In 1960, floods caused extensive damage to agribusiness in Jumper Creek Canal basin. In 1962, a plan was developed for a proposed project to reduce the threat of floods. In 1976, a study of the hydrology of the basin was proposed to help evaluate this plan and to serve as...

A method is presented for estimating flood magnitudes for natural drainage basins without urban development or regulated flow. The method was developed by multiple-regression techniques and applies to floods with recurrence intervals from 2 to 100 years.The State is divided into three regions, and sets of equations for calculating peak...

A dam and reservoir have been proposed for construction on Center Creek, Jasper County, in southwestern Missouri. Ground-water levels in the hills adjacent to the reservoir will rise when the impoundment is completed. One of the problems is that the proposed site of Prosperity Reservoir is a few miles upstream...

Mount Shasta has erupted, on the average, at least once per 800 years during the last 10,000 years, and about once per 600 years during the last 4,500 years. The last known eruption occurred about 200 radiocarbon years ago. Eruptions during the last 10,000 years produced lava flows and domes...

A hydrologic reconnaissance of the southeastern part of St. Paul Island, Pribilof Islands, Alaska, was made in August 1979 to determine if sufficient freshwater is available for a proposed harbor and fish-processing facility. Only three wells were being used in 1979, two by the community of St. Paul and one...

Beginning in October 1976, a program of water-level monitoring of abandoned water wells was initiated in the Palmdale area with the purpose of identifying possible water-level changes premonitory to a major earthquake on the San Andreas fault. In October 1977, the program was extended southeastward along the rift zone to...

Because of growing interest in the role of lakes and wetlands in the hydrology of the prairie environment, a group of wetlands in the Cottonwood Lake area, Stutsman County, are being instrumented for long-term hydrologic studies. The study site is on a regional topographic high near the eastern edge of...

During the summers and autumns of 1973, 1974, and 1975, water-quality data were collected and compiled for 56 lakes and reservoirs in Colorado. The lakes and reservoirs sampled range from large reservoirs in the eastern part of the State to smaller natural lakes in the higher western parts of the...

Increased urbanization in Broward County has contributed to canals being used as receptacles for urban wastes, sewage effluent, and stormwater runoff. The introduction of contaminants into the canals may affect the water quality. In 1969 the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Broward County Pollution Control Board and the...

A map, scale 1:20,000, shows water depths, rocks, and hazards to navigation. These data are noted on track lines run by the Research Vessel Growler in Alaskan waters, where data on navigation shown on published charts are nonexistant, preliminary, or out dated....

The Pierre Shale and equivalent rocks of Late Cretaceous age consist in the east-central Dakotas of several hundred feet of offshore-marine shale and minor marl; in west-central Montana near the sediment source the equivalents of the Pierre Shale consist of several thousand feet of volcanic-rich and mostly nonmarine sediments; and...

The hydrology and geology of Williams Lake watershed was studied to evaluate the accuracy of various methods used to determine precipitation and evaporation in lake water-balance studies and to define a lake and ground-water system according to approaches suggested by theoretical modeling studies. Regression analysis between estimated and measured precipitation...

The ground-water basin beneath the city of Thousand Oaks, Calif. , corresponds closely in area with the surface-water drainage basin of Conejo Valley. Before World War II there was little ground-water development. After World War II, urban development put a stress on the ground-water basin; many wells were drilled and...

Fifty-six peat deposits in northern Penobscot, eastern Piscataquis, and eastern Aroostook Counties, Maine, were investigated for peat resources. The total yield is an estimated 35,196,000 short tons air-dried peat, predominantly sphagnum moss and reed-sedge types. This peat, suitable for horticultural and agricultural uses, also has higher heating values and lower...

Forty samples of Tertiary and Cretaceous outcrop or suspected outcrop were dredged along the 250-km-long northwest-trending continental slope between long 138°00' W. and 142°30' W. These samples, from water depths of 3,150 m to 200 m, combined with seismic reflection data, identify seven rock units in apparently normal stratigraphic position....

The development of ground water for irrigation in northwestern Big Stone County has not kept up with development in other irrigable areas of the State. This is due, in part, to the absence of extensive surficial aquifers and the difficulty in locating buried aquifers. Test augering south of Beardsley outlined a...

Hydrogeologic data were collected in selected coal areas of east-central Montana to provide a basis for evaluating the effects of future coal development on the groundwater resources. Inventory records for 916 domestic, stock, public supply, commercial, and test wells are tabulated in the report; the data were collected principally from...

Aeromagnetic, aeroradioactivity, and gravity surveys of Fairfax County, Virginia, are interpreted with the aid of existing geologic data and local geophysical measurements. Highly magnetic metasedimentary rocks of the Peters Creek Schist and Sykesville Formation produce most of the magnetic anomalies of Fairfax County. In contrast, the granitoid rocks of the...

Hydrologic investigations of urban drainage basins in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. These studies are now in progress in Austin, Dallas, Dallas County, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio.The Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Texas Department of Water Resources, expanded the existing gaging-station network...
