Effects of land use and retention practices on sediment yields in the Stony Brook basin, New Jersey
Lawrence J. Mansue, Peter W. Anderson
1974, Water Supply Paper 1798-L
The average annual rate of suspended-sediment discharge of the Stony Brook at Princeton, N.J. (44.5 square miles) is about 8,800 tons, or 200 tons per square mile. Annual yields within the basin, which is in the Piedmont Lowlands section of the Piedmont physiographic province in west-central New Jersey, range from...

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...
Base and thickness of the Post-Eocene continental deposits in the Sacramento Valley, California
R. W. Page
1974, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-45
The Sacramento Valley, which forms most of the northern one-third of the Central Valley, is a broad structural trough. The study area comprises the valley floor and some of the foothills of the Sierra Nevada and the Coast Ranges, a total area of about 6,000 square miles.Beneath most places in...

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...
