Selected hydrologic data for Salt Lake Valley, Utah, 1990-92, with emphasis on data from the shallow unconfined aquifer and confining layers

Hydrologic data were collected from wells in the Salt Lake Valley, Utah, from 1990 to 1992, to better understand the hydrologic system in the valley. Most of the data collected are from 36 monitoring wells drilled in June and July 1990 and March and May 1991 using a hollow-stem auger. These wells range from 15.0 to 129.5 feet deep and are completed in the shallow unconfined aquifer, an underlying

Ground-water level data for North Carolina, 1988-90

Continuous and periodic water-level measurements were made in 59 key wells throughout North Carolina. Additional measurements were made in 112 supplementary wells completed in Coastal Plain aquifers of the State. Changes in groundwater storage are shown in 3-year and 10-year hydrographs of selected wells in the State. The water table in the shallow aquifers was higher throughout most of 1989 and e

Geohydrologic and chemical data from wells in the Mud Lake area, eastern Idaho, 1988-91

Well information, results of test drilling, water-level measurements in observation wells, and chemical and isotopic constituents in ground-water samples were among the data collected as part of a study of the availability of ground water from the eastern Snake River Plain aquifer system in the Mud Lake area of eastern Idaho. Data from about 1,200 wells were stored in the National Water Informa

Records of wells in sandstone and alluvial aquifers and chemical data for water from selected wells in the Navajo aquifer in the vicinity of the greater Aneth Oil Field, San Juan County, Utah

This report contains hydrologic data for wells finished in sandstone and alluvial aquifers in southeastern San Juan County, Utah, and chemical data for water from selected wells in the Navajo aquifer. Temperature, specific conductance, pH, and discharge data from 1989-91 for water from selected wells in all aquifers are also presented.Data presented in this report were compiled from previously pub

Hydro-climatic data network (HCDN); a U.S. Geological Survey streamflow data set for the United States for the study of climate variations, 1874-1988

Records of streamflow can provide an account of climatic variation over a hydrologic basin. The ability to do so is conditioned on the absence of confounding factors that diminish the climate signal. A national data set of streamflow records that are relatively free of confounding anthropogenic influences has been developed for the purpose of studying the variation in surface-water conditions thro

Selected hydrologic data for Cache Valley, Utah and Idaho, 1969-91

This report contains hydrologic data collected in Cache Valley from 1969 to 1991. The report area is in north-central Utah and southeast Idaho, within the Basin and Range physiographic province described by Fenneman (1931), and includes about 660 square miles.Most of the data in this report were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah Department of Natural Resources, D

Acid-rain induced changes in streamwater quality during storms on Catoctin Mountain, Maryland

Catoctin Mountain receives some of the most acidic (lowest pH) rain in the United States. In 1990, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) and the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR), began a study of the effects of acid rain on the quality of streamwater on the part of Catoctin Mountain within Cunningham Falls State Park,

Acid rain and its effects on streamwater quality on Catoctin Mountain, Maryland

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is the Nation's largest water-science and water-information agency. The mission of the Water Resources Division of the USGS is to provide the hydrologic information and understanding needed for the best management of the Nation's water resources. To fulfill this mission, the USGS conducts water-quality and other types of investigations of the Nation's surface- and
