Observations on the pre-nesting activity of the Purple Gallinule (Porphyrula martinica) were made by me at the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, Jasper County, South Carolina from 9 to 16 April 1960, 12 to 23 April 1961, and 28 to 30 April 1963. Jasper County is in extreme southeastern South Carolina. The Refuge headquarters is approximately 10 miles (16 km) up the Savannah River from the port of Savannah, and about 20 miles from the ocean.

The data were collected and computed by the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey, under the direction of Eugene Brown, district chemist, Quality of Water Branch.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey, Water Division","publisherLocation":"Sacramento, CA","doi":"10.3133/wdrCA63Water Quality","collaboration":"Prepared in cooperation with California Department of Water Resources, California Water Pollution Control Board, Monterey County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, Bureau of Reclamation, United States Department of the Interior, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers","usgsCitation":"Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey, 1963, Quality of waters in California (Legacy Report): U.S. Geological Survey Water Data Report CA-63-Water Quality, ix, 352 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wdrCA63Water Quality.","productDescription":"ix, 352 p.","costCenters":[{"id":629,"text":"Water Resources Division","active":false,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":259978,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/usgs_thumb.jpg"},{"id":259976,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wdr/1963/ca-63/WRD-1963-qw.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"country":"United States","state":"California","geographicExtents":"{ \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\", \"features\": [ { \"type\": \"Feature\", \"properties\": {}, \"geometry\": { \"type\": \"Polygon\", \"coordinates\": [ [ [ -124.4,32.5 ], [ -124.4,42 ], [ -114.13333333333334,42 ], [ -114.13333333333334,32.5 ], [ -124.4,32.5 ] ] ] } } ] }","edition":"Legacy Report","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a917de4b0c8380cd802b6","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey","contributorId":128075,"corporation":true,"usgs":false,"organization":"Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey","id":535386,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":71004,"text":"wdrCO631 - 1963 - Surface water records of Colorado, water year 1963","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2012-02-02T00:13:46","indexId":"wdrCO631","displayToPublicDate":"2005-08-09T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1963","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":340,"text":"Water Data Report","code":"WDR","active":false,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"CO-63-1","title":"Surface water records of Colorado, water year 1963","language":"ENGLISH","doi":"10.3133/wdrCO631","usgsCitation":"Geological Survey, U., 1963, Surface water records of Colorado, water year 1963: U.S. Geological Survey Water Data Report CO-63-1, 335 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/wdrCO631.","productDescription":"335 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":185750,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wdr/1963/co-63-1/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":90532,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/wdr/1963/co-63-1/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4afee4b07f02db69793b","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Geological Survey, U.S.","contributorId":26017,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Geological Survey","given":"U.S.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":283480,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}} ,{"id":52436,"text":"ofr64158 - 1963 - Water resources of the Virgin Islands, a preliminary appraisal, 1963","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2024-02-28T15:01:49.628683","indexId":"ofr64158","displayToPublicDate":"2004-06-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1963","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":330,"text":"Open-File Report","code":"OFR","onlineIssn":"2331-1258","printIssn":"0196-1497","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"64-158","title":"Water resources of the Virgin Islands, a preliminary appraisal, 1963","docAbstract":"Rainfall in the Virgin Islands averages about 44 inches per year, yet fresh water is in short supply, and the general impression of the islands is one of dryness. Land slopes are steep and runoff from rainstorms flows rapidly to the sea in the numerous, short, steep stream courses. During most dry seasons only a few streams maintain flow along any part of their course. Guinea Gut, the only stream in St. John known to have had continual flow during the first half of 1963, had a minimum flow of 3,500 gallons per day (gpd). The flow of Turpentine Run, the largest stream in St. Thomas, dropped to 15,000 gpd during the same period, and the flow of River Gut, the largest stream in St. Croix, dropped to about 70,000 gpd. In past years the flow of the streams has been less at times; in fact, Turpentine Run reportedly did not flow during part of 1923 and probably it has been dry at times since then. The streams thus are not reliable sources of large water supplies unless storage is provided. The building of reservoirs has been discouraged by several factors including the apparent scarcity of good sites, the lack of appreciable stream flow most of the time, and the large amount of sediment carried by the streams during floods.

The advantages of full development of the existing area within a city before expanding city boundaries, are related to both economics and civic pride. The expansion of city boundaries usually results in higher per capital costs for the operation of city governments.
Certainly no responsible city official would oppose reasonable development of watersheds and flood plains and thus sacrifice an increase in tax revenue. Within the words \"reasonable development\" lies the problem faced by these officials. They are aware that the natural function of a stream channel, and its associated flood plain is to carry away excess water in time of flood. They are also aware that failure to recognize this has often led to haphazard development on flood plains with a consequent increase in flood damages. In the absence of factual data defining the risk involved in occupying flood plains, stringent corrective and preventative measures must be taken to regulate man's activities on flood plains to a point beyond normal precaution.
Flood-flow characteristics in the reach of White Rock Creek that lies between the northern city boundary of Dallas and Northwest Highway (Loop 12) at the upper end of White Rock Lake, are presented in this report. Hydrologic data shown include history and magnitude of floods, flood profiles, outlines of areas inundated by three floods, and estimates of mean velocities of flow at selected points.
Approximate areas inundated by floods of April 1942 and July 1962 along White Rock Creek and by the flood of October 1962 along Cottonwood Creek, Floyd Branch, and Jackson Branch, are delineated on maps. Greater floods have undoubtedly occurred in the past but no attempt is made to show their probable overflow limits because basic data on such floods could not be obtained. Depths of inundation can be estimated from the information shown. Elevations shown are in feet above mean sea level, datum of 1929.
The data and computations supporting the results given herein are in the files of the Geological Survey in Austin, Texas.
