The material has been revised and expanded and is presented in the present form to make it more readily available to the field hydrologist. Illustrations now present published examples of the applications suggested in the 1952 material. </p><p>For small areas, a field pumping test is sufficient to predict the characteristics of an aquifer. With a large area under study, the aquifer properties must be determined at many different locations and it is not usually economically feasible to make sufficient field tests to define the aquifer properties in detail for the whole aquifer. By supplementing a few field tests with laboratory permeability data and geologic interpretation, more point measurements representative of the hydrologic properties of the aquifer may be obtained. </p><p>A sufficient number of samples seldom can be obtained to completely identify the permeability or transmissibility in detail for a project area. However, a few judiciously chosen samples of high quality, combined with good geologic interpretation, often will permit the extrapolation of permeability information over a large area with a fair degree of reliability. The importance of adequate geologic information, as well as the importance of collecting samples representative of at least all major textural units lying within the section or area of study, cannot be overemphasized.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","publisherLocation":"Denver, CO","doi":"10.3133/ofr6367","issn":"0094-9140","usgsCitation":"Johnson, A., 1963, Application of laboratory permeability data: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 63-67, 33 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr6367.","productDescription":"33 p.","numberOfPages":"43","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":344396,"rank":2,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0067/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":156855,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0067/report-thumb.jpg"}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a48e4b07f02db62322f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Johnson, A.I.","contributorId":82676,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"A.I.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":190170,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

These water-level records: (1) provide an index to available ground-water supplies; (2) facilitate the prediction of trends in water levels that will indicate likely changes in storage; (3) aid in the prediction of the base flow of streams; (4) provide information for use in basic research; and (5) provide long-time continuous records of fluctuations of water levels in representative wells, These selected records also serve as a framework to which other types of hydrologic data may be related.</p><p>Prior to 1956, measurements of water levels in observation wells in Oklahoma were included in water-supply papers published annually by the U.S. Geological Survey (table 1). Beginning with the 1956 calendar year, however, Federal water-level reports will contain only records of a selected network of observation wells, and will be published by the U.S. Geological Survey at 5-year intervals. The first of this series, for the 1956-59 period has recently been published.</p><p>This report has been prepared primarily to present water-level records of wells not included in the Federal network. However, for the sake of completeness it includes water-level records of Federal wells that either have been or will be published in Water-Supply Papers since 1955. This report, which contains water-level records for the 5-year period (1956-60), is the first of a series presenting water-level records for all permanent observation wells in Oklahoma. It is planned that future water-level reports will be published at 2-year intervals.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S.Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/ofr63150","usgsCitation":"Hart, D.,

Its waters are the most extensively utilized of all the rivers in Washington.</p>\n<br/>\n<p>The river heads high on the eastern slope of the Cascade Mountains, flows for 180 miles in a generally southeast direction, and discharges into the Columbia River. The western part of the basin is a mountainous area formed by sedimentary, volcanic, and metamorphic rocks, which generally have a low capacity for storing and transmitting water. The eastern part of the basin is. formed by a thick sequence of lava flows that have folded into long ridges and troughs. Downwarped structural basins between many of the ridges are partly filled with younger sedimentary deposits, which at some places are many hundreds of feet thick. The Yakima River flows from structural basin to structural basin through narrow water gaps that have been eroded through the anticlinal ridges. Each basin is also a topographic basin and a ground-water subbasin. A gaging station will measure the total outflow of a drainage area only if it is located at the surface outlet of a ground-water subbasin and then only if the stream basin is nearly coextensive with the ground-water subbasin. Many gaging stations in the Yakima basin are so located. The geology, hydrology, size. and location of 25 ground-water subbasins are described. </p>\n<br/>\n<p>Since the settlement of the valley began, the development of the land and water resources have caused progressive changes in the natural regimen of the basin's runoff. These changes have resulted from diversion of water from the streams, the application of water on the land for irrigation, the storage and release of flood waters, the pumping of ground water, and other factors Irrigation in the Yakima basin is reported 'to have begun about 1864. In 1955 about 425,000 acres were under irrigation. </p>\n<br/>\n<p>During the past 60-odd years many gaging stations have been operated at different sites within the basin. Only stations in the upper reaches, such as those below Keechelus, Kachess, or Cle Elum Lakes, give discharge records which are an accurate measure of the natural outflow of the drainage area. Farther down, stream, as the utilization of water becomes more extensive, the records at a gaging station show the discharge passing a particular point, but they do not reflect the natural outflow of the basin. Large canals divert water for use on lands above a station or carry it around a station for irrigation downstream. The deep sedimentary deposits within subbasins and the overlying alluvial gravels permit downvalley movement of large subsurface flows which bypass the gaging stations, except in the near vicinity of the water gaps. At the water gaps ground water rises to the surface, becoming streamflow, and can be accurately measured. The location of gaging stations within each subbasin is important, therefore, in determining whether the flow measured represents the total downvalley outflow or whether it is merely the surface-water component. Surface and subsurface factors that may affect the discharge records at each gaging station in the Yakima River basin include a description of upstream diversions, surface return flows, bypass canals, storage reservoirs, subsurface bypass flows, ground-water withdrawals, and other items. The available data are not sufficiently complete to permit a quantitative determination of the total basin yield at most gaging stations. However, data on the existing bypass channels, such as canals and drainage ditches, and on related subsurface movement of water provide valuable information necessary to proper use and interpretation of the streamflow records.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Government Printing Office","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","doi":"10.3133/wsp1595","usgsCitation":"Kinnison, H.B., and Sceva, J.E., 1963, Effects of hydraulic and geologic factors on streamflow of the Yakima River Basin, Washington: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1595, Report: vii, 134 p.; 3 Plates: 29.5 x 30.0 inches or smaller, https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1595.","productDescription":"Report: vii, 134 p.; 3 Plates: 29.5 x 30.0 inches or smaller","numberOfPages":"144","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":137648,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1595/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":27507,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1595/plate-1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":27508,"rank":401,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1595/plate-2.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":27509,"rank":402,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1595/plate-3.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":27510,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1595/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"scale":"250000","country":"United States","state":"Washington","otherGeospatial":"Yakima River Basin","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -124.8361,45.5437 ], [ -124.8361,49.0024 ], [ -116.9174,49.0024 ], [ -116.9174,45.5437 ], [ -124.8361,45.5437 ] ] ] } } ] }","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a29e4b07f02db611e92","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Kinnison, Hallard B.","contributorId":84337,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Kinnison","given":"Hallard","email":"","middleInitial":"B.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":144555,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Sceva, Jack E.","contributorId":79086,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Sceva","given":"Jack","email":"","middleInitial":"E.","affiliations":[{"id":595,"text":"U.S. Geological Survey","active":false,"usgs":true}],"preferred":false,"id":144554,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

In connection with a test-drilling program, cooperatively sponsored by the U.S. Geological Survey, the Nassau County Department \r\nof Public Works, and the New York State Water Resources Commission (formerly \r\nWater Power and Control Commission), 13 wells ranging in depth from about \r\n130 to 800 feet were drilled during 1952 and 1953 and screened at various depths \r\nin the Magothy(?) formation and Jameco gravel. On the basis of the preliminary \r\ngeologic, hydrologic, and chemical data from these wells, a detailed investigation \r\nof ground-water conditions from the water table to the bedrock was begun in a \r\n200-square-mile area in southern Nassau and southeastern Queens Counties. \r\nThe Inain purposes of the investigation were to delineate the bodies of fresh and \r\nsalty ground water in the project area, to relate their occurrence and movement \r\nto geologic and hydrologic conditions, to estimate the rate of encroachment, if \r\nany, of the salty water, and to evaluate the effectiveness of the existing network \r\nof outpost wells as detectors of salt-water encroachment. \r\nAbout a million people in the report area, residing mainly in southern Nassau \r\nCounty, are completely dependent on ground water as a source of supply. Fortunately, precipitation averages about 44 inches per year, of which approximately \r\nhalf is estimated to percolate into the ground-water reservoir. \r\nThe ground water is contained in and moves through eight differentiated geologic units composed of unconsolidated gravel, sand, and clay, of Late Cretaceous, \r\nPleistocene, and Recent age, having a maximum total thickness of about 1,700 \r\nfeet. The underlying metamorphic and igneous crystalline basement rocks are \r\nof Precambrian age and are not water bearing. \r\nThe water-yielding units from the surface down are (1) the upper Pleistocene \r\ndeposits, (2) the principal artesian aquifer, composed of the Jameco gravel and \r\nMagothy(?) formation, and (3) the Lloyd sand member of the Raritar formation. \r\nThe confining units are the '20-foot' clay, the Gardiners clay, and the clay member of the Raritan formation. The upper Pleistocene deposits contain an extensive unconfined body of fresh water. Fresh water under artesian conditions is \r\ncontained in the principal artesian aquifer and the Lloyd sand member. The \r\npiezometric surface of the principal artesian aquifer is similar in shape to the south-ward-sloping water table; it ranges in altitude from about sea level to 55 feet \r\nabove. \r\nThe chemical quality of the fresh ground water in most of the area in all aquifers \r\nis good to excellent, and concentrations of dissolved solids and of chloride generally \r\nare below 100 ppm (parts per million) and 10 ppm, respectively. Analyses of \r\nwater samples from selected wells show no progressive increase in concentration of \r\nchloride in most of the area. The data on quality of water have been used to \r\ndelineate one major and several minor bodies of salty ground water. The wedgeshaped main confined salt-water body, in which the concentration of chloride \r\nreaches about 17,000 ppm, is in the Magothy(?) formation and Jameco gravel in \r\nextreme southwestern Nassau County and southeastern Queens County.

These springs emerge from Pennsylvanian, Permian, and Triassic rocks on the east flank of a faulted anticlinal fold. \r\n\r\nIn the vicinity of several springs, metatyuyamunite occurs locally in crystalline calcite veins averaging 3 feet in width but reaching a maximum of 24 feet. The veins are as much as several hundred feet long-and cut vertically through sandstones of Pennsylvanian age overlying the Madison Limestone (Mississippian). This limestone is believed to be the source of the calcite. A 3-foot channel sample cross one calcite vein contains 0.089 percent uranium. Lesser amounts of uranium were obtained from other channel samples. Selected samples contain from 0.39 to 2.2 percent uranium and from 0.25 to 0.86 percent vanadium. \r\n\r\nThree possible sources of the uranium are: (1) Precambrian rocks, (2) Paleozoic rocks, (3) Pliocene(?) tuffaceous strata that were deposited unconformably across older .rocks in both the graphically high and low parts of the area, but were subsequently removed by erosion except for a few small remnants, one of which contains carnotite. \r\n\r\nThere is apparently a close genetic relation between the uraniferous springs and uranium mineralization in the calcite veins. Data from this locality illustrate how uraniferous ground water can be used as a guide in the exploration for areas where uranium deposits may occur. Also demonstrated is the fact that significant quantities of uranium are present in water of some large flowing springs.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey],","doi":"10.3133/ofr6386","usgsCitation":"Love, J.D., 1963, Large uraniferous springs and associated uranium minerals, Shirley Mountains, Carbon County, Wyoming -- A preliminary report: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 63-86, 23 p. ill., folded map ;29 cm., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr6386.","productDescription":"23 p. ill., folded map ;29 cm.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":106333,"rank":700,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_8049.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"},"description":"8049"},{"id":148178,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0086/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":43496,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0086/plate-1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":43497,"rank":401,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0086/plate-2.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":43498,"rank":402,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0086/plate-3.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":43499,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1963/0086/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b1be4b07f02db6a917f","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Love, J.

His theories held sway until the latter part of the 17th century, which marked the first experimental work to determine the source and movement of ground water. Thus founded, the science of ground-water hydrology grew slowly and not until the 19th century is there substantial evidence of conclusions having been based on observational data. The 20th century has witnessed tremendous advances in the science in the methods of field investigation and interpretation of collected data, in the methods of determining the hydrologic characteristics of water-bearing material, and in the methods of inventorying ground-water supplies. Now, as is true of many other disciplines, the science of ground-water hydrology is characterized by frequent advancement of new ideas and techniques, refinement of old techniques, and an increasing wealth of data awaiting interpretation.</p><p>So that its widely scattered staff of professional hydrologists could keep abreast of new ideas and advances in the techniques of groundwater investigation, it has been the practice in the U.S. Geological Survey to distribute such information for immediate internal use. As the methods become better established and developed, they are described in formal publications. Six papers pertaining to widely different phases of ground-water investigation comprise this particular contribution.

The area is underlain by about 70 to 180 feet of glacial drift, including at the top as much as 120 feet of outwash deposits (valley train) of the glacial Mississippi River. The underlying Cambrian bedrock consists of marine sedimentary formations including artesian sandstone aquifers. A hypothetically spilled liquid at the reactor site could follow one or both of two courses, thus: (1) It could flow over the land surface and through an artificial drainage system to the river in a matter of minutes; (2) part or nearly all of it could seep downward to the water table and then move laterally to the river. The time required might range from a few weeks to a year, or perhaps more. The St. Paul and Minneapolis water-supply intakes, 21 and 25 miles downstream, respectively, are the most critical points to be considered in the event of an accidental spill. Based on streamflow and velocity data for the Mississippi River near Anoka, the time required for the maximum concentration of a contaminant to travel from the reactor site to the St. Paul intake was computed to be about 8 hours, at the median annual maximum daily discharge. For this discharge, the maximum concentration at the intake would be about 0.0026 microcurie per cubic foot for the release of 1 curie of activity into the river near the reactor site.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Government Printing Office","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","doi":"10.3133/b1133C","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission","usgsCitation":"Norvitch, R.F., Schneider, R., and Godfrey, R.G., 1963, Geology and hydrology of the Elk River, Minnesota, nuclear-reactor site: U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1133, Document: iv, 25 p.; 2 Plates: 18 x 16 inches, https://doi.org/10.3133/b1133C.","productDescription":"Document: iv, 25 p.; 2 Plates: 18 x 16 inches","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":63222,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/bul/1133c/plate-1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":63223,"rank":401,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/bul/1133c/plate-2.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":63224,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/bul/1133c/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":109385,"rank":700,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_20849.htm","linkFileType":{"id":5,"text":"html"},"description":"20849"},{"id":165594,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/bul/1133c/report-thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"Minnesota","city":"Elk River","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -93.61209869384766,\n              45.261596972270866\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.61209869384766,\n              45.3297027614069\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.51133346557617,\n              45.3297027614069\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.51133346557617,\n              45.261596972270866\n            ],\n            [\n              -93.61209869384766,\n              45.261596972270866\n            ]\n          ]\n        ]\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b32e4b07f02db6b468c","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Norvitch, Ralph F.","contributorId":65456,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Norvitch","given":"Ralph","email":"","middleInitial":"F.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":214511,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Schneider, Robert","contributorId":102460,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Schneider","given":"Robert","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":214513,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Godfrey, Richard G.","contributorId":100046,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Godfrey","given":"Richard","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":214512,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":3}]}}

This report presents data obtained during the first 5 years of the proposed 20-year study. \r\n\r\nPeriodic observations were made at permanent transects in 8 paired fenced and unfenced watersheds to characterize plant and ground cover, determine degree of use by livestock and measure changes in watershed cover. Results after 5 years of study indicate that changes in watershed cover have been relatively small on both grazed and ungrazed areas. Changes that did take place were mainly on shale and mixed type .soil. Ground-cover index on mixed type soil was significantly higher, 4 percent, on ungrazed ,areas than on grazed areas at the end of 5 years. \r\n\r\nPlot records were obtained using the Rocky Mountain Infiltrameter at 12 plots in each of the 8 study watersheds to determine the effect of livestock exclusion on infiltration and sheet erosion. Infiltration rates for the last 20 minutes of both the wet .and dry runs were significantly higher in 1958 than they were 5 years before, but this difference was not associated with treatment because rates on both grazed and ungrazed plots increased about .the same amount. The initial water-absorbing capacity increased significantly on ungrazed plots. No change in erosion rates was observed. \r\n\r\nRainfall was variable and below normal during 4 of the first 5 years of study. Runoff was produced mainly by thunderstorms during the summer months and was characterized by high rates of flow for short periods. Comparison of runoff in grazed and ungrazed watersheds indicates a change in the relation between precipitation and runoff because of exclusion of livestock. More sediment per unit area was produced during the 5 years of study from grazed .areas than from ungrazed areas. \r\n\r\nNo definite trend in small mammal population on grazed and ungrazed water- sheds has yet been determined. Results of preliminary studies on rabbit population indicates that rabbits prefer to inhabit ungrazed areas, but populations were judged to be not high in any area.","largerWorkType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"largerWorkTitle":"Hydrologic effects of land use","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"language":"English","publisher":"U.

The basement rocks in the area consist largely of Precambrian granite and quartzite. These are overlain locally by flat-lying Upper Cretaceous strata composed of thick sections of soft dark-bluish-gray shale and some thin beds of loosely consolidated sandstone. The Cretaceous strata are more than 500 feet thick near the center of the county but gradually pinch out toward the northeast and southwest against the highs of the Precambrian bedrock surface. Glacial drift overlies the Precambrian and Cretaceous rocks and forms the surface of the area. The drift consists largely of till and ranges in thickness from about 10 feet in the north and northeast to approximately 550 feet in the southwest. The most prominent surflcial glacial deposits are five southeast-trending end moraines, two of which are associated with, and parallel to, relatively extensive belts of outwash. Recent deposits averaging less than 20 feet in thickness overlie the glacial drift in stream valleys.</p>\n<p>The principal aquifers in Lyon County are glacial-melt-water deposits of sand and gravel, and sandstone of Cretaceous age. The underlying Precambrian rocks and the Recent alluvium are of only local importance as water sources.</p>\n<p>Melt-water deposits composed of stratified clay and silt as well as sand and gravel occur in channels having surficial expression, in buried channels having no direct surface expression, and as small isolated bodies within the till. Well logs of test holes show that the buried melt-water channels are generally parallel to the surflcial channels. However, melt-water deposits are not necessarily confined to the area beneath the surflcial channel but may extend laterally 1 mile or more beyond its limits. Sand and gravel are commonly interbedded with other melt-water materials. They range in thickness from 10 to 75 feet, are usually less than 1 mile in width, and may be as much as 8 miles in length. Although these aquifers are extensive, they underlie less than 10 percent of the county area. In most places, water from the drift is obtained from small isolated bodies of sand and gravel within the till.</p>\n<p>Water in the glacial drift is usually very hard (more than 500 parts per million) and low in chlorides (less than 50 parts per million). Drift wells generally yield from 2 to 30 gallons per minute; however, in areas where wells tap melt-water-channel deposits, sustained yields of as much as 500 gallons per minute are obtained.</p>\n<p>The sandstone beds of Cretaceous age occur between the Precambrian bedrock surface and an altitude of 825 feet as a basal sandstone, between altitudes of 890 and 1.020 feet, and between altitudes of 1,050 and 1,160 feet. Water-well data, supplemented by test drilling, show that each of these stratigraphic intervals is developed only in the county. The sandstone beds are of low permeability and are usually less than 2 feet thick, but they may be more than 20 feet thick in places. Water from these aquifers range in quality from soft (less than 60 parts per million) to very hard (more than 500 parts per million) and may contain excessive amounts of chloride (500 to 2,000 parts per million). Wells tapping rocks of Cretaceous age usually yield 2 to 7 gallons per minute, but in areas where the sandstone beds are thicker or hydrologically interrelated with aquifers of other geologic units, yields of as much as 75 gallons per minute have been obtained.</p>\n<p>Large quantities of ground water are available from melt-water channels in the county. Moderate quantities, adequate for domestic and small industrial needs, are available from many of the small isolated deposits of sand and gravel in the till. Small quantities of ground water, adequate only for domestic supply, generally can be obtained from Cretaceous sandstone.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Government Printing Office","publisherLocation":"Washington, D.C.","doi":"10.3133/wsp1619N","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with the Division of Waters, Minnesota Department of Conservation and the Marshall Municipal Utilities, Marshall, Minnesota","usgsCitation":"Rodis, H.G., 1963, Geology and occurrence of ground water in Lyon County, Minnesota: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1619, Document: iv, 41 p.; Plate: 27 x 22 inches, https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1619N.","productDescription":"Document: iv, 41 p.; Plate: 27 x 22 inches","onlineOnly":"N","additionalOnlineFiles":"N","costCenters":[{"id":392,"text":"Minnesota Water Science Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":138832,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1619n/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":28901,"rank":400,"type":{"id":17,"text":"Plate"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1619n/plate-1.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":28902,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1619n/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"Minnesota","county":"Lyon County","geographicExtents":"{\"type\":\"FeatureCollection\",\"features\":[{\"type\":\"Feature\",\"geometry\":{\"type\":\"Polygon\",\"coordinates\":[[[-96.0914,44.631],[-95.6023,44.6309],[-95.6028,44.5433],[-95.5938,44.5434],[-95.5921,44.1964],[-96.0628,44.1987],[-96.0788,44.1993],[-96.0747,44.5455],[-96.0932,44.5456],[-96.0914,44.631]]]},\"properties\":{\"name\":\"Lyon\",\"state\":\"MN\"}}]}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4ad8e4b07f02db6848a1","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Rodis, Harry G.","contributorId":25141,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Rodis","given":"Harry","email":"","middleInitial":"G.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":145494,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

A measure of infiltration, the infiltration rate, is usually determined in the field by flooding basins or furrows, sprinkling, or measuring water entry from cylinders (infiltrometer rings). Rates determined by ponding in large areas are considered most reliable, but the high cost usually dictates that infiltrometer rings, preferably 2 feet in diameter or larger, be used. \r\n\r\nThe hydrology of subsurface materials is critical in the study of infiltration. The zone controlling the rate of infiltration is usually the least permeable zone. Many other factors affect infiltration rate--the sediment (soil) structure, the condition of the sediment surface, the distribution of soil moisture or soil- moisture tension, the chemical and physical nature of the sediments, the head of applied water, the depth to ground water, the chemical quality and the turbidity of the applied water, the temperature of the water and the sediments, the percentage of entrapped air in the sediments, the atmospheric pressure, the length of time of application of water, the biological activity in the sediments, and the type of equipment or method used. It is concluded that specific values of the infiltration rate for a particular type of sediment are probably nonexistent and that measured rates are primarily for comparative use. \r\n\r\nA standard field-test method for determining infiltration rates by means of single- or double-ring infiltrometers is described and the construction, installation, and operation of the infiltrometers are discussed in detail.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. G.P.O.,","doi":"10.3133/wsp1544F","usgsCitation":"Johnson, A., 1963, A field method for measurement of infiltration: U.S. Geological Survey Water Supply Paper 1544, v. :ill. ;23 cm. ;27 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wsp1544F.","productDescription":"v. :ill. ;23 cm. ;27 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":138325,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1544f/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":30188,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/1544f/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b25e4b07f02db6aed25","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Johnson, A.I.","contributorId":82676,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Johnson","given":"A.I.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":146424,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}
