Hydrologic data for a study of pre-Illinoian glacial till in Linn County, Iowa, water year 1990

Hydrologic data for a study of pre-lllinoian glacial till were collected during the 1990 water year at a site in Linn County, Iowa. A hydrologic-data-collection network, consisting of 22 observation wells and a meteorological station, was installed at the site to describe the hydraulic properties of the till. Recorders were installed on 12 of the wells to continuously monitor water levels. Rainfal

Geohydrology and evaluation of water-resource potential of the Upper Floridan aquifer in the Albany area, southwestern Georgia

In the Albany area of southwestern Georgia, the Upper Floridan aquifer lies entirely within the Dougherty Plain district of the Coastal Plain physiographic province, and consists of the Ocala Limestone of late Eocene age. The aquifer is divided throughout most of the study area into an upper and a lower lithologic unit, which creates an upper and a lower water-bearing zone. The lower water-bearing

Effects of land-management practices on sediment yields in northeastern Guilford County, North Carolina

Streamflow, precipitation, and suspended-sediment data were collected from two small agricultural basins in the Piedmont province of North Carolina. The data were used to determine the effects of land-management practices on sediment yield. One basin of 7.4 acres represents best land-management practices with strip cropping, crop rotation, contour farming, and grassed waterways. The other basin of

Hydrogeology of the surficial aquifer system, Dade County, Florida

An investigation of the surficial aquifer system in Dade County, begun in 1983, is part of a regional study of the aquifer system in southeastern Florida. Test drilling for lithologic samples, flow measurements during drilling, aquifer testing, and analyses of earlier data permitted delineation of the hydraulic conductivity distribution (on hydrogeologic sections), the aquifers in the system, the
