Dissolved-solids discharge to the oceans from the conterminous United States
Donald K. Leifeste
1974, Circular 685
Dissolved-solids data from 54 river basins for 1966-69 were used to compute the amount of dissolved material contributed to the oceans from the conterminous United States. The computations show that about 264,000,000 tons are discharged annually. The Gulf of Mexico receives the largest load, about 183,000,000 tons, of which about...

Floods of September-October 1967 in south Texas and northeastern Mexico
Elmer E. Schroeder, R.U. Grozier, D. C. Hahl, A.E. Hulme
1974, Water Supply Paper 1880-B
Floods produced by Hurricane Beulah during September and October 1967 were outstanding because of the magnitude of the stage and discharge and because of the number of river basins affected. Previously known maximum stages were exceeded, at the downstream station, in five river basins in Texas by amounts ranging from...

Surface-water records for the 1973 water year for California, including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, are given in this report, Records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States also are included. The records were collected and computed by the...
Sediment transport by streams draining into the Delaware Estuary
Lawrence J. Mansue, Allen B. Commings
1974, Water Supply Paper 1532-H
The quantity of sediment transported by streams draining into the Delaware estuary from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware varies areally according to geology, physiography, and land use. Of the estimated total sediment load of 1.6 million tons entering the Delaware estuary annually, about 48 percent is contributed by the Delaware...
