Arthur E. Flint, Charles E. Brown
1953, Open-File Report 53-72
The exploratory holes were drilled as part of a larger geologic investigation, the objective of which is to determine in the Dubuque, Iowa, area the probable occurrence of zinc and lead ore stratigraphically lower than that which has been mined.The primary purpose of the drilling was to supply information required...
Ground-water conditions in the Milwaukee-Waukesha area, Wisconsin
Frank Clingan Foley, W.C. Walton, W.J. Drescher
1953, Water Supply Paper 1229
Three major aquifers underlie the Milwaukee-Waukesha area: sandstones of Cambrian and Ordovician age, Niagara dolomite of Silurian age, and sand and gravel deposits of Pleistocene age. The Maquoketa shale of Ordovician age acts as a more or less effective seal between the Pleistocene deposits and Niagara dolomite above and the...

Floods of May-July 1950 in southeastern Nebraska
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1953, Water Supply Paper 1137-D
Four floods occurred in southeast Nebraska during the period of May to July 1950. Two of these were the greatest known in the State if the size of the drainage areas is considered, and the other two were not so spectacular but were of notable size and of possible hydrologic...
Floods of November-December 1950 in the Central Valley basin, California
C. G. Paulsen
1953, Water Supply Paper 1137-F
The flood of November-December 1950 in the Central Valley basin was the greatest in most parts of the basin since the turn of the century and probably was exceeded in the lower San Joaquin River basin only by the historic flood of 1862. In respect to monetary loss, the 1950...

Irrigation and streamflow depletion in Columbia River basin above The Dalles, Oregon
Wilbur Douglas Simons
1953, Water Supply Paper 1220
The Columbia River is the largest stream in western United States. Above The Dalles, Oregon, it drains an area of 237,000 square miles, of which 39,000 square miles is in Canada. This area is largely mountainous and lies between the Rocky Mountains and the Cascade Range. The Kootenai, Pend Oreille,...

C. G. Paulsen
1953, Water Supply Paper 1137-G
In areal coverage and magnitude of peak discharge the floods of April-May 1950 in the Missouri River Basin in North and South Dakota were unprecedented in the area. These floods were characterized by an extremely late spring breakup of ice, by great flood peaks resulting from snow melt, and by...
