Water-quality data from continuously monitored sites in the Pamlico and Neuse River estuaries, North Carolina, 1990-91 Water-quality data from continuously monitored sites in the Pamlico and Neuse River estuaries, North Carolina, 1990-91
Water quality measurements were made at six sites in or near North Carolina's Pamlico River estuary and at five sites in or near the Neuse River estuary. Measurements taken at 15-minute intervals included near-surface and near-bottom specific conductance; near-surface water temperature; and near-surface, mid-depth, and near-bottom dissolved-oxygen concentrations. In the Pamlico River...

Hydrologic data for a study of pre-Illinoian glacial till in Linn County, Iowa, water year 1991 Hydrologic data for a study of pre-Illinoian glacial till in Linn County, Iowa, water year 1991
Hydrologic data for a study of pre-lllinoian glacial till were collected during the 1991 water year at a site in Linn County, east-central Iowa. A hydrologic-data-collection network, consisting of a meteorological station, 22 observation wells, and a water-quality minimonitor, was installed at the site to investigate the hydraulic properties of the till. Recorders were installed on 12 of...

The use of freshwater and saltwater animals to distinguish between the toxic effects of salinity and contaminants in irrigation drain water The use of freshwater and saltwater animals to distinguish between the toxic effects of salinity and contaminants in irrigation drain water
Irrigation drain waters entering Stillwater Wildlife Management Area (SWMA) in south-western Nevada contain elevated levels of salinity and several inorganic contaminants (As, B, Cu, Li, Mo, and Sr). Mortalities of fish and waterfowl at the management area are believed to be associated with the poor water quality of the drains. The objective of the present study was to use fresh-water...

Selenium and other elements in freshwater fishes from the irrigated San Joaquin Valley, California Selenium and other elements in freshwater fishes from the irrigated San Joaquin Valley, California
Arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), and selenium (Se) were measured in composite whole-body samples of five fishes — bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus), common carp (Cyprinus carpio), mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis), largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), and Sacramento blackfish (Orthodon microlepidotus) — from the San Joaquin River system to determine if concentrations were...

Food preferences of spring-migrating blue-winged teal in southwestern Louisiana Food preferences of spring-migrating blue-winged teal in southwestern Louisiana
We studied effects of pair status, molt intensity, and year on food selection by migrating male blue-winged teal (Anas discors) in southwestern Louisiana during springs 1990 and 1991. Diets consisted primarily of animal foods; but plant material, consisting mostly of seeds, comprised as much as 44%. There was no difference in animal food consumption by paired and unpaired males; however...
