Water resources data for South Carolina, water year 1988

Water resources data for the 1988 water year for South Carolina consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; and levels of ground-water wells. This volume contains records for water discharge at 104 gaging stations, stage only at 18 gaging stations, stage and contents at 12 lakes and reservoirs, water-quality at 61 gaging stations, and water levels at 43 observation wells. Also included are data for 41 crest-stage partial-record stations and discharge measurement information at 4 locations. Locations of these sites are shown on figures 3, 4, 5, and 6. Additional water data were collected at various sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program. These data represent that part of the National Water Data System collected by the U. S. Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in South Carolina.

Water resources data, South Carolina, water year 1986

Water resources data for the 1986 water year for South Carolina consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels of ground-water wells. This volume contains records for water discharge at 100 gaging stations, stage only at 7 gaging stations, stage and contents at 13 lakes and reservoirs, water quality at 47 gaging stations, and water levels at 40 observation wells. Also included are data for 38 crest-stage partial-record stations. Locations of these sites are shown on figures 3,4,5, and 6. Additional water data were collected at various sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program. These data represent that part of the National Water Data System collected by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in South Carolina.

Water resources data for South Carolina, water year 1984

Water resources data for the 1984 water year for South Carolina consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels of ground-water wells. This volume contains records for water discharge at 93 gaging stations, stage only at 5 gaging stations, stage and contents at 11 lakes and reservoirs, water quality at 49 gaging stations, and water levels at 62 observation wells. Also included are data for 40 crest-stage partial-record station. Locations of these sites are shown on figures 3, 4, 5, and 6. Additional water data were collected at various sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program. These data represent that part of the National Water Data System collected by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in South Carolina.

Hydrology of Lake Carroll, Hillsborough County, Florida

Lakeshore property around Lake Carroll has undergone extensive residential development since 1960. This development increased the lake shoreline, altered surface water flow to and from the lake, and may have affected lake-stage characteristics. Some areas of the lake were dredged to provide fill material for lakefront property. Water-balance analyses for 1952-60, a predevelopment period, and 1961-80, a period of residential development, indicate that both net surface water flow to the lake and downward leakage from the lake to the Floridan aquifer were greater after 1960. These changes were due more to changes in the regional climate and related changes in ground-water levels than to changes associated with residential development. Results of water quality analyses in 1980-81 are within State limits for surface waters used for recreation and wildlife propagation. (USGS)

Regional flood relations for unregulated lakes in west-central Florida

Regional lake flood altitude in the Southwest Florida Water Management District for 2- to 500-year recurrence intervals was estimated by multiple linear-regression analysis. The average lake altitude was used as a reference above which flood volumes are related to lake geometry, watershed characteristics, and rainfall. Average altitude at surface-outflow lakes is related to the altitude of the lake surface shown on topographic maps, lake-outlet altitude, and annual rainfall. Average altitude at closed-basin lakes is related to the altitude of the lake surface shown on topographic maps. Flood volume above average altitude for surface-outflow lakes is related to lake geometry, watershed characteristics, and rainfall. The average standard error of estimate for regional relations of surface-outflow lakes ranges from 29 to 54 percent in the Central Lake District and from 50 to 58 percent in the Ocala Uplift District. The average standard error of estimate for regional relations of closed-basin lakes ranges from 22 to 40 percent. Regional relations for average altitude and flood volume above average altitude are used to weight station flood-altitude data. Tables comparing station, regional, and weighted lake flood altitudes are shown for 47 lakes used in the analysis. (USGS)
