Severe floods occurred in Puerto Rico twice in 1985. During May 15-19, 1985, as much as 25 in. of rainfall produced significant floods along north and north-central basins in the island. A nearly stationary tropical depression affected Puerto Rico during October 5-8, 1985, resulting in 24-hr precipitation totals of as...

January 1987 water levels, and data related to water-level changes, western and south-central Kansas
B.J. Dague
1987, Open-File Report 87-241
Hydrologic data related to water level measurements were collected in observation wells in western and south-central Kansas. The measurements were made in midwinter when pumping was minimal and water levels had recovered, for the most part, from the effects of pumping during the previous irrigation season. Annual hydrologic data are...

The principal mission of the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, in Kansas is to investigate the occurrence, quantity, quality, distribution, and movement of surface and groundwater throughout the State. Primary activities include the systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of hydrologic data, evaluation of water demands, and water resources research....
Geology of the Wadi Ash Shu'bah Quadrangle, Sheet 26 E, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
James E. Quick, Jeff L. Doebrich
1987, Open-File Report 87-501
The Wadi Ash Shu'bah quadrangle, located in the north-central part of the Arabian Shield, is underlain by nine Precambrian volcano-sedimentary formations and a wide compositional range of Precambrian intrusive rocks. Late Proterozoic to early Paleozoic rocks of the Jibalah Group crop out in the southwestern part of the quadrangle. Paleozoic...
Preprocessor and postprocessor computer programs for a radial-flow finite-element model
A. A. Pucci Jr., D. A. Pope
1987, Open-File Report 87-680
Preprocessing and postprocessing computer programs that enhance the utility of the U.S. Geological Survey radial-flow model have been developed. The preprocessor program: (1) generates a triangular finite element mesh from minimal data input, (2) produces graphical displays and tabulations of data for the mesh , and (3) prepares an input...
Streamflow and cross-section data for the Tombigbee River between Gainesville and Demopolis locks and dams
W. L. Psinakis, R. A. Gardner
1987, Open-File Report 87-202
A review of records and historical research of floods indicate that the flood of April 15-18, 1979, was the highest recorded this century along the reach of the Tombigbee River that is now bounded upstream by Gainesville Lock and Dam and downstream by Demopolis Lock and Dam. The peak discharge...
Streamflow and cross-section data for the Tombigbee River between Aliceville and Gainesville locks and dams
