Effects of ground-water development on the proposed Palmetto Bend Dam and Reservoir in southeast Texas
E. T. Baker Jr., C.R. Follett
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-18
Ground water continues to discharge into the Navidad and Lavaca Rivers by seepage outflow even though large amounts of ground water are pumped for irrigation. Although a reduction in streamflow probably has occurred, a complete loss of the low flow of the streams by infiltration to a lowered water table...
Artificial-recharge experiments and operations on the Southern High Plains of Texas and New Mexico
Richmond F. Brown, Donald C. Signor
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-10
Experiments using highly turbid water from playa lakes for injection into the Ogallala Formation have resulted in greatly decreased yield of the recharge wells, Recharge of ground or surface water of good quality has indicated, however, that injection through wells is an effective method of recharging the aquifer. Water that...

Index of time-of-travel studies of the US Geological Survey
Charles W. Boning
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-34
This index identifies locations on streams where the U. S. Geological Survey has investigated the time of travel of a highly soluble material moving through a reach of stream channel. This index provides information only on the location of studied stream reaches; it contains no basic data. It does contain,...
Effects of Urbanization on Floods in the Houston, Texas Metropolitan Area
Steven L. Johnson, Douglas M. Sayre
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-3
Rainfall and runoff data from drainage basins in the Houston metropolitan area and a 60-year rainfall record for the National Weather Service station, Houston-City, were used to simulate 60 annual flood peaks at 26 sites. Selected frequency characteristics, based on these simulated annual peaks, are related to drainage area and...
Stratigraphy of an archeological site, Ocmulgee flood plain, Macon, Georgia
Oliver J. Cosner
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-54
Archeological excavations on the Ocmulgee River flood plain at Ocmulgee National Monument revealed eight sedimentary units of Holocene age. Types of deposits found are natural levee, oberbank deposit, and a probable point bar. Since the 18th century, locally more than 10 feet of sediment has been deposited. These modern sediments...
Electric-analog simulation network of unconsolidated aquifers in the upper Wabash River basin, Indiana
James E. Heisel
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-29
The ground-water budget of the unconsolidated deposits in the upper Wabash River basin was modeled. An electrical-simulation network was used to determine an integrated storage coefficient of 0.003 for the basin. Two practical problems were investigated: a municipal pumping problem and the change in flow regime due to the addition...

An evaluation of water-quality data obtained at four streamflow daily-record stations in Idaho
Kenneth L. Dyer
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-30
Chemical data for four stream-gaging stations in Idaho, each having 6 to 22 years of available records, were analyzed to determine functional relations between concentrations of the major inorganic constituents, specific conductance, and stream discharge. Three of the four stations had sufficient available record for assessing changes in constituent relations...

Geohydrology of the cross-Florida barge canal area, with special reference to the Ocala vicinity
Glen L. Faulkner
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-1
The Cross-Florida Barge Canal route commences at Palatka on the St. Johns River, about 75 miles upstream from the Atlantic Ocean, and extends 110 miles southwestward across Peninsular Florida into deep water in the Gulf of Mexico near Yankeetown. The canal will be equipped with five locks, each 600 feet...

Ground-water hydrology of northern Napa Valley, California
Robert E. Faye
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-13
The alluvium of northern Napa Valley is the principal aquifer of the area and is capable of yielding as much as 3,000 gallons per minute to wells. Generally the larger-yielding wells are along the Napa River where the alluvium is thickest and most permeable. Recharge to the alluvium is chiefly...
