Hydrology and geochemistry of thermal ground water in southwestern Idaho and north-central Nevada
H.W. Young, R.E. Lewis
1980, Open-File Report 80-2043
In southwestern Idaho and north-central Nevada, thermal groundwater occurs under artesian conditions in igneous or sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age. Temperatures of the groundwater range from 30 degrees to more than 80 degrees Celsius. Thermal waters are a sodium carbonate or bicarbonate type; nonthermal waters are a calcium bicarbonate. Chemical...

Hydrology comes of age: Impact of the International Hydrological Decade
R. L. Nace
1980, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (61) 1241-1241
The IHD (International Hydrological Decade), 1965 to 1974, was conceived as a concerted international effort to bring into focus the badly fragmented subdiscipline of hydrology, to evolve a global perspective on water, and to provide global information on water. Until the last decade or so, hydrology was a laggard science....

Effective and bankfull discharges of streams in the Yampa River basin, Colorado and Wyoming
E.D. Andrews
1980, Journal of Hydrology (46) 311-330
The effective discharge is defined as the increment of discharge that transports the largest fraction of the annual sediment load over a period of years. Increments of the average annual total sediment load transported by various discharges were calculated by the flow-duration, sediment-transport-curve method for 15 gaging stations in the...
