Ground-water resources of Kleberg County, Texas
Penn Poore Livingston, Thomas W. Bridges
1936, Water Supply Paper 773-D
Abundant supplies of fresh water are obtained from deep artesian wells In all parts of Kleberg County. The water is derived from a stratum of sand, 10 to 150 feet thick, which usually has been referred to the Goliad sand but possibly may be at the base of the LIssie...
Water resources of the Edwards limestone in the San Antonio area, Texas
Penn Livingston, A.N. Sayre, W. N. White
1936, Water Supply Paper 773-B
The water discharged from the large springs of San Antonio and most of the deep wells of the San Antonio area comes from a common reservoir in fissures and solution channels in the Edwards limestone. The water enters the limestone in a zone of outcrop along the Balcones escarpment, which crosses...
Geology and ground-water resources of Uvalde and Medina Counties, Texas
Albert Nelson Sayre
1936, Water Supply Paper 678
This report is based on an investigation by the United States Geological Survey, the Texas State Board of Water Engineers, and the Texas State Board of Health to determine the ground-water resources of Uvalde and Medina Counties, especially in relation to irrigation, both in these counties and in the counties...
Floods in the United States — Magnitude and frequency
Clarence S. Jarvis
1936, Water Supply Paper 771
From time immemorial floods have transformed beneficent river waters into a menace to humanity. Man's progress toward economic stability has been repeatedly halted or even thrown backward by the interruption of his efforts to make effective use of rivers and of valley lands. This handicap is not imposed by the...
The channel‐storage method of determining effluent seepage
Oscar E. Meinzer, R.C. Cady, R.M. Leggette, V.C. Fishel
1936, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (17) 415-418
Some years ago the senior author, in collaboration with Norah Dowell Stearns, undertook to make a monthly inventory of the water‐supply of the Pomperaug River Basin, in Connecticut, from a study of data obtained by A. J. Ellis from 1913 to 1916. For this purpose approximate determinations or estimates were...
Several methods of studying fluctuations of ground‐water levels
Leland K. Wenzel
1936, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (17) 400-405
As a result of increased interest in ground‐water conditions in recent years, records of water‐levels in wells are now being collected in many places in the United States for the primary purpose of determining the relation of precipitation and other natural factors to fluctuations in water‐level. In the past, records...
Introduction: Some problems relating to fluctuations of ground‐water level
D. G. Thompson
1936, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (17) 337-341
When the program for the meeting of the Section of Hydrology a year ago was in preparation, it was suggested that a symposium be presented on the subject of the effects of the recent drought on ground‐water levels. The proposal was not carried out largely because at that time not...
Suspended matter in several small streams
Samuel K. Love
1936, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (17) 447-452
The measurement of the loads of suspended matter carried past 34 gaging‐stations located on streams in eight regional projects of the Soil Conservation Service has required greater precision in the measurement of discharge and a more intensive program for the collection of samples of suspended matter than has been found...
Fluctuations of ground‐water levels in Utah
G.H. Taylor
1936, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (17) 378-382
Long‐time continuous records of the fluctuations of ground‐water levels have been obtained at relatively few locations in the United States. Among the few available records for Utah that extend continuously over a period of a year or more are those made in the Jordan River and Ogden valleys by the...
