User's guide for a general purpose dam-break flood simulation model (K-634)
Larry F. Land
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-116
An existing computer program for simulating dam-break floods for forecast purposes has been modified with an emphasis on general purpose applications. The original model was formulated, developed and documented by the National Weather Service. This model is based on the complete flow equations and uses a nonlinear implicit finite-difference numerical...
Assessment of the Santa Margarita Sandstone as a source of drinking water for the Scotts Valley area, Santa Cruz County, California
K. S. Muir
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-6
Scotts Valley, Calif., is a rural residential area with a rapidly expanding population. Its mediterranean-type climate yields an average annual rainfall of 40 inches. The Santa Margarita Sandstone is the principal aquifer in the area, supplying about 90 percent of all water for domestic purposes. Sources of recharge for the...
Characterization of floodflows along the Arkansas River without regulation by Pueblo Reservoir, Portland to John Martin Reservoir, Southeastern Colorado
John R. Little, Daniel P. Bauer
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-97
The need for a method for estimating flow characteristics of flood hydrographs between Portland, Colo., and John Martin Reservoir has been promoted with the construction of the Pueble Reservoir. To meet this need a procedure was developed for predicting floodflow peaks, traveltimes, and volumes at any point along the Arkansas...
Ground-water resources of the White River basin, Madison County, Indiana
Wayne W. Lapham
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-35
The ground-water resources of the White River basin in and near Madison County, Indiana, were investigated by mapping the aquifers, estimating their hydraulic properties, determining the distribution of potentiometric head in the aquifers, and estimating some of the components of the ground-water budget from data collected in the field. This...
Rainfall-runoff modeling and preliminary regional flood characteristics of small rural watersheds in the Arkansas River basin in Colorado
Russell K. Livingston
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 80-112
Both recorded and synthetic rainfall-runoff and annual peak-discharge data for 17 rural watersheds were analyzed to evaluate the magnitude, frequency, and volume of floods in the plains region of the Arkansas River basin in Colorado. Flood-frequency relations from analysis of recorded data were weighted or combined with flood-frequency relations from...
Low-flow characteristics of streams in the Deschutes River basin, Washington
J. E. Cummans
1981, Open-File Report 81-639
The purpose of the study was to determine the magnitude and frequency of low flows of streams in the Deschutes River basin.The streams in the basin usually have their low flows in August and September. Seven-day low flows were smallest in 1952 when annual rainfall at the Olympia airport was...
