1987, Open-File Report 87-383
In South Dakota, the first collection of streamflow data by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) was in 1903. Despite its early beginning, it was not until October 16, 1944, that the Bismarck District, comprising the states of North Dakota and South Dakota , was created to assess the water resources...
Sediment-transport curves
G.D. Glysson
1987, Open-File Report 87-218
The process of developing a sediment transport curve is discussed with respect to the choice of dependent and independent variables, procedures for developing a transport curve, and the effects that seasons, major sediment transporting events, and timing of peaks can have on the shape of sediment transport curves. Examples of...
