Computation of peak discharge at culverts
Rolland William Carter
1957, Circular 376
Methods for computing peak flood flow through culverts on the basis of a field survey of highwater marks and culvert geometry are presented. These methods are derived from investigations of culvert flow as reported in the literature and on extensive laboratory studies of culvert flow. For convenience in computation, culvert...
Estimated use of water in the United States, 1955
Kenneth Allen MacKichan
1957, Circular 398
The estimated withdrawal use of water in the United States during 1955 was about 740,000 mgd (million gallons per day). Withdrawal use of water requires that it be removed from the ground or diverted from a stream or lake. In this report it is divided into five types: public supplies,...
Salt water and its relation to fresh ground water in Harris County, Texas
Allen G. Winslow, William Watson Doyel, L.A. Wood
1957, Water Supply Paper 1360-F
Harris County, in the West Gulf Coastal Plain in southeastern Texas, has one of the heaviest concentrations of ground-water withdrawal in the United States. Large quantities of water are pumped to meet the requirements of the rapidly growing population, for industry, and for rice irrigation. The water is pumped from...
The application, technique, and theory of Gish-Rooney instruments, methods, and interpretation in electrical resistivity measurements
H. Cecil Spicer
1957, Open-File Report 58-99
The foundations of electrical prospecting were laid by Fox (1830) and Barus (1882). The former discovered that electrical currents and potentials were developed by certain ore deposits in Cornwall, England. Fox made measurements of these potentials and determined the resistivities of the minerals and surrounding rocks also. The latter, invented...
A field method for the determination of calcium and magnesium in limestone and dolomite
Leonard Shapiro, Walter Wallace Brannock
1957, Open-File Report 57-99
The method is an adaptation of a procedure described by Betz and Noll1 in 1950. Calcium and magnesium are determined by visual titration using Versene (disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate) with Murexide (ammonium purpurate) as the indicator for calcium and Eriochrome Black T as the indicator for magnesium....
Geology of the southern Elkhorn Mountains, Jefferson and Broadwater Counties, Montana
M. R. Klepper, R. A. Weeks, E. T. Ruppel
1957, Professional Paper 292
The geology of an area of about 270 square miles in the southern Elkhorn Mountains, west of Townsend in west-central Montana, is described. The mountains in the southern part of the area comprise northward-trending alternating ridges and valleys underlain principally by folded sedimentary rocks. They merge northward into the higher...
