Assessing the impact of drought on arsenic exposure from private domestic wells in the conterminous United States
Monitoring wetland water quality related to livestock grazing in amphibian habitats
Groundwater discharge impacts marine isotope budgets of Li, Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba
Statistical methods for simulating structural stormwater runoff best management practices (BMPs) with the Stochastic Empirical Loading and Dilution Model (SELDM)
This report documents statistics for simulating structural stormwater runoff best management practices (BMPs) with the Stochastic Empirical Loading and Dilution Model (SELDM). The U.S. Geological Survey developed SELDM and the statistics documented in this report in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration to indicate the risk for stormwater flows, concentrations, and loads to exceed us
Measuring U.S. Federal Agency progress toward implementation of alternative methods in toxicity testing
Response of aquatic life to coal mining in Appalachia
Embracing the Future: Promoting adaptation and resilience to invasive species and climate change
Evaluating the effects of replacing septic systems with municipal sewers on groundwater quality in a densely developed coastal neighborhood, Falmouth, Massachusetts, 2016–19
Adaptation actions for resistance, resilience, and transformation
Hydrogeologic framework, water levels, and selected contaminant concentrations at Valmont TCE Superfund Site, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, 2020
The Valmont TCE Superfund Site, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania is underlain by fractured and folded sandstones and shales of the Pottsville and Mauch Chunk Formations, which form a fractured-rock aquifer recharged locally by precipitation. Industrial activities at the former Chromatex Plant resulted in trichloroethene (TCE) contamination of groundwater at and near the facility, which was identified
