Flood of June 1972: Genesee River at Belmont, New York
L.A. Wagner, P.H. Hamecher
1972, Open-File Report 72-436
In June 1972, tropical storm Agnes caused sever flooding in Pennsylvania and southern New York. The flood, on many major streams were the highest known since the river valleys were settled. Maximum discharges were as much as twice the discharge of a 50-year flood. In southern New York, large areas...
Catalog of earthquakes along the San Andreas fault system in central California for the year 1971
W.H.K. Lee, K.L. Meagher, R.E. Bennett, E.E. Matamoros
1972, Open-File Report 72-225
A network of seismograph stations was established by the National Center for Earthquake Research (NCER) to study in detail the earthquakes along the San Andreas fault system in central California (Eaton, Lee, and Pakiser, 1970). This report, in the form of a catalog, summarizes the results of routine earthquake locations...
A test of self-stationarity
Robert D. Regan
1972, Open-File Report 72-311
A method for testing the stationarity of a single time series has been devised. The method utilizes two pre-existing tests of stationarity. A computer program that permits routine testing of any time series has been developed, and the test has ben successfully applied to several known series. In certain cases...
Effects of urbanization on timing of flood peaks on Town Creek in Jackson, Mississippi
Billie E. Wasson
1972, Open-File Report 72-445
During the floods of March and April 1969 the flood crest on Town Creek occurred at Gallatin Street before crests occurred at some upstream points. Heavy urbanization in the downstream part of the basin probably caused the abnormal sequence of flood peaks in Town Creek. Flood flow at Gallatin Street is spread...
Tectonic map of the Arabian Peninsula
Glen F. Brown
1972, Open-File Report 72-52
This tectonic map of the Arabian peninsula, prepared for the Audi Arabian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resource, is the first of a series of peninsular maps that attempt to show regional features. Much recent information resulting from detailed geologic mapping notably within the Arabian craton, from geophysical surveys, both...
Floods in Starkweather Creek basin, Madison, Wisconsin
Carl L. Lawrence, Barry K. Holmstrom
1972, Open-File Report 72-221
The city of Madison is establishing standards for flood-plain zoning and land-use planning. The evaluation of flood potential is a necessary factor to be considered before such standards are established and put into effect. Purpose and scope. The purposes of this report are to determine the magnitude and water surface...
Falling-stream turbidimeter as a means of measuring sediment concentrations in streams
Harold P. Guy, Richard C. Olson
1972, Report
An optical (photocell) sensing device was used to measure the relative transparency characteristics of sediment suspensions with a view toward improving our ability to measure the temporal variations of suspended-sediment concentration moving in streams. The instrument used was a commercial "falling stream" turbidimeter that measured the relative transparency of a...
Annual water-resources review, White Sands Missile Range: 1971
R. R. Cruz
1972, Report
This report presents water-resource information that was collected at White Sands Missile Range during 1971 and early 1972 by personnel of the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division. Data on ground-water pumpage and resulting water-level fluctuation, chemical quality, percipitation, and surface-water runoff are summarized in the report. The data were...
