The effect of artesian-pressure decline on confined aquifer systems and its relation to land subsidence
J. H. Green
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-T
Ground water in the Southwestern United States is derived chiefly from unconsolidated to semiconsolidated alluvial deposits. Where these deposits contain confined water, they may be susceptible to compaction and related land- surface subsidence, if artesian pressures are reduced. Compaction of artesian-aquifer systems can be estimated from core tests if the...
Geology and ground-water resources of the Anchorage area, Alaska
Dagfin John Cederstrom, Frank W. Trainer, Roger Milton Waller
1964, Water Supply Paper 1773
The Anchorage area, at the head of Cook Inlet in south-central Alaska, occupies 150 square miles of a glaciated lowland and lies between two estuaries and the Chugach Mountains. Two military bases are in the area; Anchorage is the largest city in Alaska and the chief transportation center for this...
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...
Geology and ground water of the Luke area, Maricopa County, Arizona
Ronald S. Stulik, F. R. Twenter
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-P
Luke Air Force Base, in the Salt River Valley in central Arizona. is within an intermontane basin--the Phoenix basin--in the Basin and Range lowlands province. The Luke area, the subject of this study, extends beyond the limits of the base. Ground-water resources of the Luke area were studied to determine...
Hydrogeology of northwestern Nassau and northeastern Queens Counties, Long Island, New York
Wolfgang V. Swarzenski
1964, Water Supply Paper 1657
A detailed investigation of the geology and ground-water occurrence in northwestern Nassau and northeastern Queens Counties, N.Y., has been completed by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Nassau County Department of Public Works and the New York State Water Resources Commission. The area, about 63 square miles, includes...
Hydrologic studies of small watersheds, Honey Creek basin, Collin and Grayson Counties, Texas, 1953-1959
Clarence R. Gilbert, G.G. Commons, G. E. Koberg, F.W. Kennon
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-F
This report presents the results of an investigation into the effects of floodwaterretarding structures in the 39 square miles of the Honey Creek basin above the stream-gaging station near McKinney, during the period October 1952 to September 1959. The number of such structures in the study area was increased from...
Artesian water in the Malabar coastal plain of southern Kerala, India
George C. Taylor, P.K. Ghosh
1964, Water Supply Paper 1608-D
The present report is based on a geological and hydrological reconnaissance during 1954 of the Malabar Coastal Plain and adjacent island area of southern Kerala to evaluate the availability of ground water for coastal villages and municipalities and associated industries and the potentialities for future development. The work was done...
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...
