Effects of converting sagebrush cover to grass on the hydrology of small watersheds at Boco Mountain, Colorado
Gregg C. Lusby
1979, Water Supply Paper 1532-J
Changes in runoff and sediment yield caused by changing sagebrush cover to grass cover were studied at four small watersheds in western Colorado during a 9-year period, from 1965 to 1978. Measurements of runoff and sediment yield from the four watersheds were made for 8 years, at which time two...

Annual water-resources review, White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, 1978
R. R. Cruz
1979, Open-File Report 79-985
Ground-water data were collected in 1978 at White Sands Missile Range in south-central New Mexico. Total ground-water pumpage in 1978 was 692,045,700 gallons or 7,248,300 less than in 1977. Wells at the Post Headquarters produced 98 percent of the total volume. Water levels in test wells around the Post Headquarters...

Preliminary study of wastewater movement in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, October 1976 through September 1977
Edward Riley Cox
1979, Open-File Report 79-684
Studies were made from October 1976 through September 1977 to determine the effects on lakes and streams of wastewater effluents that percolate from sewage lagoons at four sites in Yellowstone National Park. Ground-water mounds have built up under the lagoons as percolation of effluents occurred. Percolating effluents mix with ground...
