Evolution of methods for evaluating the occurrence of floods
M. A. Benson
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-A
A brief summary is given of the history of methods of expressing flood potentialities, proceeding from simple flood formulas to statistical methods of flood-frequency analysis on a regional basis. Current techniques are described and evaluated. Long-term flood records in the United States show no justification for the adoption of a...
Ground water in the Wupatki and Sunset Crater National Monuments, Coconino County, Arizona
Oliver J. Cosner
1962, Water Supply Paper 1475-J
The Wupatki and Sunset Crater National Monuments are 15 and 30 miles, respectively, northeast of Flagstaff on the San Francisco Plateau. They are in the eastern part of the San Francisco volcanic field and on the southwest flank of the Black Mesa basin. The Supai formation, Coconino sandstone, Kaibab limestone,...
Effect of reservoir storage on peak flow
William D. Mitchell
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-C
For observation of small-basin flood peaks, numerous crest-stage gages now are operated at culverts in roadway embankments. To the extent that they obstruct the natural flood plains of the streams, these embankments serve to create detention reservoirs, and thus to reduce the magnitude of observed peak flows. Hence, it is...

Study of natural glasses through their behavior as membrane electrodes, Part 2
Alfred Hemingway Truesdell
1962, Open-File Report 62-136
The exchange constants and regular solution constants for a number of exchange reactions involving analyzed natural and simulated natural glasses have been determined. The experimental method used provides quick and simple determination of these constants. The calculation of the internal energy differences of model ion exchange systems involving alkali and...
Spectrophotometric catalytic determination of small amounts of rhenium in mineralized rocks and molybdenite
Frederick Otto Simon
1962, Open-File Report 62-126
Rhenium is determined by spectrophotometry of the tellurium sol formed by the reduction of tellurate by stannous chloride under the catalytic influence of rhenium. A detailed investigation of the conditions for high sensitivity and stability at lowest concentration levels of rhenium is presented as well as the behavior of twenty-six...
Description, composition, and tenor of unconsolidated sediments in monazite-bearing tributaries to the Broad River in the western Piedmont of South Carolina and North Carolina
P. K. Theobald Jr.
1962, Open-File Report 62-131
The accompanying 10 tables were prepared during 1953-54 to assist in the appraisal of fluviatile monazite placers in the basin of the Broad River, South Carolina and North Carolina. Principal results have been summarized (Overstreet, Theobald, and Whitlow, 19)9, p. 709- 714). Details of the exploratory drilling of four monazite...
