The concept of entropy in landscape evolution
Luna Bergere Leopold, Walter Basil Langbein
1962, Professional Paper 500-A
The concept of entropy is expressed in terms of probability of various states. Entropy treats of the distribution of energy. The principle is introduced that the most probable condition exists when energy in a river system is as uniformly distributed as may be permitted by physical constraints. From these general...

A practical field technique for measuring reservoir evaporation utilizing mass-transfer theory
G. E. Harbeck Jr.
1962, Professional Paper 272-E
Studies of evaporation made in recent years nave provided values of the mass-transfer coefficient, N, in the equation E=Nut(e0—ea) for reservoirs having surface areas ranging from 1 to nearly 30,000 acres. The apparent correlation of N with reservoir surface area may in large part be associated with variations in the...

Effect of reservoir storage on peak flow
William D. Mitchell
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-C
For observation of small-basin flood peaks, numerous crest-stage gages now are operated at culverts in roadway embankments. To the extent that they obstruct the natural flood plains of the streams, these embankments serve to create detention reservoirs, and thus to reduce the magnitude of observed peak flows. Hence, it is...

Ground water in the Wupatki and Sunset Crater National Monuments, Coconino County, Arizona
Oliver J. Cosner
1962, Water Supply Paper 1475-J
The Wupatki and Sunset Crater National Monuments are 15 and 30 miles, respectively, northeast of Flagstaff on the San Francisco Plateau. They are in the eastern part of the San Francisco volcanic field and on the southwest flank of the Black Mesa basin. The Supai formation, Coconino sandstone, Kaibab limestone,...
Evolution of methods for evaluating the occurrence of floods
M. A. Benson
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-A
A brief summary is given of the history of methods of expressing flood potentialities, proceeding from simple flood formulas to statistical methods of flood-frequency analysis on a regional basis. Current techniques are described and evaluated. Long-term flood records in the United States show no justification for the adoption of a...
Constant-head pumping test of a multiaquifer well to determine characteristics of individual aquifers
Gordon D. Bennett, E.P. Patten
1962, Water Supply Paper 1536-G
This report describes the theory and field procedures for determining the transmissibility and storage coefficients and the original hydrostatic head of each aquifer penetrated by a multiaquifer well. The procedure involves pumping the well in such a manner that the drawdown of water level is constant while the discharges of...
