Large springs of east Tennessee
Pao-chang P. Sun, J.H. Criner, J. L. Poole
1963, Water Supply Paper 1755
Springs constitute an important source of water in east Tennessee, and many individual springs are capable of supplying the large quantities needed for municipal and industrial supplies. Most of the springs in east Tennessee issue from solution openings and fractured and faulted zones in limestone and dolomite of the Knox...

Magnitude and frequency of floods in the United States, part 13. Snake River basin
C.A. Thomas, H. C. Broom, J. E. Cummans
1963, Water Supply Paper 1688
The magnitude of a flood of any selected frequency up to 50 years for any site on any stream in the Snake River basin can be determined by methods outlined in this report, with some limitations. The methods are not applicable for regulated streams, for drainage basins smaller than 10...

Ground-water geology of Karnes County, Texas
Robert B. Anders
1963, Water Supply Paper 1539-G
The exposed rocks and those underlying Karnes County dip toward the Gulf of Mexico at average rates ranging from 20 to more than 200 feet per mile. The oil fields are on structures associated with faulting; the effect of faulting on the occurrence of ground water has not been determined. The...
Geology of the Jewel Cave SW Quadrangle, Custer County, South Dakota
William A. Braddock
1963, Bulletin 1063-G
The Jewel Cave SW quadrangle is in the southwestern part of the Black Hills in Custer County, S. Dak., about midway between Edgemont, S. Dak., and Newcastle, Wyo. All the rocks that crop out within the quadrangle are of sedimentary origin and range in age from Pennsylvanian to Early Cretaceous. The...

1963, Water Supply Paper 1692
Two hundred and forty-five dispersions of long-chain alkanols were formulated by using various emulsifiers and alkanols. The dispensing and spreading ability of each of these formulations was tested. The most promising emulsifier that could be used with any of the alkanols was glyceryl monostearate (self-emulsifying). However, the concentration of the...

Determination of beta activity in water
F. B. Barker, B.P. Robinson
1963, Water Supply Paper 1696-A
Many elements have one or more naturally radioactive isotopes, and several hundred other radionuclides have been produced artificially. Radioactive substances may be present in natural water as a result of geochemical processes or the release of radioactive waste and other nuclear debris to the environment. The Geological Survey has developed...

Geology and ground-water resources of the Lake Dakota Plain area, South Dakota
William B. Hopkins, Lester R. Petri
1963, Water Supply Paper 1539-T
The Lake Dakota plain area is a nearly flat surface that includes parts of Spink, Brown, Marshall, and Day Counties in northeastern South Dakota. Agriculture is the principal occupation. Because precipitation often is insufficient for maximum crop production, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation has developed a plan for irrigation of...

Low-flow frequency curves for selected long-term stream gaging stations in eastern United States
Clayton H. Hardison, Robert O.R. Martin
1963, Water Supply Paper 1669-G
Curves showing the magnitude and frequency of annual low flow at 85 streamgaging stations located in 17 States east and 5 States west of the Mississippi River have been smoothed and adjusted to one of four long-term periods. They are presented to show the similarity and dissimilarity of curves even...
Effects of drought in basins of interior drainage: Chapter E in Drought in the Southwest, 1942-56
H. E. Thomas
1963, Professional Paper 372-E
The effects of the recent drought 1942-56 have varied widely in the Southwestern basins of interior drainage which include, in addition to the Great Basin of Nevada, Utah, and California many smaller basins in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona. These closed basins are characteristically separate hydrologic units, and their water...

Development of a hand portable rainfall-simulator infiltrometer
I.S. McQueen
1963, Circular 482
Comparisons of relative infiltration of summer thundershowers into undisturbed and treated western dry lands are necessary for guidance of future treatment practices. A system designed for measuring infiltration of simulated rainfall into small plots of undisturbed soil that can be hand-carried to sites inaccessible to vehicles has been developed. Disturbance...
