Estimated permeabilities for soils in the Sacramento Valley, California
Gilbert L. Bertoldi
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-51
Analysis of engineering and hydrologic data from 15 previous soil studies, analysis of particle-size distribution, and analysis of descriptions of soil profiles show that 50 percent of the Sacramento Valley area has soils having permeabilities characterized by infiltration rates of less than 2 feet per day (0.6 meter per day)....
Mineral resources of Antarctica
Nancy A. Wright, Paul L. Williams, editor(s)
1974, Circular 705
Although the existence of mineral deposits in Antarctica is highly probable, the chances of finding them are quite small. Minerals have been found there in great variety but only as occurrences. Manganese nodules, water (as ice), geothermal energy, coal, petroleum, and natural gas are potential resources that could perhaps be...
Faults and their potential hazards in Santa Cruz County, California
N. Timothy Hall, Andrei M. Sarna-Wojcicki, William R. Dupre
1974, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 626
This report and map area designed to provide Santa Cruz County with basic data on the location, pattern, recency of movement, potential for future surface rupture, and anticipated earthquake magnitudes and recurrence intervals for several of the faults located there for consideration in the county's land-use planning program and the...
Floods in Indiana: technical manual for estimating their magnitude and frequency
L.G. Davis
1974, Circular 710
This manual provides methods for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods on unregulated and unurbanized streams in Indiana that drain at least 15 square miles (38.8 square kilometres). The methods provide the design engineer with a means of estimating flood frequencies without having to analyze the records at individual...
Influence of recharge basins on the hydrology of Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Long Island, New York
G.E. Seaburn, D. A. Aronson
1974, Water Supply Paper 2031
An investigation of recharge basins on Long Island was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Nassau County Department of Public Works, Suffolk County Department of Environmental Control, and Suffolk County Water Authority. The major objectives of the study were...
Water demands for expanding energy development
G. H. Davis, Leonard A. Wood
1974, Circular 703
Water is used in producing energy for mining and reclamation of mined lands, onsite processing, transportation, refining, and conversion of fuels to other forms of energy. In the East, South, Midwest, and along the seacoasts, most water problems are related to pollution rather than to water supply. West of about...
Flood profiles and inundated areas along the Lower Nisqually River, Washington
J. E. Cummans
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-42
Nisqually River flood profiles, covering the reach from near the river mouth to river mile 6.4, were developed in a 2-year field study (1970-72) as part of a continuing program with the State of Washington Department of Ecology. The main channel of the reach will convey without overflow discharges as...
Water resources of the Lower Minnesota River Watershed, south-central Minnesota
H.W. Anderson, D.F. Farrell, W.L. Broussard
1974, Hydrologic Atlas 526
The lower Minnesota River watershed, an area of 2,005 square miles, is fairly flat west of the Minnesota River, but rises to a hilly ridge along the east side of the watershed. Most of the area is covered by ground moraine cut deeply by the Minnesota River and less deeply...
