Flood frequency of the Savannah River at Augusta, Georgia
C.L. Sanders Jr., H.E. Kubik, J.T. Hoke Jr., W.H. Kirby
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 90-4024
To fill an increasing need for reliable information on floods of various recurrence intervals on the Savannah River a flood-frequency relation was developed for the long-term gaging station at Augusta, Georgia. The flood-frequency analysis was complicated by the fact that the Savannah River upstream of Augusta has experienced increasing regulation...
Estimates of evapotranspiration in alkaline scrub and meadow communities of Owens Valley, California, using the Bowen-ratio, eddy-correlation, and penman-combination methods
Lowell F. W. Duell Jr.
1990, Water Supply Paper 2370-E
In Owens Valley, evapotranspiration (ET) is one of the largest components of outflow in the hydrologic budget and the least understood. ET estimates for December 1983 through October 1985 were made for seven representative locations selected on the basis of geohydrology and the characteristics of phreatophytic alkaline scrub and meadow...
Geology and ground-water resources of the Memphis Sand in western Tennessee
William Scott Parks, J. K. Carmichael
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 88-4182
The Memphis Sand of the Claiborne Group of Tertiary age underlies approximately 7,400 square miles in western Tennessee. The formation primarily consists of a thick body of veryfine to very coarse sand that includes subordinate lenses or beds of clay and silt at various horizons. The Memphis Sand ranges from...
Flood of December 1987 in central and eastern Arkansas
B.L. Neely Jr.
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4188
Heavy rain fell across Arkansas during December 24-28, 1987. During this period, 6 to 12 inches of rain fell in a 100-mile wide belt extending roughly from Texarkana to West Memphis, Arkansas. The intense rainfall produced flooding throughout much of central and eastern Arkansas. Peak discharges associated with the flood...
Hydrogeology and ground-water-quality conditions at the Emporia- Lyon County Landfill, eastern Kansas, 1988
N. C. Myers, P. R. Bigsby
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 90-4043
Hydrogeology and water-quality conditions at the Emporia-Lyon County Landfill, eastern Kansas, were investigated from April 1988 through April 1989. Potentiometric-surface maps indicated groundwater movement from the northeast and northwest towards the landfill and then south through the landfill to the Cottonwood River. The maps indicate that during periods of low...
Hydrogeology and preliminary assessment of the potential for contamination of the Memphis aquifer in the Memphis area, Tennessee
W. S. Parks
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 90-4092
Detailed maps of the thickness of the Jackson-upper Claibome confining unit and the altitude of the water table in the alluvium andfluvial deposits provide much new information concerning areas where downward leakage is or may be occurringfrom the water-table aquifers to theMemphrj aqutyer in the Memphis area. A detailed map of the altitude of the potentiometric surface...
Hydrogeology of a hazardous-waste disposal site near Brentwood, Williamson County, Tennessee
Patrick Tucci, D. W. Hanchar, R. W. Lee
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4144
Approximately 44,000 gal of industrial solvent wastes were disposed in pits on a farm near Brentwood, Tennessee, in 1978, and contaminants were reported in the soil and shallow groundwater on the site in 1985. In order for the State to evaluate possible remedial-action alternatives, an 18-month study was conducted to...

1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 89-4207
Rainfall amounts of over 5 inches the night of February 13 and the morning of February 14, 1989, caused flooding in areas of Middle and West Tennessee. The towns of Lebanon in Middle Tennessee and Obion in West Tennessee were most severely affected. Most of the business district in Lebanon...
Geohydrology, water quality, and water budgets of Golden Gate Park and the Lake Merced area in the western part of San Francisco, California
E.B. Yates, S. N. Hamlin, L.H. McCann
1990, Water-Resources Investigations Report 90-4080
The groundwater resources in the western part of the San Francisco, groundwater budgets for Golden Gate Park and the Lake Merced area, and a surface-water budget for Lake Merced are described. A continuous groundwater basin underlies a 39-sq-mi coastal strip in the San Francisco Peninsula south of the city. Basin...
