharge records for 178 gaging stations and stage and contents for 26 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 26 gaging stations and 10 miscellaneous sites...

Streamside habitats in southern forested wetlands: Their role and implications for management Streamside habitats in southern forested wetlands: Their role and implications for management
The value of streamside forests to fish and wildlife and the influence of forest management on their value have been recognized in a general sense for decades. However, in today’s climate of increasing environmental regulation and intensive forest management, there is need for more detailed understanding of the value of streamside forests to fish and wildlife. Dickson and Huntley (1987...

Sensitivity of endemic Snake River cutthroat trout to acidity and elevated aluminum Sensitivity of endemic Snake River cutthroat trout to acidity and elevated aluminum
Acidic episodes in waters of the western USA, do not last as long and are not as intense as those in the eastern USA, but we found that the native western cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarki is sensitive to even brief reductions in pH. In laboratory studies, fish were exposed to acidity (pH 4.5–6.5) alone or in the presence of aluminum during the first 7 d of the freshly fertilized egg...

Analysis of fish bile with HPLC — fluorescence to determine environmental exposure to benzo(a)pyrene Analysis of fish bile with HPLC — fluorescence to determine environmental exposure to benzo(a)pyrene
Brown bullhead from the Black River, Ohio, have a high incidence of liver neoplasia which is associated with elevated concentrations of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the sediment. We evaluated the use of biliary concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene [B(a)P] equivalents as a means for determining PAH exposure. Bile was collected from 16 brown bullheads and 8 common carp taken...

Trends in wintering canvasback populations at Catahoula Lake, Louisiana Trends in wintering canvasback populations at Catahoula Lake, Louisiana
Aerial survey data (1968-1989) and water gauge readings (1958-1989) were examined to detennine trends in and relationships between canvasback (Aythya valisineria) populations and water levels at Catahoula Lake, Louisiana. Wintering canvasback populations at Catahoula Lake have increased over the past 21 years. A peak population estimate of 78,000 canvasbacks was recorded in January 1988...

Water resources of northeast Iowa Water resources of northeast Iowa
In 1965 a cooperative investigation with the U.S. Geological Survey produced Water Atlas No. 1 (Twenter and Coble, 1965). It presented information on the occurrence, availability, use, quality, and future demand of water in 10 counties in the central part of the state. Subsequent investigations produced Water Atlases No. 4 (Coble and Roberts, 1971) for southeast Iowa, No. 5 (Cagle and...
