A network for continuous monitoring of water quality in the Sabine River basin, Texas and Louisiana
J.F. Blakey, P.W. Skinner
1973, Open-File Report 73-25
The proposed water-quality network for the Sabine River Basin of Texas and Louisiana consists of nine monitoring stations, a central control station, a slave-central station, and a leased-line telecommunications system. This monitoring network would provide continuous transmission of water-quality data to the office of the water manager. Level I operations at...

Roughness coefficients for stream channels in Arizona
B. N. Aldridge, J.M. Garrett
1973, Open-File Report 73-3
When water flows in an open channel, energy is lost through friction along the banks and bed of the channel and through turbulence within the channel. The amount of energy lost is governed by channel roughness, which is expressed in terms of a roughness coefficient. An evaluation of the roughness...
Fluvial sediment characteristics of the Kansas River at Wamego, Kansas, 1957-70
C.D. Albert
1973, Open-File Report 73-2
Fluvial-sediment samples have been collected from the Kansas River at Wamego from 1957-70 by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Kansas Water Resources Board. During this period. the stream-runoff pattern of the basin has been altered by constructions of Tuttle Creek and Milford Reservoirs. An analysis of data shows...

Low-flow characteristics of streams in the Puget Sound region, Washington
F.T. Hidaka
1973, Open-File Report 72-163
Periods of low streamflow are usually the most critical factor in relation to most water uses. The purpose of this report is to present data on low-flow characteristics of streams in the Puget Sound region, Washington, and to briefly explain some of the factors that influence low flow in the...

Streamflow, sediment, and turbidity in the Mad River basin, Humboldt and Trinity Counties, California
William M. Brown III
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-36
The Mad River discharged an average suspended-sediment load of 2,710,000 tons per year during a 13-year period beginning October 1957. Preliminary analysis of data collected during the 1971 water year indicated that about 66 percent of the suspended sediment was derived from sources upstream from a proposed reservoir site on...

Artificial recharge in the Waterman Canyon-East Twin Creek area, San Bernardino County, California
J. W. Warner, J. A. Moreland
1973, Open-File Report 73-358
This is a study of the feasibility of recharging, in the Waterman Canyon-East Twin Creek area, imported water from northern California by way of the State Water Project beginning in 1972. The feasibility of recharging 30,000 acre-feet of water a year in the Waterman Canyon-East Twin Creek area will depend...
Base of fresh ground water approximately 3,000 micromhos in the Sacramento Valley and Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California
Charles F. Berkstresser Jr.
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-40
The study area consists of about 6,600 square miles; about 5,500 square miles of the floor of the Sacramento Valley, and about 1,100 square miles of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The Sacramento Valley, as defined by Bryan (1923, p. 8), extends from Red Bluff 145 miles southward to Suisun Bay. ...

Salt-water movement in the lower Withlacoochee River-Cross Florida Barge Canal Complex
Peter W. Bush
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 5-72
Construction of the west end of the Cross Florida Barge Canal changed the regimen of the lower Withlacoochee River. The investigation was made to determine how salt water from the Gulf of Mexico moves in the river-canal complex, and how the factors that control salt-water movement--tides and discharge--have changed since...
