Water table on Long Island, New York, March 1979

Psychological science and the use of anatomically detailed dolls in child sexual-abuse assessments.

“…Within this framework, memory, suggestibility, and AD-doll use have multiple determinants, developmental level being an important but not the sole influence. Consistent with this view, when a task is simplified, when appropriate cues are available, and when the socioemotional context is supportive, young children typically provide more complete and accurate memory reports than when a task is complex requiring coordination of multiple higher level representations, when appropriate cues are unavailable, and when the socioemotional context is nonsupportive (e.g., Donaldson, 1979; Fischer & Bullock, 1984; Goodman, Bottoms, Schwartz-Kenney, & Rudy, 1991; Kail, 1990; Price & Goodman, 1990). For example, memory performance may falter when inaccurate or irrelevant cues in the form of toy props are introduced (Pipe, Gee, & Wilson, 1993; Saywitz, Goodman, Nicholas, & Moan, 1991; i.e., in some situations, AD dolls could constitute misleading or irrelevant cues), when the language used in an interview is unfamiliar and abstract (Brennan & Brennan, 1988; Carter, 1991; Perry et al, 1993), and when the emotional context is intimidating (Goodman et al, 1991; Hill & Hill, 1987; Saywitz & Nathanson, in press).…”

Urbanization and recharge in the vicinity of East Meadow Brook, Nassau County, New York: Part 4 — Water quality in the headwaters area, 1988-93

“…The first measurement of start-of-flow in East Meadow Brook was made in October 1966; that and the few subsequent measurements are plotted in figure 9. Because groundwater levels were higher during the early 1900's than in recent years, as illustrated by comparison of watertable maps by Donaldson and Koszalka (1983) and Doriski (1987) with the 1903 water-table map of Veatch and others (1906), flow in East Meadow Brook in the early 1900's probably started north of the three stormwater culverts.…”

“…The ground-water-contributing area of East Meadow Brook in 1961, as delineated by Franke and Cohen (1972), is shown in figure 13. Subsequent water-table maps (Donaldson and Koszalka, 1983; Doriski, 1987) indicate that the positions of local interstream divides and the ground-water-contributing area have remained fairly stable south of the shallow flow-system's upstream boundary, even though the water-table altitudes have changed. North of that boundary, the local interstream ground-water divides shift significantly in response to water-level changes, but these shifts do not affect the ground-water-contributing area to East Meadow Brook because most of the ground water in this area moves into the regional flow system, rather than into the shallow flow system.…”

Detection of contaminant plumes in ground water of Long Island, New York, by electromagnetic terrain-conductivity surveys

“…A regional water-table map by Donaldson ^nd Koszalka (1983) indicates that the Riverhead landfill is fairly close to the regional ground-water divide and therefore in an area of deep-aquifer recharge. The local water-table contours ( fig.…”
