Data collected as part of a report on the Portland Maine NTMS area including laboratory data on well, spring, and stream waters and stream sediments as well as field data.

First volume of a report documenting a high-sensitivity airborne radiometric and magnetic survey of four quadrangles in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan including documentation about data collection and analysis.

From abstract: The purposes of this report are to determine the low-flow characteristics in the Red Cedar River Basin, where surplus water may be diverted, and to present methods to determine low-flow characteristics at additional sites.

From abstract: This report presents estimated annual and monthly water budgets for lake Wingra and the adjacent wetland area for January 1972 through September 1977. Annually, inputs from precipitation, surface runoff, and ground-water inflow are approximately equal (31, 34, and 35 percent, respectively). Outputs include outflow from the lake into Murphy Creek (70 percent), evotranspiration from the lake and wetland (26 percent), and ground-water outflow (4 percent).

From introduction: This study was begun in 1967 in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of natural Resources (DNR)--its purpose was to evaluate the effects of construction of a reservoir and a floodwater-retention structure on the hydrologic system and water quality in a small basin in southwestern Wisconsin. In 1968, Federal research funds were obtained to provide for more detailed study of water quality and to extend the scope of the study to include aquatic biota.

From abstract: The purpose of this report is to present low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at sewage-treatment and industrial plants. The low-flow characteristics are needed to implement water-quality standards for all surface waters of the State. Water-quality standards in Wisconsin are based on the annual minimum 7-day mean flow below which the flow will fall on the average of once in 10 years.

From introduction: "The permeability map presents information on an important factor in determining contamination potential [. . .] This map divides the unconsolidated materials into three permeability categories."

From abstract: Sedimentary rocks of Cambrian and Ordovician age form a major aquifer system in most of Wisconsin and Iowa, northern Illinois, northwestern Indiana, southeastern Minnesota, and northern Missouri. Many metropolitan areas depend on the aquifer for all or part of their water supplies. Declines in potentiometric head have been large in the most heavily pumped areas, most notably Chicago, Milwaukee-Waukesha, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and Des Moines.

From introduction: The purpose of this report is to describe low-flow characteristics of streams in the Trempealeau-Black River basin where streamflow data have been collected and to present equations useful for estimating low-flow characteristics at ungaged sites.
