Techniques for assessing water resource potentials in the developing countries: with emphasis on streamflow, erosion and sediment transport, water movement in unsaturated soils, ground water, and remote sensing in hydrologic applications
George C. Taylor Jr.
1971, Open-File Report 72-375
Hydrologic instrumentation and methodology for assessing water-resource potentials have originated largely in the developed countries of the temperature zone. The developing countries lie largely in the tropic zone, which contains the full gamut of the earth's climatic environments, including most of those of the temperate zone. For this reason, most...

Low-flow study of streams in Albany County, New York
F. Luman Robison
1971, Open-File Report 72-318
In 1967, the city of Albany and the U.S. Geological Survey began an enlarged cooperative program to evaluate the surface-water resources of the county. This interim report presents an analysis of the low-flow data that the program has obtained to 1970.As part of this program, personnel of the Geological Survey...
A preliminary evaluation of hydrologic conditions of the Lakeland Ridge area of Polk County, Florida
Alton F. Robertson
1971, Open-File Report 71-241
The Lakeland ridge are covers about 300 square miles in north-west Polk County. The rapid growth of this area has resulted in an increase in ground-water withdrawals such that in 1968 about 67.5 million gallons per day was pumped to satisfy the demands of municipal, irrigation and industrial users. Declines...
Resistivity sections, upper Arkansas River basin, Colorado
Adel A. R. Zohdy, Lloyd A. Hershey, Philip A. Emery, William D. Stanley
1971, Open-File Report 71-337
A reconnaissance investigation of ground-water resources in the upper Arkansas River basin from Pueblo to Leadville is being made by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Southeastern Colorado Water Conservancy District, and the Colorado Division of Water Resources, Colorado State Engineer. As part of the investigation, surface geophysical...

A summary of methods for the collection and analysis of basic hydrologic data for arid regions
S. E. Rantz, T.E. Eakin
1971, Open-File Report 72-305
This report summarizes and discusses current methods of collecting and analyzing the data required for a study of the basic hydrology of arid regions. The fundamental principles behind these methods are no different than those that apply to studies of humid regions, but in arid regions the infrequent occurrence of...
Aids in designing laboratory flumes
Garnett P. Williams
1971, Open-File Report 71-327
The upsurge of interest in our environment has caused research and instruction in the flow of water along open channels to become increasingly popular in universities and institutes. This, in turn, has brought a greater demand for properly-designed laboratory flumes. Whatever the reason for your interest, designing and...
Sediment loads in canals 18, 23, and 24 in southeastern Florida
William A. J. Pitt Jr.
1971, Open-File Report 72-299
Suspended-sediment concentrations and suspended-sediment discharges were determined in selected canals in St. Lucie, Martin, and Palm Beach Counties, in southeastern Florida. Sediment rating curves were developed to relate water discharge to sediment concentration at the three sites sampled. An evaluation of the concentration and sediment loads shows that larger amounts...
Ground-water reconnaissance of selected sites in Rocky Mountain National Park and Shadow Mountain National Recreation area, Colorado
F.A. Welder
1971, Open-File Report 71-320
An evaluation of the ground-water supply potential at 30 sites within the Rocky Mountain National Park and Shadow Mountain National Recreation Area was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1967 and 1968. The work consisted of a geohydrologic reconnaissance, well inventory, and test drilling. The study sites are underlain...
Index of surface-water records to September 30, 1970: Part 9. - Colorado River basin

1971, Circular 659
This report lists the streamflow and reservoir stations in the Colorado River basin for which records have been or are to be published in reports of the Geological Survey for periods through September 30, 1970. It supersedes Geological Survey Circular 579. It was updated by personnel of the Data Reports...

Relation of drainage problems to high ground-water levels, Coconut Grove area, Oahu, Hawaii
L.A. Swain, C.J. Huxel Jr.
1971, Open-File Report 72-365
Purpose and Scope In 1969, hydrologic data-collection sites were established in and around the Coconut Grove area for the purpose of measuring directly the relationship between rainfall, runoff, ground-water levels, the level of water in Kawainui Swamp and the canals, and tidal fluctuations. The primary objective was to identify the causes...

1971, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 316
Increasing interest in potentially harmful substances utilized and discarded by man has raised question about the normal distribution of chemical elements in the natural environment. This interest prompted a baseline study of a pristine region off the northern coast of Alaska. Information was gathered on currents, water clarity, nutrients, temperature...
