Flood of April 1975 at Williamston, Michigan
R. L. Knutilla, L.A. Swallow
1975, Open-File Report 75-289
On April 18 between 5 p.m. and 12 p.m. the city of Williamston experienced an intense rain storm that caused the Red Cedar River and the many small streams in the area to overflow their banks and resulted in the most devastating flood since at least 1904. Local officials estimated...
Ground-water quality in Indian Wells Valley, California
James W. Warner
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-8
Indian Wells Valley is in a semiarid region of the Mojave Desert. The U.S. Naval Weapons Center at China Lake and nearby communities depend upon an adequate source of ground water for their existence. Much of the ground water is of poor quality. Most of the ground-water pumping occurs in...
Chemical and biological quality of water in part of the Everglades, southeastern Florida
Bradley G. Waller, James E. Earle
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-56
A comprehensive monitoring network was established in a part of the Everglades to evaluate the quality of water being delivered to Everglades National Park. Physical, chemical, and biological parameters were determined in surface water, bottom sediment, and bulk precipitation (rainfall and dry fallout).The geology of the area, bottom sediment, bulk...
The Miocene aquifer system in Mississippi
Roy Newcome
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-46
A large amount of information is available on the aquifers of Mississippi. Reports resulting from various areal studies have described the ground-water resources of the areas concerned, but no reports dealing specifically with the statewide occurrence of individual aquifer systems have been prepared previously. A series of "aquifer atlases" was...
Satellite relay and processing of hydrologic data in south Florida
E.T. Wimberly
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-12
Management of water in south Florida requires current hydrologic data on water levels and rainfall. This need is being met by a data processing system which provides near-real-time data from remote areas. The flow of data is from data-collection platforms at field sites via LANDSAT-1 satellite to the National Aeronautics...
Flood-prone areas of Gadsden County, Florida
Roger P. Rumenik, C.A. Pascale, D.F. Tucker
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-31
Gadsden County is an area of 508 square miles in northwest Florida. The topography of the county is diverse and ranges in altitude from about 50 to 300 feet above mean sea level. Well drained steep hillsides and narrow ridgetops give way to broad, nearly level, poorly drained plateaus which...
Drainage areas for Illinois streams
Kent M. Ogata
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-13
Drainage areas were tabulated for all streams in Illinois which drain over 100 square miles. at sites where streamflow data have been collected, and at other selected locations. Areas were planimetered on U.S. Geological Survey topographic quadrangle maps and balanced to known areas taken from Smithsonian Geographical Tables of areas of quadrilaterals of...
Simulation of dissolved oxygen and biochemical oxygen demand, Plantation Canal, Broward County, Florida with an evaluation of the QUAL-I model for use in south Florida
Thomas N. Russo, Raul S. McQuivey
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-59
A mathematical model; QUAL-I, developed by the Texas Water Development Board, was evaluated as a management tool in predicting the spatial and temporal distribution of dissolved oxygen and biochemical oxygen demand in Plantation Canal. Predictions based on the QUAL-I model, which was verified only against midday summer-flow conditions, showed that...
Occurrence of pesticide residues in four streams draining different land-use areas in Pennsylvania
John F. Truhlar, Lloyd A. Reed
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-6
Samples of water, bed material, fish, and soil were collected in four small drainage basins in Pennsylvania in 1969-71 and analyzed to determine the concentrations of chlorinated-hydrocarbon insecticides. Water samples only were also analyzed for phenoxy-acid herbicides. Each basin studied represents a predominant land-use classification—forested, general farming, residential, and orchard...
Hydrology of the Lake Wingra basin, Dane County, Wisconsin
Edward L. Oakes, G. E. Hendrickson, E.E. Zuehls
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-17
A water budget was prepared to identify the components of the hydrologic system in the Lake Wingra basin. The Lake Wingra basin, which includes a small eutrophic lake within the city of Madison, Wis., is partly a protected area and partly an urbanized area. Measured and estimated inflow and outflow...
