Determination of radium in water
Franklin Butt Barker, J. O. Johnson
1964, Water Supply Paper 1696-B
Radium isotopes are common radioactive constituents of natural waters. The concentration of radium-226 in potable water is of particular significance because this isotope is generally considered the most hazardous of all radionuclides with respect to ingestion. The approximate concentration of radium-226 is determined after coprecipitating radium with barium sulfate. The...
Geology and hydrology of the West Milton area, Saratoga County, New York
Frederick K. Mack, F. H. Pauszek, John R. Crippen
1964, Water Supply Paper 1747
This report describes the geology, ground-water conditions, streamflow characteristics, and quality of water in the West Milton area, Saratoga County, N.Y. The West Milton area is in the east-central part of New York in the hilly region that forms a transition zone between the Adirondack Mountains and the Hudson-Mohawk valley...
Field measurement of alkalinity and pH
Ivan Barnes
1964, Water Supply Paper 1535-H
The behavior of electrometric pH equipment under field conditions departs from the behavior predicted from Nernst's law. The response is a linear function of pH, and hence measured pH values may be corrected to true pH if the instrument is calibrated with two reference solutions for each measurement. Alkalinity titrations...
Ground-water geology of the Dickson, Lawrenceburg, and Waverly areas in the western Highland Rim, Tennessee
Melvin V. Marcher, Roy H. Bingham, Richard Edwin Lounsbury
1964, Water Supply Paper 1764
Ground-water supplies in the Dickson, Lawrenceburg, and Waverly areas are obtained from wells and springs in limestone and chert formations of Missisippian age. In the Dickson area most of the wells and springs are in Warsaw Limestone. In the Lawrenceburg and Waverly areas, ground-water supplies are obtained from Fort Payne...
Quality of Delaware River water at Trenton, New Jersey
Leo T. McCarthy Jr., Walter B. Keighton
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-X
Water in the Delaware River at Trenton, NJ, is a mixture of several types--water from the mountainous headwater region, water from the coal-mining regions, and water from the limestone valleys. The quantities of these types of water, in relation to the total quantity of water at Trenton, vary with changes...
Geology and ground-water resources of Washington County, Colorado
Harold E. McGovern
1964, Water Supply Paper 1777
Washington County, in northeastern Colorado, has an area of 2,520 square miles. The eastern two-thirds of the county, part of the High Plains physiographic section, is relatively flat and has been moderately altered by the deposition of loess and dune sand, and by stream erosion. The western one-third is a...
Methods of determining permeability, transmissibility and drawdown
Ray Bentall
1964, Water Supply Paper 1536-I
If the Theis graphical method is used for determining the hydraulic constants of an aquifer under water-table conditions, the observed drawdowns should be corrected for the decrease in saturated thickness. This is especially true if the drawdown is a large fraction of the original saturated thickness, for then the computed...
Ground-water resources of Waupaca County, Wisconsin
Charles F. Berkstresser
1964, Water Supply Paper 1669-U
Waupaca County is in east-central Wisconsin. No serious ground-water problems existed in 1960 except in a few localities where crystalline rock is near land surface or is covered by nearly impermeable till. The use of ground water for irrigation has not appreciably affected ground-water levels. The county is covered by Pleistocene...
Ground water in the Sirte area, Tripolitania, United Kingdom of Libya
William Ogilbee
1964, Water Supply Paper 1757-C
The present study of the ground-water conditions in the Sirte area was made during December 1961 and March-April 1962 at the request of officials of the Government of Libya. Particular attention was given to the potential of the fresh-water aquifer near Qasr Bu Itadi as a source of water for...
Water requirements of the petroleum refining industry
Louis Ethelbert Otts Jr.
1964, Water Supply Paper 1330-G
About 3,500 million gallons of water was withdrawn daily in 1955 for use by petroleum refineries in the United States. This was about 3 percent of the estimated daily withdrawal of industrial water in the United States in 1955. An average of 468 gallons of water was required to refine...
