Suspended sediment yield of New Jersey coastal plain streams draining into the Delaware estuary
Lawrence J. Mansue
1972, Open-File Report 73-176
An investigation was begun in 1965 by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District to meet the Corps’ need for information on sediment transport in the Delaware River basin in relation to the maintenance of navigable channels in the river 's estuarine...

Nutrient survey of surface waters in southern Florida during a wet and a dry season, September 1970 and March 1971
Herbert J. Freiberger
1972, Open-File Report 72-124
A mass nutrient survey of southern Florida surface waters was made in September 1970, during a period of generally high water, and again in March 1971, during a period of low water. Water samples were analyzed by automated chemical techniques for total ortho plus acid-hydrolyzable phosphorus (P-P04), ammonia nitrogen...
Electrical-analog analysis of the hydrologic system, Tucson basin, southeastern Arizona
T. W. Anderson
1972, Water Supply Paper 1939-C
The water supply for the Tucson basin, Arizona, is derived entirely from ground water. The average annual pumpage for 1962-64 was about 165,000 acre-feet and was greater than the natural rate of ground-water recharge. Water-level declines of as much as 70 feet occurred from spring 1940 to spring 1965 as...
Fluvial sediment in Salem Fork watershed, West Virginia
R.F. Flint
1972, Water Supply Paper 1798-K
Suspended sediment discharged from the 8.32-square-mile Salem Fork study area in Harrison County, W. Va., averaged 3,500 tons per year during the first 4-year period of investigation and 1,770 tons per year during the second 4-year period. The difference as attributed to increased flow control, effected by the completion of...
Fluvial sediment in Hocking River subwatershed 1 (North Branch Hunters Run), Ohio
R.F. Flint
1972, Water Supply Paper 1798-I
From May 1956 to May 1962, Hocking River subwatershed 1 of Upper Hocking River Pilot Watershed had an average annual sediment yield from its contributing area of 0.94 square mile of 1,195 tons per square mile. Annual suspended-sediment yield at the outlet, expressed in tons per acre-foot of outflow, decreased...
Flood of June 1972: Cohocton River at Campbell, New York
L.A. Wagner, P.H. Hamecher
1972, Open-File Report 72-433
In June 1972, tropical storm Agnes caused sever flooding in Pennsylvania and southern New York. The flood, on many major streams were the highest known since the river valleys were settled. Maximum discharges were as much as twice the discharge of a 50-year flood. In southern New York, large areas...

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. THE ALLUVIAL DEPOSITS (SAND AND GRAVEL) OF THE VALLEY PLAIN CONTAIN THE MOST PRODUCTIVE AQUIFERS IN THE AREA AND ARE CONSIDERED TO BE THE ONLY...
Falling-stream turbidimeter as a means of measuring sediment concentrations in streams
Harold P. Guy, Richard C. Olson
1972, Report
An optical (photocell) sensing device was used to measure the relative transparency characteristics of sediment suspensions with a view toward improving our ability to measure the temporal variations of suspended-sediment concentration moving in streams. The instrument used was a commercial "falling stream" turbidimeter that measured the relative transparency of a...
