1972, Water Data Report KS-71-2
Water-resources data for the 1971 water year for Kansas include records of data for the chemical and physical characteristics of surface and ground water. Data on the quality of surface water (chemical, microbiological, temperature, and sediment) were collected from designated sampling sites at predetermined intervals such as once daily, weekly,...
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...

A study of the Flint River, Michigan, as it relates to low-flow augmentation
Gordon C. Hulbert
1972, Open-File Report 72-175
One of the uses of the Flint River is dilution of waste-water. Population and industrial growth in the Flint area hah placed new demands on the stream and emphasized the need for an analysis of the surface water resources of the basin. This report describes selected streamflow characteristics of the...

Ground-water resources and geology of Cook County, Georgia
Charles W. Sever
1972, Open-File Report 72-345
Aquifer-performance tests and aquifer studies indicate that the limestone beneath the city of Adel and probably most of Cook County contains potable water to a depth of only about 400 to 500 feet and that "deep" wells that tap these limestones obtain most of their water from a few thin,...
Shallow ground water in the Zamin Dawar area, Helmand Province, Afghanistan
N. E. McClymonds
1972, Open-File Report 73-166
The Zamin Dawar area lies between Kajakai Reservoir and Musa Qala Rud (river) in southcentral Afghanistan, about 90 km (kilometers) northeast of Lashkar Gab. The area comprises two main stream drainage areas: that of Gulmesh Mandeh (ephemeral stream) to the east which includes mostly plains with low hills on the...
Travel time for solutes, upper Sabine River basin, Texas, April 16-30, 1972
Willard B. Mills
1972, Open-File Report 72-257
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Sabine River Compact Administration, conducted time-of-travel studies in the Sabine River Basin on April 16-30, 1972. One study was made on the main stem of the Sabine River in four reaches from Lake Tawakoni to Toledo Bend Reservoir, a distance of 219...
The ground-water system in southeastern Laramie County, Wyoming
Marvin A. Crist, William B. Borchert
1972, Open-File Report 72-80
Increased development of irrigation wells in southeastern Laramie County, Wyo., has caused concern about the quantity of water available. Ground water from approximately 230 large-capacity wells is used to irrigate most of the 18,165 acres under irrigation. The purpose of this study is to provide more knowledge about the character...

Water in St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands
O. J. Cosner
1972, Open-File Report 72-78
Water for domestic and municipal supply on St. John, in the past, has been obtained from rain catchments, dug wells, and barge shipments from St. Thomas and Puerto Rico. As a result of this study, small ground-water supplies have been developed for the Virgin Islands National Park. Ground water occurs...

Model hydrographs are composed of pairs of dimensionless ratios, arrayed in tabular form, which, when modified by the appropriate values of rainfall exceed and by the time and areal characteristics of the drainage basin, satisfactorily represent the flood hydrograph for the basin. Model bydrographs are developed from a dimensionless translation...

Ground-water hydrology of prairie potholes in North Dakota
C. E. Sloan
1972, Professional Paper 585-C
Prairie potholes (sloughs) are water-holding depressions of glacial origin in the prairies of the Northern United States and southern Canada. Water is supplied to the potholes by precipitation on the water surface, basin runoff, and seepage inflow of ground water. Depleticn of pothole water results from evapotranspiration, overflow, and seepage...
