The Effects of Channel Excavation on Water-Quality Characteristics of the Black River and on Ground-Water Levels Near Dunn, North Carolina

Description: From abstract: Data were collected at three sites on the Black River near Dunn, North Carolina, to define the effects of channel excavation on water-quality characteristics and on ground-water levels in nearby areas. Background data were collected at a site upstream from the 5-mile-long excavated reach. Changes in hydrologic characteristics were determined from data collected before, during, and after the construction period 1976-81. Significant changes occurred in shallow ground-water levels, … more

Hydrology of the Albemarle-Pamlico Region, North Carolina -- a Preliminary Report on the Impact of Agricultural Developments

Description: From abstract: Extensive agricultural land clearing and drainage operations underway in a 650 square mile part of the Albemarle-Pamlico region--a 1,634 square mile peninsula in North Carolina lying between Albemarle Sound on the North and the Pamlico River on the south--are changing the hydrology of the area. The artificial drainage system being constructed in the region, although it will probably result in only a slight modification of the natural annual evatranspiration, overland runoff, and … more

Water Quality of the French Broad River, North Carolina An Analysis of Data Collected at Marshall, 1958-77

Description: From introduction: This report presents the results of an investigation of the quality of water in the French Broad River at Marshall, N.C., that is based on data collected during the period 1958-77. Major objectives of the study were: (1) to define variations in water quality; (2) to determine the degree to which the quality of water in the river is affected by man's activities; and, (3) to identify past and present trends in the chemical quality of water in the river.
