Limnological investigation of six lakes in southeast Alaska
George A. McCoy, William W. Wiggins, Artwin E. Schmidt
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-122
Limnological data were collected from six lakes in southeast Alaska in 1974. The data include concentrations of major inorganic constituents, nutrients, selected trace metals, total organic carbon, and chlorophyll. Vertical profiles of specific conductance, temperature, dissolved-oxygen saturation, and pH were drawn. With the exception of Redoubt Lake, all of the...
Flood-frequency analysis for small natural streams in Georgia
Harold G. Golden, McGlone Price
1976, Open-File Report 76-511
Flood information from 104 project basins (0.1 to 20 square miles) and data available from 170 larger basins (20 to 1,500 square miles) are analyzed to provide planners and designers with relations for estimating the magnitude and frequency of flood-peak discharges on small natural streams in Georgia. More than 90...

Water-quality data for the Eagle River valley in the vicinity of Eagle and Vail, West-central Colorado
T.F. Giles, Robert E. Brogden
1976, Open-File Report 76-812
Water-quality data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in the Eagle River valley, Colo., during 1976. Forty-nine ground-water samples from wells and springs were collected and analyzed during the study. Eight surface-water samples were analyzed. All the water samples were analyzed for major cations and anions, selenium, and arsenic....
Availability of ground water near Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana

1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-46
A study of the hydraulic characteristics of the unconsolidated glacial deposits near the city of Carmel in central Indiana shows that 21.3 million gallons per day (933 litres per second) of additional water could be withdrawn from the aquifer for an indefinite period of time . This pumpage is approximately...
Artificial recharge through a well in fissured carbonate rock, west St. Paul, Minnesota

1976, Water Supply Paper 2004
The Prairie du Chien Group was injected with 2,754,000 gallons (368,200 cubic feet), or 10,430 cubic metres, of municipally treated water at about 100 gallons per minute (13.4 cubic feet per minute), or 6.3 litres per second, for 20 days. The injection-pipe system was designed to utilize pipe friction rather...
Estimating runoff volumes and flood hydrographs in the Colorado River Basin, southern Utah
James H. Eychaner
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-102
Hydrographs of 364 floods from 18 continuous-record gaging sites in the Colorado River basin in southern Utah were used to define a single relation of flood volume to peak discharge; the standard error of estimate of that relation . is 82 percent. Using the same data, a mean dimensionless hydrograph...
Comprehensive monitoring of meteorology, hydraulics, and thermal regime of the San Diego Aqueduct, California

Water quality and bathymetry of Sand Lake, Anchorage, Alaska
Donald E. Donaldson
1976, Open-File Report 76-254
Sand Lake, a dimictic lowland lake in Anchorage, Alaska, has recently become as urban lake. Analyses indicate that the lake is oligotrophic, having low dissolved solids and nutrient concentrations. Snowmelt runoff from an adjacent residential area, however, has a dissolved-solids concentration 10 times that of the main body of Sand...
