Geology and hydrology of the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation, Montana
Douglas C. Alverson
1965, Water Supply Paper 1576-F
The Fort Belknap Indian Reservation includes an area of 970 square miles in north-central Montana. At its north edge is the Milk River valley, which is underlain by Recent alluvium of the Milk River, glacial deposits, and alluvial deposits of the preglacial Missouri River, which carved and occupied this valley...
Water resources in the vicinity of municipalities on the eastern Mesabi Iron Range and the Vermilion Iron Range, northeastern Minnesota
R. D. Cotter, H. L. Young, L. R. Petri, C. H. Prior
1965, Water Supply Paper 1759-F
Additional supplies of water are available near the municipalities on the eastern Mesabi Iron Range and the Vermilion Iron Range. On the eastern Mesabi Range the potential for additional development of both ground-water and surface-water supplies are good, and on the Vermilion Range the best potential for development is from...
Specific yield - laboratory experiments showing the effect of time on column drainage
Robert C. Prill, A.I. Johnson, Donald Arthur Morris
1965, Water Supply Paper 1662-B
The increasing use of ground water from many major aquifers in the United States has required a more thorough understanding of gravity drainage, or specific yield. This report describes one phase of specific yield research by the U.S. Geological Survey's Hydrologic Laboratory in cooperation with the California Department of Water...
Geology and water resources of Portage County, Wisconsin
Charles Lee Roy Holt
1965, Water Supply Paper 1796
Portage County has abundant resources of generally good quality water and, although water problems exist locally, depletion or general scarcity of water is not likely in the foreseeable future. The county receives annually about 31 inches of precipitation, of which about 21 inches is lost as evaportranspiration. The average annual water...
Geology and ground water of the Tualatin Valley, Oregon
D. H. Hart, R. C. Newcomb
1965, Water Supply Paper 1697
The Tualatin Valley proper consists of broad valley plains, ranging in altitude from 100 to 300 feet, and the lower mountain slopes of the drainage basin of the Tualatin River, a tributary of the Willamette River in northwestern Oregon. The valley is almost entirely farmed. Its population is increasing rapidly,...
Summary of floods in the United States during 1961
J.O. Rostvedt
1965, Water Supply Paper 1810
This report describes the most outstanding floods in the United States during 1961. The most damaging floods during the year were those caused by snowmelt in March and April in the upper Mississippi River basin and those accompanying Hurricane Carla in September.Hurricane Carla traveled northward along the east edge of...
Geology and ground water in the central part of Apache County, Arizona
J. P. Akers
1965, Water Supply Paper 1771
The central part of Apache County, Ariz., includes an area of about 3,300 square miles between the Navajo Indian Reservation to the north and U.S. Highway 60 to the south. Sedimentary rocks in the area range from Pennsylvanian to Quaternary in age and from 2,000 to more than 6,000 feet...
Quality of surface waters in the lower Columbia River Basin
John F. Santos
1965, Water Supply Paper 1784
This report, made during 1959-60, provides reconnaissance data on the quality of waters in the lower Columbia River basin ; information on present and future water problems in the basin; and data that can be employed both in water-use studies and in planning future industrial, municipal, and agricultural expansion within...
Magnitude and frequency of floods in the United States, part 3–A. Ohio River Basin except Cumberland and Tennessee River Basins
Paul R. Speer, Charles R. Gamble
1965, Water Supply Paper 1675
This report presents a means of determining the probable magnitude and frequency of floods of any recurrence interval from 1.1 to 50 years at most points on streams in the Ohio River basin except Cumberland and Tennessee River basins.Curves are defined that show the relation between the drainage area and...
Geology and ground-water resources of Waushara County, Wisconsin
William Kelly Summers
1965, Water Supply Paper 1809-B
Abundant ground water for irrigation is available in the outwash deposits in western Waushara County, and many more large-capacity wells can be developed in these deposits without seriously lowering the water level. Pumping for irrigation temporarily lowers water levels in the vicinity of the wells but has not lowered regional...
Hydrology of melt-water channels in southwestern Minnesota
Gerald L. Thompson
1965, Water Supply Paper 1809-K
Melt-water channel deposits are among the most important aquifers in southwestern Minnesota, but permeable zones within the deposits are difficult to locate. Interpretation of the depositional history of proglacial channel deposits from aerial photographs and test-hole samples indicates the position of the permeable zones. Generally, the coarse-grained deposits are in...
