In areas where surface water replaced withdrawal of ground-water, water levels in the...
Streamflow characteristics related to channel geometry of streams in western United States
E. R. Hedman, W. R. Osterkamp
1982, Water Supply Paper 2193
Assessment of surface-mining and reclamation activities generally requires extensive hydrologic data. Adequate streamflow data from instrumented gaging stations rarely are available, and estimates of surface- water discharge based on rainfall-runoff models, drainage area, and basin characteristics sometimes have proven unreliable. Channel-geometry measurements offer an alternative method of quickly and inexpensively...
Dams, reservoirs, and withdrawals for water supply; historic trends
