  2. Cannabis drug testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_drug_testing

    Cannabis use is detectable with hair tests and is generally included in the standard hair test. Hair tests generally take the most recent 1.5 inches of growth and use those for testing. That provides a detection period of approximately 90 days. [5] If an individual's hair is shorter than 1.5 inches, this detection period will be shorter.

  3. Stream gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_gauge

    The first routine measurements of river flow in England began on the Thames and Lea in the 1880s, [2] and in Scotland on the River Garry in 1913. [3] The national gauging station network was established in its current form by the early 1970s and consists of approximately 1500 flow measurement stations supplemented by a variable number of temporary monitoring sites. [2]

  4. Hayfork Creek - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayfork_Creek

    The U.S. Geological Survey had a stream gauge on Hayfork Creek at Hyampom from 1954 to 1974. During the twenty years of record, the average discharge at the mouth was 552 cubic feet per second (15.6 m 3 /s) calculated from monthly mean discharges. [4] The largest peak flow was 29,400 cubic feet per second (830 m 3 /s) in December 1964. [5]

  5. Chemical defenses in Cannabis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_defenses_in_Cannabis

    Close up of a Cannabis plant. Cannabis (/ˈkænəbɪs/) is commonly known as marijuana or hemp and has two known strains: Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica, both of which produce chemicals to deter herbivory. The chemical composition includes specialized terpenes and cannabinoids, mainly tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and cannabidiol (CBD ...

  6. Acoustic Doppler current profiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_Doppler_Current...

    Mounted sideways on a wall or bridge piling in rivers or canals, it can measure the current profile from bank to bank. In very deep water they can be lowered on cables from the surface. The primary usage is for oceanography. [4] The instruments can also be used in rivers and canals to continuously measure the discharge.

  7. Hydrologic unit system (United States) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrologic_unit_system...

    The 10-digit watersheds were delineated to be between 40,000 and 250,000 acres in size, and the 12-digit subwatersheds between 10,000 and 40,000 acres. [5] In addition to the hydrologic unit codes, each hydrologic unit was assigned a name corresponding to the unit's principal hydrologic feature or to a cultural or political feature within the ...

  8. Water year - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_year

    The United States Geological Survey (USGS) defines it as the period between October 1 of one year and September 30th of the next, [2] [3] as late September to early October is the time for many drainage areas in the US to have the lowest stream flow and consistent ground water levels. The water year is designated by the calendar year in which ...

  9. Hydrograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrograph

    A stream hydrograph is commonly determining the influence of different hydrologic processes on discharge from the subject catchment. Because the timing, magnitude, and duration of groundwater return flow differs so greatly from that of direct runoff, separating and understanding the influence of these distinct processes is key to analyzing and simulating the likely hydrologic effects of ...
