Cost analysis of ground-water supplies in the North Atlantic region, 1970
Dagfin John Cederstrom
1973, Water Supply Paper 2034
The cost of municipal and industrial ground water (or, more specifically, large supplies of ground water) at the wellhead in the North Atlantic Region in 1970 generally ranged from 1.5 to 5 cents per thousand gallons. Water from crystalline rocks and shale is relatively expensive. Water from sandstone is less...
Improvement of trout streams in Wisconsin by augmenting low flows with ground water
R.P. Novitzki
1973, Water Supply Paper 2017
Approximately 2 cubic feet per second of ground water were introduced into the Little Plover River in 1968 when natural streamflow ranged from 3 to 4 cubic feet per second. These augmentation flows were retained undiminished through the 2-mile reach of stream monitored. Maximum stream temperatures were reduced as much...

Ground-water levels in the United States, 1967-71, north-central States
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1973, Water Supply Paper 2090
Publication of ground-water level data for the United States in watersupply papers was begun by the Geological Survey in 1935. From 1935 through 1939, a single water-supply paper for each year covering the entire Nation was issued (Water-Supply Papers 777, 817, 840, 845, and 886). Since then water-supply papers have...
Ground water in the Eugene-Springfield area, southern Willamette Valley, Oregon
F. J. Frank
1973, Water Supply Paper 2018
The cities of Eugene and Springfield and their outlying suburban and rural districts constitute an area of rapid population growth where progressively greater volumes of ground water are being required for irrigation and industrial and public supplies. The area is also one of diverse geologic and hydrologic conditions. As used...

Use of finite-difference arrays of observation wells to estimate evapotranspiration from ground water in the Arkansas River Valley, Colorado
Edwin P. Weeks, M.L. Sorey
1973, Water Supply Paper 2029-C
A method to determine evapotranspiration from ground water was tested at four sites in the flood plain of the Arkansas River in Colorado. Approximate ground-water budgets were obtained by analyzing water-level data from observation wells installed in five-point arrays. The analyses were based on finite difference approximations of the differential...
Availability of ground water for irrigation from glacial outwash in the Perham area, Otter Tail County, Minnesota
Harold O. Reeder
1972, Water Supply Paper 2003
The Perham study area includes about 350 square miles of surficial deposits of glacial outwash in the central part of Otter Tail County in west-central Minnesota. The aquifer characteristics have a wide range, as follows: Transmissivity values range from nearly 0 along the perimeter of the area to more than...
Movement and dispersion of soluble pollutants in the Northeast Cape Fear Estuary, North Carolina
E. F. Hubbard, William G. Stamper
1972, Water Supply Paper 1873-E
This report presents the results of a fluorescent-dye-tracing study to determine the concentrations of a pollutant that would be present in the Northeast Cape Fear Estuary at various rates of continuous waste injection and freshwater inflow. Rhodamine WT dye was introduced into the estuary at a constant rate over a...
Electric analog studies of flow to wells in the Punjab aquifer of West Pakistan
Maurice John Mundorff, G.D. Bennett, Masood Ahmad
1972, Water Supply Paper 1608-N
A series of experiments was performed with a steady-state electric analog simulating a cylindrical segment of the aquifer underlying the plains of the Punjab region of West Pakistan. In most of the experiments recharge was assumed to be from the surface, within a specified radius of influence, and distributed uniformly...
Availability of water in Kalamazoo County, southwestern Michigan
William Burrows Allen, John B. Miller, Warren W. Wood
1972, Water Supply Paper 1973
Kalamazoo County comprises an area of 572 square miles in the southwestern part of Michigan. It includes parts of the Kalamazoo, St. Joseph, and Paw Paw River basins, which drain into Lake Michigan. The northern two-thirds of the county is drained by the Kalamazoo River and its tributaries. A small...

Electrical-analog analysis of the hydrologic system, Tucson basin, southeastern Arizona
T. W. Anderson
1972, Water Supply Paper 1939-C
The water supply for the Tucson basin, Arizona, is derived entirely from ground water. The average annual pumpage for 1962-64 was about 165,000 acre-feet and was greater than the natural rate of ground-water recharge. Water-level declines of as much as 70 feet occurred from spring 1940 to spring 1965 as...
Hydrologic interpretations based on infrared imagery of Long Island, New York
Edward J. Pluhowski
1972, Water Supply Paper 2009-B
Six remote-sensing flights over Long Island's north and south shores were made during the period July 13, 1967, to February 25, 1970. Infrared imagery in the 8- to 14-micrometer range was obtained; results varied from poor to excellent in quality. The ability of the RS 7 and Reconofax IV imagers...

1972, Water Supply Paper 2000
Oakland County, an area of 899 square miles, is in southeastern Michigan. The southern part of the county is overlapped by the suburbs of the city of Detroit. In 1970, about 850,000 people were living in the county and using about 100 million gallons of water a day. More than...
Definitions of selected ground-water terms, revisions and conceptual refinements
Stanley William Lohman
1972, Water Supply Paper 1988
For many years there has been a need for redefinition or more precise definition of certain ground-water terms used in publications by members of the U.S . Geological Survey. Another problem has been the expression of the coefficient of permeability (herein redefined as hydraulic conductivity) and the coefficient of transmissibility...
