Geology and quality of water in the Modesto-Merced area, San Joaquin Valley, California, with a brief section on hydrology
R. W. Page, Gary O. Balding
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-6
The Modesto-Merced area includes about 1,800 square miles on the northeast side of the San Joaquin Valley. The physiographic units in the area are (1) Sierra Nevada, (2) dissected uplands, (3) low alluvial plains and fans, (4) river flood plains and channels, and (5) overflow lands.Geologic units consist of consolidated...
Index to water-quality data available from the U.S. Geological Survey in machine-readable form to December 31, 1972; Northeastern region
Charles R. Showen, Owen O. Williams
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-21
This report lists water quality stations operated by the U.S. Geological Survey for which data are available in machine-readable form. The data are the results of analyses of water samples and indicate the chemical and physical characteristics of surface and ground water. Samples of surface water were collected at designated...
Floods of 1971 and 1972 on Glover Creek and Little River in southeastern Oklahoma
Wilbert O. Thomas, Robert K. Corley
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-5
Heavy rains of December 9-10, 1971, and Oct. 30-31, 1972, caused outstanding floods on Glover Creek and Little River in McCurtain County in southeastern Oklahoma. This report presents hydrologic data that document the extent of flooding, flood profiles, and frequency of flooding on reaches of both streams. The data presented...
Magnitude and frequency of floods in small drainage basins in Idaho
C.A. Thomas, W. A. Harenberg, J.M. Anderson
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-7
A method is presented in this report for determining magnitude and frequency of floods on streams with drainage areas between 0.5 and 200 square miles. The method relates basin characteristics, including drainage area, percentage of forest cover, percentage of water area, latitude, and longitude, with peak flow characteristics. Regression equations...
Dewatering of the Clayton Formation during construction of the Walter F George Lock and Dam, Fort Gaines, Clay County, Georgia
J. W. Stewart
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 2-73
Walter F. George Lock and Dam, the largest manmade structure in the South, extends over 2llz miles across the flood plain of the Chattahoochee River at Fort Gaines, Clay County, in southwest Georgia and in Henry County, in southeast Alabama. The multipurpose dam consists of two rolled-filled earth dikes, a...
Evaporation from Lake Michie, North Carolina 1961-71
W.L. Yonts, G. L. Giese, E. F. Hubbard
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-38
The Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Durham, N. C., collected evaporation data at Lake Michie, Durham's 480-acre water-supply reservoir, for 10 consecutive years from September 1961 to September 1971. Wind speed, air temperature, and water temperature-collected continuously-were used in conjunction with water-budget data to calibrate the semi-empirical...
Availability of water from limestone and dolomite aquifers in southwest Ohio and the relation of water quality to the regional flow system
Stanley Eugene Norris, Richard E. Fidler
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-17
The largest ground-water supplies from the 150 to 450-foot thick carbonate-rock aquifer in southwest Ohio are available in a 2,800 squaremile area on the crest and eastern flank of the Cincinnati arch. Well production in the high-yield area is mainly from the Newburg zone, a permeable stratum in the lower...
Sediment transport by streams in the Upper Columbia River Basin, Washington, May 1969-June 1971
Leonard M. Nelson
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-39
This report presents the results of a reconnaissance evaluation of the fluvial-sediment transport by streams in the 28,000-square-mile upper Columbia River basin in eastern Washington. The basin ranges in altitude from about 340 to 9,000 feet, and receives annual precipitation ranging from more than 150 inches in the mountains to less...
Index to water-quality data available from the U.S. Geological Survey in machine-readable form to December 31, 1972: Southeastern Region
Charles R. Showen, Owen O. Williams
1973, Water-Resources Investigations Report 73-22
This report lists water quality stations operated by the Geological Survey for what data are available in machine-readable form. The data are the results of analyses of water samples and indicate the chemical and physical characteristics of surface and ground water. The stations are listed according to station number within each State. The water...
