Andrew Lange
Andrew Lange is a hydrologist at the USGS New York Water Science Center.
Andrew Lange is a hydrologist for the USGS New York Water Science Center, Coram Program office, in the Hydrologic Surveillance and Analysis section. Andy received his BS degree in Geology with a minor in Biology from Hofstra University in 1987. He has also completed some additional graduate coursework at Stony Brook University. He currently maintains stream gaging stations, makes discharge measurements, and computes records as well as record water levels at ground water wells, deploy and recover storm surge sensors and process associated data, and documenting high water marks. Since joining the USGS in 1990, Andrew has also worked on numerous multi-disciplinary projects including saltwater intrusion, hydrogeologic mapping, fractured-rock hydrology, borehole geophysics and water-quality tide gages.

Hydrogeology and Extent of Saltwater Intrusion in the Northern Part of the Town of Oyster Bay, Nassau County, New York: 1995–98
The Oyster Bay study area, in the northern part of Nassau County, N.Y., is underlain by unconsolidated deposits that form a sequence of aquifers and confining units. At least one production well has been affected by the intrusion of saltwater from Hempstead Harbor, Long Island Sound, and Cold Spring Harbor. Nineteen boreholes were drilled during 1995-98 for the collection of hydrogeologic, geochemAuthorsFrederick Stumm, Andrew D. Lange, Jennifer L. CandelaHydrogeology and extent of saltwater intrusion on Manhasset Neck, Nassau County, New York
Manhasset Neck, a peninsula on the northern shore of Long Island, N.Y., is underlain by unconsolidated deposits that form a sequence of aquifers and confning units. Ground water at several public-supply wells has been affected by the intrusion of saltwater from the surrounding embayments (Manhasset Bay, Long Island Sound, Hempstead Harbor). Twenty-two boreholes were drilled during 1992-96 for theAuthorsFrederick Stumm, Andrew D. Lange, J.L.

Advanced borehole geophysical methods were used to assess the geohydrology of crystalline bedrock along the course of a new water tunnel for New York City. The logging methods include natural gamma, spontaneous potential, single-point resistance, mechanical and acoustic caliper, focused electromagnetic induction, electromagnetic resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, borehole-fluid temperature andAuthorsFrederick Stumm, Anthony Chu, Andrew D.
