Water resources data, Louisiana, water year 1983, volume 2. Southern Louisiana

Abstract

Water resources data for the 1983 water year for Louisiana consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage, contents, and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality of ground water. This report, in two volumes, contains records for water discharge at 79 gaging stations (including stage for 69 of these stations); stage only for 50 gaging stations and 11 lakes; contents for 1 reservoir; water quality for 110 surface-water stations (including 33 gaging stations), 10 miscellaneous sites, and 12 lakes, and 213 wells; and water levels for 679 observation wells. Also included are data for 195 crest-stage and flood-profile partial-record stations. Additional water data were collected at various sites not involved in the systematic data-collection program, and are published as miscellaneous measurements. These data represent that part of the National Water Data System operated by the U.S. Geological Survey and cooperating State and Federal agencies in Louisiana.
