Statistical summary of daily values data and trend analysis of dissolved-solids data at National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) stations Statistical summary of daily values data and trend analysis of dissolved-solids data at National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) stations
A statistical summary is provided of the available continuous and once-daily discharge, specific-conductance, dissolved oxygen , water temperature, and pH data collected at NASQAN stations during the 1973-81 water years and documents the period of record on which the statistical calculations were based. In addition, dissolved-solids data are examined by regression analyses to determine...

Water quality of the Yadkin-Pee Dee River system, North Carolina— Variability, pollution loads, and long-term trends Water quality of the Yadkin-Pee Dee River system, North Carolina— Variability, pollution loads, and long-term trends
Interpretation of water quality data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey and the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources and Community Development, for the Yadkin-Pee Dee River system, has identified water quality variations, characterized the current condition of the river in reference to water quality standards, estimated the degree of pollution caused by man, and evaluated...

Water-quality characteristics for selected sites on the Cape Fear River, North Carolina, 1955-80: Variability, loads, and trends of selected constituents Water-quality characteristics for selected sites on the Cape Fear River, North Carolina, 1955-80: Variability, loads, and trends of selected constituents
Water-quality data for selected sites in the Cape Fear River basin collected by the U.S. Geological Survey, the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources and Community Development and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are analyzed and interpreted in this report. Emphasis is given to the Cape Fear River at Lock 1 near Kelly, where data are most complete. Other data...

Some observations on the ecology and fish management of reservoirs in the United States Some observations on the ecology and fish management of reservoirs in the United States
By 1980 there were 1,608 reservoirs (over 202 ha each) with a surface area of 4 million ha in the United States. Construction of new reservoirs has decreased in recent years because of the lack of suitable sites and the opposition of environmental interests. Reservoirs have characteristics of both lacustrine and riverine ecosystems. Reservoirs have been segmented into riverine...

Deep artesian aquifers of Sanibel and Captiva Islands, Lee County, Florida Deep artesian aquifers of Sanibel and Captiva Islands, Lee County, Florida
Sanibel and Captiva Islands, two of the barrier islands off the lower west coast of Florida, have a resident population of about 6,000 and an additional 6,000 visitors during the peak of the tourist season. Rapid growth and extensive development in recent years have imposed progressively greater stress on the water resources of the islands. Sanibel and Captiva Islands are underlain by a...

Hydrologic data from monitoring of saline-water intrusion in the Cape Coral area, Lee County, Florida Hydrologic data from monitoring of saline-water intrusion in the Cape Coral area, Lee County, Florida
As a result of declining water levels and saline-water intrusion in the Cape Coral area, the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the City of Cape Coral established a monitoring well network in Cape Coral and adjacent areas in 1978-79. The network was designed to provide indication of lateral movement of saline water in the upper part of the Hawthorn Formation; to provide trends in...
