Effects of agricultural conservation practices on the hydrology of Corey Creek basin, Pennsylvania, 1954-60
Benjamin L. Jones
1966, Water Supply Paper 1532-C
Analyses of data collected from two small basins in northern Pennsylvania during the period May 1954 to September 1960 indicated that changes in land use and land treatment have affected suspended- sediment discharge from the basins. Extensive land use and land-treatment changes have taken place in the 12.2-square-mile Corey Creek...

Ground-water development in the high plains of Colorado, with a section on chemical quality of the ground water
Arnold J. Boettcher, Robert Brennan
1966, Water Supply Paper 1819-I
The High Plains of Colorado includes all or part of 11 counties and has an area of about 9,500 square miles. The land surface slopes eastward and in most areas is gently rolling owing to erosion by ephemeral streams. The Ogallala Formation, of Pliocene age, is the principal aquifer. In...
