Effects of organic solutes on chemical reactions of aluminum
Carol J. Lind, John David Hem
1975, Water Supply Paper 1827-G
Concentrations of organic matter in the general range of 1-10 milligrams per litre organic carbon are common in natural water, and many naturally occurrin7 organic compounds form aluminum complexes. The aluminum concentrations in near-neutral pH solutions may be 10-100 times higher than the values predicted from solubility data if formation...
Aeromagnetic map of the Nabesna Quadrangle, Alaska
Andrew Griscom
1975, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 655-H
The aeromagnetic map (sheet 1) of the Nabesna quadrangle was prepared in 1971 and subsequently released by the State of Alaska as an open-file map (Alaska Div. Geol. and Geophysics, 1973). The data were collected along north-south traverses spaced at 1.6 km intervals at an altitude of 330 m (1000...

Reactions of aqueous aluminum species at mineral surfaces
David Wayne Brown, John David Hem
1975, Water Supply Paper 1827-F
Aqueous aluminum solutions containing 4.5 ? 10 4 molar aluminum in 0.01 molar NaC104 were partly neutralized with NaOH to give OH:A1 mole ratios from 1.40 to 2.76. Measured amounts of montmorillonite, kaolinite, volcanic ash, or feldspathic sand were added to provide an area of inert surface. Reactions that occurred...

1975, Water Data Report LA-74-1
Water resources data for the 1974 water year for Louisiana including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, and records of water-quality data on the chemical and physical characteristics of surface water, are given in this report. In Part 1, records are included...
The geologic story of Isle Royale National Park
N. King Huber
1975, Bulletin 1309
Isle Royale is an outstanding example of relatively undisturbed northwoods lake wilderness. But more than simple preservation of such an environment is involved in its inclusion in our National Park System. Its isolation from the mainland provides an almost untouched laboratory for research in the natural sciences, especially those studies...
Flood of April 1975 at Lansing, Michigan
John B. Miller, L.A. Swallow
1975, Open-File Report 75-300
On April 18 between 5 p.m. and 12 p.m. an intense rainstorm fell in the Lansing area resulting in extensive flooding. The Federal Disaster Assistance Administration estimated that 175 homes were damaged to at least half their value, 4,500 received some damage, with additional losses to schools, utilities, hospitals, and...
Flood of April 1975 at Meridian Township, Michigan
R. L. Knutilla, L.A. Swallow
1975, Open-File Report 75-301
On April 18 between 5 p.m. and 12 p.m. Meridian Township experienced an intense rain storm that caused the Red Cedar River to overflow its banks resulting in extensive flooding. The Federal Disaster Assistance Administration report that five homes were destroyed, and 332 homes and 10 businesses damaged. Early estimates...
Optimizing information transfer in a stream-gaging network
Philip Hadley Carrigan Jr., Harold G. Golden
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-30
Networks of small stream (drainage area less than 50 square miles or 130 square kilometres) flood gages have been operated throughout the country for a number of years to supplement flood information already available for large streams. The goal in operating these networks has been to obtain sufficient data for...

Flood of April 1975 at Williamston, Michigan
R. L. Knutilla, L.A. Swallow
1975, Open-File Report 75-289
On April 18 between 5 p.m. and 12 p.m. the city of Williamston experienced an intense rain storm that caused the Red Cedar River and the many small streams in the area to overflow their banks and resulted in the most devastating flood since at least 1904. Local officials estimated...
Satellite relay and processing of hydrologic data in south Florida
E.T. Wimberly
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-12
Management of water in south Florida requires current hydrologic data on water levels and rainfall. This need is being met by a data processing system which provides near-real-time data from remote areas. The flow of data is from data-collection platforms at field sites via LANDSAT-1 satellite to the National Aeronautics...

Erosion and sediment transport in the Owens River near Bishop, California
Rhea P. Williams
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-49
Closure of Pleasant Valley Dam in 1954 has almost eliminated the supply of gravel to the 16-mile (25.7-kilometre) study reach of the Owens River. Because of armoring of the channel, scour has been limited to approximately 1 foot (0.3 metre) in the upper 2.3 miles (3.7 kilometres).This report presents information...
