Reclamation by tubewell drainage in Rechna Doab and adjacent areas, Punjab region, Pakistan
Glenn T. Malmberg
1975, Water Supply Paper 1608-O
Around the turn of the century, a network of more than 40,000 miles of canals was constructed to divert water from the Indus River and its tributaries to about 23 million acres of largely unused desert in the Punjab region of Pakistan. The favorable climate and the perennial supply of...

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...

1974, Water Supply Paper 2134
This report is one of a series of 37 reports presenting records of stage and discharge of streams, and of stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs in the United States during the 1966-70 water years; it contains the records for gaging stations and partial-record stations in the Snake River Basin. Since 1888, when...
Effects of land use and retention practices on sediment yields in the Stony Brook basin, New Jersey
Lawrence J. Mansue, Peter W. Anderson
1974, Water Supply Paper 1798-L
The average annual rate of suspended-sediment discharge of the Stony Brook at Princeton, N.J. (44.5 square miles) is about 8,800 tons, or 200 tons per square mile. Annual yields within the basin, which is in the Piedmont Lowlands section of the Piedmont physiographic province in west-central New Jersey, range from...
Sediment transport by streams draining into the Delaware Estuary
Lawrence J. Mansue, Allen B. Commings
1974, Water Supply Paper 1532-H
The quantity of sediment transported by streams draining into the Delaware estuary from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware varies areally according to geology, physiography, and land use. Of the estimated total sediment load of 1.6 million tons entering the Delaware estuary annually, about 48 percent is contributed by the Delaware...

Analog model study of the ground-water basin of the Upper Coachella Valley, California
Stephen J. Tyley
1974, Water Supply Paper 2027
An analog model of the ground-water basin of the upper Coachella Valley was constructed to determine the effects of imported water on ground-water levels. The model was considered verified when the ground-water levels generated by the model approximated the historical change in water levels of the ground-water basin caused by...

Floods of June 1965 in Arkansas River basin, Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexico
R.J. Snipes
1974, Water Supply Paper 1850-D
Maximum discharges during the floods of June 1965 in the Arkansas River basin in Colorado, Kansas, and New Mexico were greater than those previously known at 49 of the 137 locations where flood information was obtained. Property damage exceeded $60 million, and 16 lives were lost. At many sites, peak...

Appraisal of operating efficiency of recharge basins on Long Island, New York, in 1969
D. A. Aronson, G.E. Seaburn
1974, Water Supply Paper 2001-D
Recharge basins on Long Island are unlined pits of various shapes and sizes excavated in surficial deposits of mainly glacial origin. Of the 2,124 recharge basins on Long Island in 1969, approximately 9 percent (194) contain water 5 or more days after a 1-inch rainfall. Basins on Long Island contain...
