Sea birds wintering off Maryland shores, 1972-73
R.A. Rowlett
1973, Maryland Birdlife (29) 88-102
During the winter of 1972-73, studies were conducted to determine the status and distribution of pelagic species of birds occurring at sea as far as 38 miles east of Ocean City, Md. The wintering off-shore avifauna was found to be impressively rich in variety of species and numbers of...
Water resources data for Louisiana, water year 1972
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1973, Water Data Report LA-72-1
Water-resources data for the 1972 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. Records for a few pertinent gaging stations...
Roughness coefficients for stream channels in Arizona
B. N. Aldridge, J.M. Garrett
1973, Open-File Report 73-3
When water flows in an open channel, energy is lost through friction along the banks and bed of the channel and through turbulence within the channel. The amount of energy lost is governed by channel roughness, which is expressed in terms of a roughness coefficient. An evaluation of the roughness...
Water resources data for Wyoming, water year 1972; part 2, water quality records
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1973, Water Data Report WY-72-2
Water-resources data for the 1972 water year for Wyoming include records of data for the chemical and physical characteristics of surface and ground water. Data on the quality of surface water (chemical, temperature, and sediment) were collected from designated sampling sites at predetermined intervals such as once daily, weekly, monthly...
Review of wastewater problems and wastewater-management planning in the San Francisco Bay region, California
Walter G. Hines
1973, Open-File Report 73-112
The San Francisco Bay region has suffered adverse environmental effects related to the discharge of municipal-, industrial-, and agricultural- wastewater and storm-water runoff. Specific pollutional properties of theses discharges are not well understood in all cases although the toxic materials and aquatic-plant nutrients (biostimulants) found in municipal and industrial...
Floods in the Iowa River basin upstream from Coralville Lake, Iowa
Albert J. Heinitz
1973, Open-File Report 73-106
Flood information is reported for 207 miles of the main stem, 23 miles on the West Branch, and 23 miles on the East Branch, of the Iowa River. The information will be of use to those concerned with the design of bridges and other structures and the conduct of various...
Hydrologic characteristics of Alder Creek, Iron County, Wisconsin
B. K. Holmstrom, W.A. Gebert, Ronald G. Borman
1973, Open-File Report 74-1049
The purpose of this study was to determine the hydrologic characteristics of Alder Creek, Iron County, Wisconsin, which are needed by water-resource planners to evaluate a reservoir site proposed by the Whitecap Mountain Corporation on Alder Creek. The hydrologic characteristics estimated were the mean flows, low flows, flood peaks, suspended-sediment...
Water resources data for Washington, water year 1972; Part 1, Surface water records
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1973, Water Data Report WA-72-1
Surface-water records for the 1972 water year for Washington, including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, are given in this report and their locations shown in figures 1, 2. Records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States also are included....
Water resources of Wisconsin — Trempealeau-Black River basin
H. L. Young, Ronald G. Borman
1973, Hydrologic Atlas 474
The purpose of this report is to describe the physical environment, availability, characteristics, distribution, movement, and quality of water in the lower Wisconsin River basin. In addition, water use and water problems are summarized to aid in water management within the basin. Detailed water studies will be necessary as the...
Base of fresh ground water approximately 3,000 micromhos in the Sacramento Valley and Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California
Charles F. Berkstresser Jr.
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-40
The study area consists of about 6,600 square miles; about 5,500 square miles of the floor of the Sacramento Valley, and about 1,100 square miles of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.  The Sacramento Valley, as defined by Bryan (1923, p. 8), extends from Red Bluff 145 miles southward to Suisun Bay. ...
Role of water in urban planning and management
William Joseph Schneider, David A. Rickert, Andrew Maute Spieker
1973, Circular 601-H
Concentrations of people in urban areas intensify water problems such as flooding and pollution, but these deleterious effects on water resources can be minimized or corrected by comprehensive planning and management. Such planning of the water resources of an urban area must be based on adequate hydrologic data. Through the use...
