The Dry River and Camel Creek tributaries of the Upper Bur- dekin subcatchment had the highest average TSS concentrations across the entire Burdekin (3395 and 4075 mg L21, respectively) (Figure 5). These sites are located in the northern area of this subcatchment, and all monitored ...
Evacuations were ordered in nearby Watsonville where creek water spilled over and filled roadways with several feet of water, threatening dozens of homes with flooding. At one home, chickens inside a backyard coop perched on a bar near the roof to avoid the water. In some lower-elevation towns...
Outflow from the WRV aquifer system originates from five sources (from largest to smallest): Aquifer discharge into the Big Wood River and Silver Creek, Production-well pumping, Discharge across the water table into the vadose zone, Subsurface outflow beneath Silver Creek near Picabo, and ...

A study in California12 was the first to report levels of micro-plastics in river surface waters, with sampling in Los Angeles River, San Gabriel River and tributary Coyote Creek. The report found substantial temporal variations in plastic contamination levels. For a given location, the study fou...
This effort is called "CREST," which stands for Cleaner Rivers through Effective Stakeholder TMDLs.Since the initiation of CREST in 2004, the stakeholder group has collaborated on the development of three TMDLs: Ballona Creek Toxics, Ballona Creek Bacteria, and LA River Bacteria. For the ...
River, (ultimately from Latin ripa, “bank”), any natural stream of water that flows in a channel with defined banks . Modern usage includes rivers that are multichanneled, intermittent, or ephemeral in flow and channels that are practically bankless. T
4.4. Sheet of very poorly sorted gravel at the mouth of Alkali Creek A sheet of weakly stratified, very poorly sorted gravel underlies a bench at about 650 m asl on the northwest side of Alkali Creek near its confluence with Fraser River (Fig. 13A and B). The sheet is up to 15 ...
The concentrations, distribution, sources and ecological risk levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in tidal creek water from coastal tidal flats of the Yellow River Delta were investigated. The concentrations of 16 PAHs ranged from 0.113 to 1.533, with a mean value of 0.496 ± 0.035 ...
