Hydrology of aquifer systems in the Memphis area, Tennessee
James H. Criner, P-C. P. Sun, Dale J. Nyman
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-O
The Memphis area as described in .this report comprises about 1,300 square miles of the Mississippi embayment part of the Gulf Coastal Plain. The area is underlain by as much as 3,000 feet of sediments ranging in age from Cretaceous through Quaternary. In 1960, 150 mgd (million gallons per day)...
Water resources of the Green Bay area, Wisconsin
Doyle Blewer Knowles, F. C. Dreher, George Walter Whetstone
1964, Water Supply Paper 1499-G
The Green Bay area comprises an area of about 525 square miles in eastern Wisconsin at the south end of Green Bay. It includes the western three-fourths of Brown County and the eastern one-ninth of Outagamie County. In 1960, the population of the area was estimated at 124,000. The most prominent...
Ground-water conditions in the Green Bay area, Wisconsin, 1950-60
Doyle B. Knowles
1964, Water Supply Paper 1669-J
The Green Bay area, which includes parts of Brown, Outagamie, and Shawano Counties, has an area of about 525 square miles in eastern Wisconsin at the south end of Green Bay. In 1960, it had a population estimated at 124,000; Green Bay, the largest city in the area, had a...
Ground-water resources of north-central Connecticut
Robert Vittum Cushman
1964, Water Supply Paper 1752
The term 'north-central Connecticut' in this report refers to an area of about 640 square miles within the central lowland of the Connecticut River basin north of Middletown. The area is mostly a broad valley floor underlain by unconsolidated deposits of Pleistocene and Recent age which mantle an erosional surface...
Water resources of the Hartford-New Britain area, Connecticut
Robert Vittum Cushman, D. Tanski, M. P. Thomas
1964, Water Supply Paper 1499-H
The Hartford-New Britain area includes the metropolitan areas of Hartford and New Britain and parts of several adjoining towns. Water used in the area is withdrawn from the principal streams and aquifers at an average rate of 463.5 mgd (million gallons per day). Sufficient water is available from these sources...
Discharge characteristics of embankment-shaped weirs
Carl E. Kindsvater
1964, Water Supply Paper 1617-A
An embankment-shaped weir is an embankment overtopped by flood waters. Among the engineering problems frequently resulting from. this occurrence is the need to compute the peak discharge from postflood yield observations. The research described in this. report was concerned with the theoretical and experimental bases for the computation procedure. The...
The effect of artesian-pressure decline on confined aquifer systems and its relation to land subsidence
J. H. Green
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-T
Ground water in the Southwestern United States is derived chiefly from unconsolidated to semiconsolidated alluvial deposits. Where these deposits contain confined water, they may be susceptible to compaction and related land- surface subsidence, if artesian pressures are reduced. Compaction of artesian-aquifer systems can be estimated from core tests if the...
Chemical quality of surface waters and sedimentation in the Saline River basin, Kansas
Paul Robert Jordan, B.F. Jones, Lester R. Petri
1964, Water Supply Paper 1651
This report gives the results of an investigation of the sediment and dissolved minerals that are transported by the Saline River and its tributaries. The Saline River basin is in western and central Kansas; it is long and narrow and covers 3,420 square miles of rolling plains, which is broken...
Geology and ground-water conditions of the Redwood Falls area, Redwood County, Minnesota
George R. Schiner, Robert Schneider
1964, Water Supply Paper 1669-R
The Redwood Falls area includes about 80 square miles in southwestern Minnesota and is about 100 miles west of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Its surface is a gently undulating glacial-drift plain, interrupted in part by the large Minnesota River valley and the tributary Redwood River valley. The drift plain was...
Geology and ground-water resources of Washington, D.C., and vicinity, with a section on chemical quality of the water
Paul McKelvey Johnston, D. E. Weaver, Leonard Siu
1964, Water Supply Paper 1776
The area of this report includes 436 square miles centered about the District of Columbia. The area contains parts of two distinctly different physiographic provinces-the Piedmont and the Coastal Plain. The Fall Line, which separates the Piedmont province on the west from the Coastal Plain Province on the east, bisects...
Ground-water provinces of southern Rhodesia
Philip Eldon Dennis, L.L. Hindson
1964, Water Supply Paper 1757-D
Ground-water development, utilization, and occurrence in nine ground-water provinces of Southern Rhodesia are summarized in this report. Water obtained from drilled wells for domestic and stock use has played an important part in the social and economic development of Southern Rhodesia from the beginnings of European settlement to the present....
Water resources of the Flint area, Michigan
Sulo Werner Wiitala, K.E. Vanlier, Robert A. Krieger
1964, Water Supply Paper 1499-E
This report describes the water resources of Genesee County, Mich., whose principal city is Flint. The sources of water available to the county are the Flint and Shiawassee Rivers and their tributaries, inland lakes, ground water, and Lake Huron. The withdrawal use of water in the county in 1958 amounted...
Availability of ground water in parts of the Acoma and Laguna Indian Reservations, New Mexico
George A. Dinwiddie, Ward Sundt Motts
1964, Water Supply Paper 1576-E
The need for additional water has increased in recent years on the Acoma and Laguna Indian Reservations in west-central New Mexico because the population and per capita use of water have increased; the tribes also desire water for light industry, for more modern schools, and to increase their irrigation program....
