Thomas C. Winter, L. E. Bidwell, Robert W. Maclay
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 339
The Wild Rice watershed includes two general physiographic areas- the glacial Lake Agassiz Plain and a glacial moraine. The lake plain is extremely flat in the western part, sloping only a few feet per mile, but in the eastern part the plain is traversed in a north-south direction by long, narrow...

Sediment yields of Wisconsin streams
S. M. Hindall, R.F. Flint
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 376
Sediment in Wisconsin streams causes economic and engineering problems in water management and reduces the value of water for nearly all uses. Sediment produces problems such as reduced reservoir capacity, navigation hazards, increased cost of water treatment, property damage, temporary loss of farmland, destruction of feeding and nesting grounds of...
Water resources of the River Rouge basin, southeastern Michigan
R. L. Knutilla
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 356
The River Rouge basin is characterized by moderately hilly topography to the northwest graduating to a relatively level land surface to the south east.Stream gradients near the northwestern basin divide are relatively steep; but many become more steep in reaches where they cross beach lines of former glacial lakes. In...
Reconnaissance of the Pigeon River, a cold-water river in the northcentral part of Michigan's southern peninsula
G. E. Hendrickson, C. J. Doonan
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 333
The cold-water streams of the northern states provide unique recreational values to the American people (wilderness or semi-wilderness atmosphere, fast-water canoeing, and trout fishing), but the expanding recreational needs must be balanced against the growing demand of water for public and industrial supplies, for irrigation, and for the dilution of...
Ground-water resources of Nelson County, northeastern North Dakota
Joe S. Downey
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 428
This investigation is part of a Statewide program to determine the location and extent of the ground-water reservoirs (aquifers); to evaluate the occurrence and movement of ground water within these aquifers, including the sources of recharge and discharge; and to determine the chemical quality of the ground water.Nelson County covers...
Water resources of the Black River basin, southeastern Michigan
R. L. Knutilla
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 338
The Black River basin is characterized by flat topography in its central part and by more hilly areas located principally along its boundary.Stream gradients are flat, having slopes of less than 10 feet per mile, except in areas near the basin divide and in isolated areas within the basin....

Water resources of the Redwood River watershed, southwestern Minnesota
Wayne A. Van Voast, L.A. Jerabek, R.P. Novitzki
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 345
The Redwood River watershed contains 739 square miles underlain by glacial drift and sedimentary and crystalline rocks. The land surface slopes gently northeastward and eastward from altitudes greater than 1900 feet at the southwestern edge to less than 850 feet at the mouth of the Redwood River in the east. The...

Seismic-reflection records from a survey at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal near Denver, Colorado
Robert E. Mattick, Donald B. Hoover
1970, Open-File Report 70-217
During July 1966, after competitive bidding, a contract was awarded by the U.S. Geological Survey to GeoData Corporation and Geo Prospectors, Inc., both of Tulsa, Oklahoma, for 18 miles of continuous seismic-reflection profiling in the vicinity of a deep injection disposal well (IDW) at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal near Denver,...
Geologic log and chemical data, diamond drill hole 1, Samrah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
P. K. Theobald Jr., Charles E. Thompson, Henry D. Horn
1970, Open-File Report 70-324
Diamond drill hole number 1 at the Samrah ancient mine, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia penetrated a series of mineralized fractures. Lead, zinc, and silver are the principal ore metals and galena and sphalerito are the ore minerals identified to date. Throughout the core there is a somewhat better correlation of...
Remote detection of geochemical soil anomalies
Frank Cogswell Canney
1970, Open-File Report 70-54
This paper describes a preliminary experiment that was made to compare the spectral reflectance from trees growing in soil over a mineral deposit with reflectance from trees of the same species growing in a nearby unmineralized area. Although the measurements were made on a relatively small number of trees, some...

Correlative estimates of streamflow in the upper Colorado River basin
Lamar E. Carroon
1970, Water Supply Paper 1875
Most hydrologic analyses, whether for appraisal of the water resource, feasibility of a particular development, design of a system of operation, assessment of gains or losses from acts of man or natural changes, or almost any other use, require the extension in time of some streamflow records. In the Upper...
