Geology and ground-water conditions in the Wilmington-Reading area, Massachusetts
John Augustus Baker, H.G. Healy, O. M. Hackett
1964, Water Supply Paper 1694
The Wilmington-Reading area, as defined for this report, contains the headwaters of the Ipswich River in northeastern Massachusetts. Since World War II the growth of communities in this area and the change in character of some of them from rural to suburban have created new water problems and intensified old...

Field measurement of alkalinity and pH
Ivan Barnes
1964, Water Supply Paper 1535-H
The behavior of electrometric pH equipment under field conditions departs from the behavior predicted from Nernst's law. The response is a linear function of pH, and hence measured pH values may be corrected to true pH if the instrument is calibrated with two reference solutions for each measurement. Alkalinity titrations...

Natural sources of salinity in the Brazos River, Texas with particular reference to the Croton and salt Croton Creek basins
R. C. Baker, Leon S. Hughes, I. D. Yost
1964, Water Supply Paper 1669-CC
The average daily load of the Brazos River at Possum Kingdom Reservoir is about 2,800 tons of dissolved solids, of which 1,000 tons is chloride. More than 85 percent of the chloride load is contributed by the Salt Fork Brazos River, and more than 50 percent of the chloride load...

Summary of floods in the United States during 1958
E. L. Hendricks
1964, Water Supply Paper 1660-B
This report describes the most outstanding floods that occurred in the United States during 1958.A series of storms from January 23 to February 16 brought large amounts of precipitation to northern California and produced damaging floods, particularly in the Lower Sacramento Valley where losses totaled about \$12 million.Major floods, notable...

Evaluation of hydrogeology and hydrogeochemistry of Truckee Meadows area, Washoe County, Nevada
Philip M. Cohen, Omar J. Loeltz
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-S
Practically all the ground water of economic importance in the Truckee Meadows area, an alluviated intermontane basin in western Nevada is in the valley fill, which consists of unconsolidated and partially consolidated sedimentary deposits. The Mesozoic and Cenozoic consolidated rocks of the mountains bordering the valley contain some water in...
Hydrogeologic reconnaissance of Poro Point and vicinity, Luzon Island, Philippines
George Frank Worts
1964, Water Supply Paper 1608-E
In 1961 a reconnaissance of the geology and ground-water hydrology of Poro Point, on the west coast of Luzon Island, Philippines, was made on behalf of the U.S. Department of the Navy. Poro Point, which marks the northern end of Lingayen Gulf, is about half a mile wide and projects...
Exploratory laboratory study of lateral turbulent diffusion at the surface of an alluvial channel
William W. Sayre, A.R. Chamberlain
1964, Circular 484
In natural streams turbulent diffusion is one of the principal mechanisms by which liquid and suspended-particulate contaminants are dispersed in the flow. A knowledge of turbulence characteristics is therefore essential in predicting the dispersal rates of contaminants in streams. In this study the theory of diffusion by continuous movements for...
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...

Lithologic variations in slope development theory
Adrian E. Scheidegger
1964, Circular 485
This paper presents a comprehensive review and amplification of the writer's earlier slope development theory. In particular, the influence of lithology on evolving slope profiles is investigated and calculations are made for various conditions, such as presence of caprock, soft bottom, and hard and soft intermediate layers....
