Applications of the generalized information processing system (GIPSY)
D.W. Moody, Olaf Kays
1972, Open-File Report 72-260
The Generalized Information Processing System (GIPSY) stores and retrieves variable-field, variable-length records consisting of numeric data, textual data, or codes. A particularly noteworthy feature of GIPSY is its ability to search records for words, word stems, prefixes, and suffixes as well as for numeric values. Moreover, retrieved records may be...

Artificial recharge in the upper Santa Ana Valley, southern California
Joe A. Moreland
1972, Open-File Report 72-261
Artificial recharge has long been an integral part of water-supply management in the upper Santa Ana Valley. About 7,500 acres of unlined channels and 2,590 acres in 60 off-channel recharge facilities are available for water spreading.To estimate potential infiltration rates for the recharge facilities, 63 single-ring infiltrometer tests were conducted...

Sedimentation of Williams Reservoir, Santa Clara County, California
John R. Ritter, William M. Brown III
1972, Open-File Report 72-315
Fifty-two acre-feet of sediment was ·deposited in Williams Reservoir between 1913 and 1971. From calculations of the sediment yields in other nearby drainage basins in Santa Clara County, it was determined that 24 to 38 acre-feet of sediment would have been transported to Williams Reservoir between 1961 and 1971 under...
Ground-water resources and geology of Cook County, Georgia
Charles W. Sever
1972, Open-File Report 72-345
Aquifer-performance tests and aquifer studies indicate that the limestone beneath the city of Adel and probably most of Cook County contains potable water to a depth of only about 400 to 500 feet and that "deep" wells that tap these limestones obtain most of their water from a few thin,...
Regional draft-storage relationships for central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan
L.E. Stoimenoff
1972, Open-File Report 72-362
Regional draft-storage relationships for central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan are presented in this report. Storage requirements for the 5- and 20-year recurrence intervals were determined using the frequency-mass curve method and daily discharge records from 15 gaging stations. The relationships will be useful in making preliminary estimates of...
