Geology and ground-water resources of Galveston County, Texas
Ben McDowell Petitt, Allen George Winslow
1957, Water Supply Paper 1416
Galveston County, on the Texas gulf coast, is underlain by alternating beds of sand and clay. These sand and clay strata crop out in belts that roughly parallel the coastline and dip gently southeastward at an angle gre? +,er than the slope of the land, thereby creating artesian aquifers. The...
The Gas Hills uranium district and some probable controls for ore deposition
Howard Davis Zeller
1957, Trace Elements Memorandum 1074
Uranium deposits occur in the upper coarse-grained facies of the Wind River formation of Eocene age in the Gas Hills district of the southern part of the Wind River Basin. Some of the principal deposits lie below the water table in the unoxidized zone and consist of uraninite and coffinite...
Floods of April-June 1952 in Utah and Nevada
J. V. B. Wells
1957, Water Supply Paper 1260-E
The floods of April-June 1952 in the Great Basin and in the Green River basin in Utah came as the result of the heaviest snow cover recorded, a long period of near-record subnormal temperature during March and early April, and an abrupt change to above-normal temperature that induced rapid melting.Rainfall...
Floods of April-June 1957 in Oklahoma and western Arkansas
D.L. Weiss, C.W. Sullivan
1957, Open-File Report 57-127
Floods of unusual magnitude in volume for the three-month period in Oklahoma and western Arkansas resulted from several heavy rains. In one storm period 20 inches of precipitation fell within 24 hours, on May 15, 16, near Hennessey, Okla., according to information obtained by a 'bucket survey.' Total precipitation for...
Development of ground water from the Carrizo sand and Wilcox group in Dimmit, Zavala, Maverick, Frio, Atacosa, Median, Bexar, Live Oak, McMullen, La Salle, and Webb Counties, Texas
E. A. Moulder
1957, Open-File Report 57-77
The development of ground water for irrigation from the Carrizo sand south and southwest of San Antonio, Tex., has increased rapidly during the past few years. Declining pumping water levels in irrigation wells, caused by increased withdrawals, have caused considerable concern among the residents of the area. In response, the...
A field method for the determination of calcium and magnesium in limestone and dolomite
Leonard Shapiro, Walter Wallace Brannock
1957, Open-File Report 57-99
The method is an adaptation of a procedure described by Betz and Noll1 in 1950. Calcium and magnesium are determined by visual titration using Versene (disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate) with Murexide (ammonium purpurate) as the indicator for calcium and Eriochrome Black T as the indicator for magnesium....
Hydrology and water law: what is their future common ground?
Arthur M. Piper, Harold E. Thomas
1957, Open-File Report 57-90
We live in an age of social and economic evolution--evolution so deep reaching and rapid it constitutes ad revolution in numerous fields of human concern. Long-standing concepts of what is appropriate and orderly face drastic modification if they are to survive. To this situation the principles of applied hydrology and...
Surface water supply of eastern and central North Carolina
Edward B. Rice
1957, Open-File Report 57-96
None of the many factors that influence the economic growth of eastern and central North Carolina plays a more important role than water. Adequate water supply for municipal, rural domestic, industrial, and agricultural uses, is a basic need of any region....
Drainage area data for Alabama streams
J.S. Stallings, L.B. Peirce
1957, Open-File Report 57-106
The drainage area of a river basin is an important parameter in many engineering equations used for hydrologic design. It is not a parameter, however, that always requires precise measurement. Factors in the hydrologic cycle such as rainfall, runoff, transpiration, and infiltration cannot be measured nearly as closely as drainage...
