Water in urban planning, Salt Creek Basin, Illinois water management as related to alternative land-use practices
Andrew Maute Spieker
1970, Water Supply Paper 2002
Water management can be an integral part of urban comprehensive planning in a large metropolitan area. Water both imposes constraints on land use and offers opportunities for coordinated land and water management. Salt Creek basin in Cook and Du Page Counties of the Chicago metropolitan area is typical of rapidly...

The four most damaging floods during the year were in December in the Far Western States, in March along the Ohio River, in September in central and northern Florida and southern Georgia, and in June in northwestern...
Detergents and associated contaminants in ground water at three public-supply well fields in southwestern Suffolk County, Long Island, New York
Nathaniel M. Perlmutter, A.A. Guerrera
1970, Water Supply Paper 2001-B
Sampling of groups of small-diameter shallow observation wells and nearby public-supply wells screened in the upper glacial aquifer at three well fields showed that detergents (MBAS) were distributed through almost the entire saturated thickness of the aquifer. Concentrations of MBAS in water from all the wells sampled ranged from less...
Hydrographic and sedimentation survey of Kajakai Reservoir, Afghanistan
Don C. Perkins, James K. Culbertson
1970, Water Supply Paper 1608-M
A hydrographic and sedimentation survey of Band-e Kajakai (Kajakai Reservoir) on the Darya-ye Hirmand (Helmand River) was carried out during the period September through December 1968. Underwater mapping techniques were used to determine the reservoir capacity as of 1968. Sediment range lines were established and monumented to facilitate future sedimentation...
A glossary of Karst terminology
Watson Hiner Monroe
1970, Water Supply Paper 1899-K
This glossary includes most terms used in describing karst geomorphologic features and processes. The terms are primarily those used in the literature of English-speaking countries, but a few of the more common terms in French, German, and Spanish are included, with references to the corresponding English terms where they are...

An appraisal of ground water for irrigation in the Wadena area, central Minnesota
F.G. Lindholm
1970, Water Supply Paper 1983
The Wadena area is part of a large sandy plain in central Minnesota whose soils have low water-holding capacity. Drought conditions which adversely affect plant growth frequently occur in the summer when moisture is most needed. To reduce the risk of crop failure in the area supplemental irrigation is on...
Determination of the manning coefficient from measured bed roughness in natural channels
John Thomas Limerinos
1970, Water Supply Paper 1898-B
This report presents the results of a study to test the hypothesis that basic values of the Manning roughness coefficient of stream channels may be related to (1) some characteristic size of the streambed particles and to (2) the distribution of particle size. These two elements involving particle size can...
