Surface water of Beaver Creek Basin, in South-Central Oklahoma
L.L. Laine, J.J. Murphy
1962, Open-File Report 62-162
Annual discharge from Beaver Creek basin is estimated to have averaged 217,000 acre-feet during a 19-year base period, water years 1938-56, equivalent to an average annual runoff depth of 4.7 inches over the 857 square-mile drainage area. About 55,000 acre-feet per year comes from Little Beaver Creek basin, a tributary...
Relation between ground water and surface water in Brandywine Creek basin, Pennsylvania
F. H. Olmsted, A. G. Hely
1962, Professional Paper 417-A
The relation between ground water and surface water was studied in Brandywine Creek basin, an area of 287 square miles in the Piedmont physiographic province in southeastern Pennsylvania. Most of the basin is underlain by crystalline rocks that yield only small to moderate supplies of water to wells, but the...
Data on uranium and radium in ground water in the United States, 1954 to 1957
R. C. Scott, F. B. Barker
1962, Professional Paper 426
This report is one of a series resulting from a study by the U.S. Geological Survey to determine the occurrence and distribution of naturally radioactive substances in water. From 1954-57 uranium and radium concentrations were determined in 561 samples, mainly of ground water, having wide geologic and geographic distribution. These...
Short papers in geology, hydrology, and topography; articles 120-179
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1962, Professional Paper 450-D
This collection of 60 short papers on subjects in the fields of geology, hydrology, topography, and related sciences is the third of a series to be released during the year as chapters of Professional Paper 450. The papers in this chapter report on the scientific and economic results of current...
Ground-water reconnaissance in Round Valley, Custer County, Idaho
E. G. Crosthwaite
1962, Open-File Report 62-33
Round Valley in central Idaho contains alluvial deposits of Pleistocene and Recent age which yield adequate supplies of ground water for stock and domestic wells. The alluvial deposits are underlain by Challis Volcanics of Oligocene or Early Miocene age and a few wells obtain domestic and stock water from the...
Effect of reservoir storage on peak flow
William D. Mitchell
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-C
For observation of small-basin flood peaks, numerous crest-stage gages now are operated at culverts in roadway embankments. To the extent that they obstruct the natural flood plains of the streams, these embankments serve to create detention reservoirs, and thus to reduce the magnitude of observed peak flows. Hence, it is...
Reconnaissance of ground-water resources in the Western Coal Field Region, Kentucky
Bruce William Maxwell, Robert Washburn Devaul
1962, Water Supply Paper 1599
In the Western Coal Field region of Kentucky, water is obtained from consolidated sedimentary rocks of Mississippian and Pennsylvanian ages and from unconsolidated sediments of Cenozoic age. Pennsylvanian rocks crop out in more than 95 percent of the area and consist of shale and sandstone interbedded with some limestone and...
