Physical and chemical characteristics of Lake Oahe, 1968-69
James H. Selgeby, William E. Jones
1974, Technical Paper 72
The physical and chemical characteristics presented provide a description of Lake Oahe and establish bases for certain characteristics which may alter as the reservoir ages. Water temperatures were strongly influenced by wind-driven currents and water depth. The duration of thermal stratification varied from about 3 wk in the upstream portion...

Analog model study of the ground-water basin of the Upper Coachella Valley, California
Stephen J. Tyley
1974, Water Supply Paper 2027
An analog model of the ground-water basin of the upper Coachella Valley was constructed to determine the effects of imported water on ground-water levels. The model was considered verified when the ground-water levels generated by the model approximated the historical change in water levels of the ground-water basin caused by...
Ground water in the Corvallis-Albany area, central Willamette Valley, Oregon
Frank J. Frank
1974, Water Supply Paper 2032
The Corvallis-Albany area is part of the alluvial plain that lies between the Cascade and Coast Ranges in the central Willamette Valley in northwestern Oregon. As used in this report, the Corvallis-Albany area consists of approximately 210 square miles and includes a part of the lower foothills of the Coast...
Appraisal of operating efficiency of recharge basins on Long Island, New York, in 1969
D. A. Aronson, G.E. Seaburn
1974, Water Supply Paper 2001-D
Recharge basins on Long Island are unlined pits of various shapes and sizes excavated in surficial deposits of mainly glacial origin. Of the 2,124 recharge basins on Long Island in 1969, approximately 9 percent (194) contain water 5 or more days after a 1-inch rainfall. Basins on Long Island contain...

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...
Floods of June 1965 in Arkansas River basin, Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexico
R.J. Snipes
1974, Water Supply Paper 1850-D
Maximum discharges during the floods of June 1965 in the Arkansas River basin in Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexico were greater than those previously known at 49 of the 137 locations where flood information was obtained. Property damage exceeded $60 million, and 16 lives were lost. At many sites, peak...

Geologic and hydrologic control of chloride contamination in aquifers at Brunswick, Glynn County, Georgia
Dean O. Gregg, Everett Alfred Zimmerman
1974, Water Supply Paper 2029-D
Water from a brackish-water zone (1,050-1,350 ft) has concentrations as high as 2,150 milligrams per liter chloride, and concentrations are suspected to be higher than 3,000 milligrams per liter chloride. This brackish water has been identified as the source of the water that contaminates the upper and lower fresh-water-bearing zones...
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...

Sediment transport by streams draining into the Delaware Estuary
Lawrence J. Mansue, Allen B. Commings
1974, Water Supply Paper 1532-H
The quantity of sediment transported by streams draining into the Delaware estuary from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware varies areally according to geology, physiography, and land use. Of the estimated total sediment load of 1.6 million tons entering the Delaware estuary annually, about 48 percent is contributed by the Delaware...
