Drainage area data for Alabama streams
J.S. Stallings, L.B. Peirce
1957, Open-File Report 57-106
The drainage area of a river basin is an important parameter in many engineering equations used for hydrologic design. It is not a parameter, however, that always requires precise measurement. Factors in the hydrologic cycle such as rainfall, runoff, transpiration, and infiltration cannot be measured nearly as closely as drainage...
Continued utilization of ground-water storage basins
H. E. Thomas
1957, Open-File Report 57-109
Doubtless most of you are more familiar with surface reservoirs, their capabilities and limitations, than you are with ground-water reservoirs. I believe that this is true of people in general, even the experts. And because of our inadequate knowledge of ground-water reservoirs, our use of them creates problems that are...
Ground water and permafrost at Bethel, Alaska
Roger M. Waller
1957, Open-File Report 57-116
This report is a result of a study of the results of a test-drilling program conducted by the Alaska Department of Health to determine whether a ground-water supply is available in the village of Bethel, Alaska. The U. S. Geological Survey was asked to assist in evaluating the available information...
Memorandum on the hydrology of the Johnson Creek area, Dover-Madbury, New Hampshire
Edward Bradley
1957, Open-File Report 57-14
Ground-water conditions in the Johnson Creek area (Dover-Madbury, N.H.) are described on pages 23-26 in "Preliminary report on the ground-water resources of part of the seacoast region of New Hampshire," by Edward Bradley, U.S. Geological Survey open-file report, 1955. A copy of those pages is attached as an appendix to...
The Geological Survey sediment program in California
E. Brown
1957, Open-File Report 57-16
The activities of the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey in the State of California arise from the responsibility place on this agency by Congress for the determination and appraisal of the nation's water resources. The stream-sediment programs of the division are designed to carry out this broad...
Occurrence of ground water near Ana Springs, Summer Lake Basin, Lake County, Oregon
S. G. Brown
1957, Open-File Report 57-17
Ana Springs are near the north end of Summer Lake Basin, a closed fault-block basin in Lake County Oregon. The water of the springs rises by artesian pressure from lava-rock aquifers through about 150 feet of overlying thinly bedded lake deposits to discharge at the bottom of an impounding reservoir,...
Construction and use of special drawdown scales for use in prediction of water-level changes throughout heavily pumped areas
C.S. Conover, H.O. Reeder
1957, Open-File Report 57-24
Problem and Proposed Method of Solution Frequently the Theis nonequilibrium formula is use din the quantitative analyses that are part of many-ground-water investigations. The computations associated therewith may become quite involved and tedious, especially when dealing with predictions of the decline of water levels throughout large areas in which there are...
