Streambed adjustment and channel widening in eastern Nebraska Streambed adjustment and channel widening in eastern Nebraska
In eastern Nebraska, stream straightening and dredging efforts since the 1890s have disturbed the natural equilibrium of stream channels and have led to streambed adjustment by degradation and subsequent channel widening. This report describes a study to evaluate the effect these disturbances have had on stream channels in eastern Nebraska. Two sets of survey data were collected...

Vertical profiles of streambed hydraulic conductivity determined using slug tests in central and western Nebraska Vertical profiles of streambed hydraulic conductivity determined using slug tests in central and western Nebraska
Many issues of water-resources management rely on modeling of ground-water/surfacewater interactions, and streambed hydraulic conductivity is a key parameter controlling the water fluxes across the stream/aquifer interface. However, in central and western Nebraska, this parameter is generally undefined. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Nebraska Platte River Cooperative...

Channel stability of Turkey Creek, Nebraska Channel stability of Turkey Creek, Nebraska
Channelization on Turkey Creek and its receiving stream, the South Fork Big Nemaha River, has disturbed the equilibrium of Turkey Creek and has led to channel-stability problems, such as degradation and channel widening, which pose a threat to bridges and land adjacent to the stream. As part of a multiagency study, the U.S. Geological Survey assessed channel stability at two bridge sites...
