Water data for metropolitan areas: A summary of data from 222 areas in the United States
1968, Water Supply Paper 1871
Expansion of metropolitan areas poses persistent problems in management of the hydrologic environment. Adequate hydrologic data are prerequisite to proper planning and engineering design of urban environments. Some such data are available and are tabulated for each Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area in the United States. Information for each area consists...

Ground-water geology of Kordofan Province, Sudan
Harry G. Rodis, Abdulla Hassan, Lutfi Wahadan
1968, Water Supply Paper 1757-J
For much of Kordofan Province, surface-water supplies collected and stored in hafirs, fulas, and tebeldi trees are almost completely appropriated for present needs, and water from wells must serve as the base for future economic and cultural development. This report describes the results of a reconnaissance hydrogeologic investigation of the...

Electrical analog analysis of ground-water depletion in central Arizona
T. W. Anderson
1968, Water Supply Paper 1860
The Salt River Valley and the lower Santa Cruz River basin are the two largest agricultural areas in Arizona. The extensive use of ground water for irrigation has resulted in the need for a thorough appraisal of the present and future ground-water resources. The ground-water reservoir provides 80 percent (3.2...
Storage requirements for Arkansas streams
James Lee Patterson
1968, Water Supply Paper 1859-G
The supply of good-quality surface water in Arkansas is abundant. owing to seasonal and annual variability of streamflow, however, storage must be provided to insure dependable year-round supplies in most of the State. Storage requirements for draft rates that are as much as 60 percent of the mean annual flow...

Water-discharge determinations for the tidal reach of the Willamette River from Ross Island Bridge to Mile 10.3, Portland, Oregon
G.R. Dempster, Gale A. Lutz
1968, Water Supply Paper 1586-H
Water-discharge, velocity, and slope variations for a 3.7-mile-Iong tidal reach of the Willamette River at Portland, Oreg., were defined from discharge measurements and river stage data collected between July 1962 and January 1965. Observed water discharge during tide-affected flows, during floods, and during backwater from the Columbia River and recorded...
Water for the growing needs of Harrison County, Mississippi
Roy Newcome Jr., Donald E. Shattles, Carney P. Humphreys Jr.
1968, Water Supply Paper 1856
The potential for water-supply development in Harrison County is almost unlimited. During an average year, more than 350 billion gallons of water flow into the Gulf of Mexico from the streams of the county. With storage reservoirs these streams have a potential sustained supply of hundreds of millions of. gallons...
Use of water by riparian vegetation, Cottonwood Wash, Arizona
James E. Bowie, William Kam
1968, Water Supply Paper 1858
The change in water use as a result of the modification of riparian vegetation was measured in Cottonwood Wash, Mohave County, Ariz. A 4.1-mile length of the stream channel was selected and divided into a 2.6-mile upper reach and a 1.5-mile lower reach. Measurements of streamflow, ground-water levels, vegetation, and...

The area investigated is a segment of the Sevier River basin, Utah, comprising about 900 square miles and including a 19-mile reach of the Sevier River between Yuba Dam and Leamington Canyon. The larger valleys in the area are southern Juab, Round, and Scipio Valleys. The smaller valleys are Mills,...
Flow pattern and related chemical quality of ground water in the "500-foot" sand in the Memphis area, Tennessee
Edwin Allen Bell, Dale J. Nyman
1968, Water Supply Paper 1853
The '500-foot' sand is the major source of water supply for the Memphis area. Thick layers of impervious clay above and below the sand confine the water in the aquifer under artesian pressure and also protect the aquifer from contamination. Recharge from rainfall enters the '500-foot' sand in the outcrop,...
Water-mineral relations of Quaternary deposits in the Lower Platte River drainage area in eastern Nebraska
Ivan Barnes, Ray Bentall
1968, Water Supply Paper 1859-D
The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2), the degree of saturation with respect to calcite (IAP/K calcite), the pH, and the concentrations of selected constituents in solution were determined for water from 52 wells and the Platte River. Compared to the PCO2 in the atmosphere, the average PCO2 in the...
