Application of the U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff simulation model to improve flood-frequency estimates on small Tennessee streams
Herman C. Wibben
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-120
The U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff simulation model was used in conjunction with National Weather Service climatological data to improve flood-frequency estimates for 52 small drainage basins in Tennessee. The basins range in size from 0.17 to 64 square miles (0.44 to 166 square kilometers) and are distributed throughout the State....
Water-quality study of a reach of the Merced River in Yosemite National Park and vicinity, California, April 1973 through September 1974
Ray J. Hoffman, Alex E. Dong, Gail L. Keeter
1976, Open-File Report 76-326
A 25-mile reach of the Merced River was studied to provide the U.S. National Park Service with water-quality data prior to the operation of a new sewage treatment plant. Water-quality variables investigated were discharge, temperature, major chemical constituents, selected trace metals, specific conductance, suspended sediment, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, pH ,...
Variation in concentration of selected water-quality constituents in the Sacramento River at Bend Bridge, California
Linda J. Britton, R. C. Averett
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-14
During an intensive water-quality study of the Sacramento River at Bend Bridge, Calif., from September 4 to 7, 1973, differences in selected water-quality constituent concentrations were evaluated at three locations at a single site in the river for two 24-hour periods. Water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance, selected major...
Erosional landform map of the Redwood Creek drainage basin, Humboldt County, California, 1947-74
K.M. Nolan, D.M. Harden, Steven M. Colman
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-42
Landslides and actively eroding stream channels disrupt roads, damage valuable timberland, and increase stream sediment loads in northwestern California. This 1:62,500 photointerpretative map shows the distribution of ten common types of fluvial and mass-movement erosional landforms in the drainage basin of Redwood Creek in 1947 and 1974. The mapped landforms...
Availability of ground water in the middle Merrimack River basin, central and southern New Hampshire
John E. Cotton
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-39
This report provides a guide for ground-water exploration and for water- and land-use planning and management.  Sufficient amounts of water to supply single family homes are available from the bedrock aquifer nearly everywhere in the middle Merrimack River basin.  Relatively thin and narrow, unconsolidated aquifers of sand or sand and...
Ground water favorability and surficial geology of the Portland area, Maine
Glenn C. Prescott
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 561
This hydrologic atlas describes the surficial geology and groundwater resources of about 240 square miles in Cumberland County, Maine. The most productive aquifers are outwash and ice-contact deposits. Their locations and the most favorable areas for obtaining large yields from them are indicated on the map. The largest reported yield...
Techniques for estimating flow characteristics of Wyoming streams
H. W. Lowham
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-112
This report presents relations for estimating peak flows and mean annual flow characteristics are: (1) The Channel-geometry method, whereby flow characteristics are related to channel dimensions; and (2) the basin-characteristics method, whereby flow characteristics are related to physiographic and climatic features of the drainage basin. Development of the channel-geometry method...
Ground-water quality in the Davie Landfill, Broward County, Florida
H. C. Mattraw Jr.
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-56
Ground-water adjacent to a disposal pond for septic tank sludge, oil, and grease at the Davie landfill, Broward County, Florida was tested for a variety of ground-water contaminants. Three wells adjacent to the disposal pond yielded water rich in nutrients, organic carbon and many other chemical constituents. Total coliform bacteria...
Water resources of the Myakka River basin area, southwest Florida
Boyd F. Joyner, Horace Sutcliffe Jr.
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-58
Ground water in the Myakka River basin area of southwest Floria is obtained from a water-table aquifer and from five zones in an artesian aquifer. Wells in the water-table aquifer yield generally less than 50 gpm and dissolved solids concentration is less than 500 mg/liter except in coastal areas and...
Water levels in artesian and nonartesian aquifers of Florida, 1973-74
Henry G. Healy
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-101
Based on measurements of water level in 675 wells selected from a network of about 1,300 observation wells, ground-water levels during May 1973 - May 1974 declined from 2 to 4 feet in the Floridan aquifer through most of north and central peninsular Florida. Hydrographs of 55 wells show the...
Digital-model analysis to predict water levels in a well field near Columbus, Indiana
Michael Planert
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-63
Columbus, Indiana, obtains its water supply from six municipally owned wells southwest of the city. The wells are screened in an outwash sand and gravel aquifer that was deposited by glacial melt water in a preglacial bedrock valley. The well field is midway between the East Fork White River and...
