Fresh and saline ground-water zones in the Punjab region, West Pakistan
W.V. Swarzenski
1968, Water Supply Paper 1608-I
An extensive program of test drilling and water sampling, undertaken by the Water and Soils Investigation Division (WASID) of the West Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) to evaluate hydrologic problems related to waterlogging and soil salinity, has furnished data for the delineation of fresh and saline ground-water zones...
Geology and ground-water resources of Fillmore County, Nebraska, with a section on chemical quality of the water
Charles Franklin Keech, V. H. Dreeszen, L. R. Petri
1968, Water Supply Paper 1839-L
Fillmore County, an area 24 miles square, lies in the eastern part of the Nebraska loess plain. Although tributaries of the Big Blue River have eroded valleys into this plain, much of the original surface is intact. Broad flats and numerous shallow undrained depressions characterize the plain. The county is...
Ground-water reconnaissance of the Santa Barbara-Montecito area, Santa Barbara County, California
K. S. Muir
1968, Water Supply Paper 1859-A
This is the third interpretive report prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Santa Barbara County Water Agency on the groundwater resources of areas along the south coast of the county. The two previous reports--one by J. E. Upson in 1951 and another by R. E. Evenson,...
Ground water in the vicinity of American Falls Reservoir, Idaho
Maurice John Mundorff
1967, Water Supply Paper 1846
Analysis of ground- and surface-water relationships suggests that increasing the capacity of the American Falls Reservoir by raising the height of the dam 15 feet would increase leakage from the reservoir by less than 0.2 percent of the average inflow to the reservoir, or less than 10,000 acre feet per year. This amount is...
Causes of fluctuations in the rate of discharge of Clear Lake Springs, Millard County, Utah
R. W. Mower
1967, Water Supply Paper 1839-E
The Clear Lake Springs in southeastern Millard County are the source of water for the maintenance of the Clear Lakes Migratory Waterfowl Refuge. Seasonal declines in the rate of discharge were noted during 1959-60.Fluctuations in the flow of Clear Lake Springs are caused both by natural variations in the quantity...

Annual variations in chemical composition of atmospheric precipitation, eastern North Carolina and southeastern Virginia
Donald W. Fisher
1967, Water Supply Paper 1535-M
A 2-year study of precipitation composition over eastern North Carolina and southeastern Virginia has been completed. Chemical analyses were made of the major ions in monthly rainfall samples from each of 12 sampling locations. Areal and seasonal distributions were determined for chloride, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, sulfate, and nitrate. Annual...
A comparison of methods of estimating potential evapotranspiration from climatological data in arid and subhumid environments
R.W. Cruff, T. H. Thompson
1967, Water Supply Paper 1839-M
This study compared potential evapotranspiration, computed from climatological data by each of six empirical methods, with pan evaporation adjusted to equivalent lake evaporation by regional coefficients. The six methods tested were the Thornthwaite, U.S. Weather Bureau (a modification of the Permian method), Lowry-Johnson, Blaney-Criddle, Lane, and Hamon methods. The test...

Geology and ground-water resources of Laramie County, Wyoming
Marlin E. Lowry, Marvin A. Crist, John R. Tilstra
1967, Water Supply Paper 1834
Laramie County, an area of 2,709 square miles, is in the southeast corner of Wyoming. Rocks exposed there range in age from Precambrian to Recent. The most extensive aquifers in the county are the White River Formation of Oligocene age, which is as much as 500 feet thick and consists...
Geology and ground-water resources of the Big Sandy Creek Valley, Lincoln, Cheyenne, and Kiowa Counties, Colorado
Donald L. Coffin, Clarence Albert Horr
1967, Water Supply Paper 1843
This report describes the geology and ground-water resources of that part of the Big Sandy Creek valley from about 6 miles east of Limon, Colo., downstream to the Kiowa County and Prowers County line, an area of about 1,400 square miles. The valley is drained by Big Sandy Creek and...
Definition of stage-discharge relation in natural channels by step-backwater analysis
James F. Bailey, H.A. Ray
1967, Water Supply Paper 1869-A
The step-backwater method was investigated as a technique for defining the upper part of stage-discharge relation in a natural channel. State-discharge relations at 28 sites were computed by using this technique and compared with corresponding stage-discharge relations defined by current-meter measurements. In general, the agreement is remarkably good, and the...

Ground-water hydrology of the Punjab region of West Pakistan, with emphasis on problems caused by canal irrigation
D.W. Greenman, W.V. Swarzenski, G.D. Bennett
1967, Water Supply Paper 1608-H
Rising water tables and the salinization of land as the result of canal irrigation threaten the agricultural economy of the Punjab. Since 1954 the Water and Soils Investigation Division of the West Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority has inventoried the water and soils resources of the Punjab and investigated...
