Effect of reforestation on streamflow in central New York
William Joseph Schneider, Gordon Roundy Ayer
1961, Water Supply Paper 1602
Hydrologic data have been collected since 1932 in central New York State to determine the effect of reforestation on streamflow. Data are available for three small partly reforested areas and for one nonreforested control area. From 35 to 58 percent of the 3 areas were reforested, mostly with species of...
Aquifers in melt-water channels along the southwest flank of the Des Moines Lobe, Lyon County, Minnesota
Robert Schneider, Harry G. Rodis
1961, Water Supply Paper 1539-F
During the Gary and Mankato substages of Wisconsin glaciation the Des Moines lobe advanced southeastward through the broad lowland of the Minnesota River valley of southwestern Minnesota, and thence southward to central Iowa. Among the most prominent topographic features in Lyon County, Minn., are five southeastward-trending end moraines, two of which...
A Simple Method for Determining Specific Yield from Pumping Tests
L.E. Ramsahoye, Solomon Max Lang
1961, Water Supply Paper 1536-C
A simpler solution which greatly reduces the time necessary to compute the specific yield by the pumping-test method of Remson and Lang (1955) is presented. The method consists of computing the volume of dewatered material in the cone of depression and comparing it with the total volume of discharged water....
Availability of ground water in the Gallup area, New Mexico
Samuel Wilson West
1961, Circular 443
A thick succession of sedimentary rocks (about 6,000 feet) underlies the town of Gallup and crops out nearby. Although all the sedimentary rocks are capable of yielding some water, only a few units of sandstone and limestone yield water in sufficient quantity and of acceptable quality to be considered as...
Ground Water at Grant Village Site, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming
Ellis D. Gordon, Richard A. McCullough, Edwin P. Weeks
1961, Water Supply Paper 1475-F
On behalf of the National Park Service, the U.S. Geological Survey during the summer of 1959 made a study of ground-water conditions in the area of the Grant Village site, along the shore of the West Thumb of Yellowstone Lake, 1 to 2 miles south of the present facilities at...
Availability of ground water in Lyon County, Minnesota
Harry G. Rodis
1961, Circular 444
Lyon County is in southwestern Minnesota, about 150 miles southwest of Minneapolis and St. Paul The basement rocks in the area consist of granite and quartzite of Precambrian age. These materials are in turn overlain by shale and sandstone of Cretaceous age, glacial drift of Pleistocene age, and alluvium of...
Water resources of the Raft River basin, Idaho-Utah
Raymond L. Nace
1961, Water Supply Paper 1587
Much arable land in the Raft River basin of Idaho lacks water for irrigation, and the potentially irrigable acreage far exceeds the amount that could be irrigated with the estimated total supply of water. Therefore, the amount of uncommitted water that could be intercepted and used within the basin is...
Resistance coefficients and velocity distribution smooth rectangular channel
Hubert J. Tracy, C.M. Lester
1961, Water Supply Paper 1592-A
Measurements were made in a smooth rectangular channel to establish the effect of the side walls of the channel on velocity distribution and resistance to flow. The velocity distribution in the central region of a section normal to the channel followed the log arithmetic law. In the vicinity of each...
