Mean annual runoff in the upper Ohio River basin, 1941-70, and its historical variation
Robert M. Beall
1978, Water Supply Paper 2042
A map of the Ohio River basin above the Muskingum River shows patterns of mean annual runoff for the new climatologic and hydrologic reference period, 1941-70, and provides an up-to-date, consistent basis for consideration of this streamflow characteristic. The primary data base consisted of 98 long-term gaging-station records collected within...
A theoretical basis for exploration for native copper in northern Wisconsin
Walter S. White
1978, Circular 769
Exploration for native copper in the Keweenawan lavas of northern Wisconsin has been concentrated in areas of relatively shallow overburden that have sparse to numerous outcrops. Lack of success of this exploration suggests that if large deposits, comparable to those of northern Michigan, are present, they are more likely to...
Hydrologic data for urban storm runoff from three localities in the Denver metropolitan area, Colorado
Sherman R. Ellis
1978, Open-File Report 78-410
Urban storm-runoff data, collected from 1975 to 1977, on three catchment areas in the Denver, Colo., metropolitan area are presented. The catchment are predominantly a single-family residential catchment area in Littleton, a multifamily residential and commercial catchment area in Lakewood, and a high-density residential and commercial catchment area in Denver....
Hydrologic overlay maps of the Titusville SW Quadrangle, Brevard County, Florida
James M. Frazee Jr., Charles P. Laughlin
1978, Open-File Report 78-190
Brevard County is an area of some 1,300 square miles located on the east coast of central Florida. The Titusville SW Quadrangle, in northern Brevard, includes part of the St. Johns River channel and valley with extensive areas of relatively low marshlands. Approximately one half of the quadrangle area lies...
Drainage areas of surface water bodies of the Saco River basin in southwestern Maine
Derrill J. Cowing, Douglas Caracappa
1978, Open-File Report 78-556-B
The report contains drainage area value for: lakes and ponds included in the Maine Informational Display Analysis System (MIDAS) File 906-Z, streams that drain an area greater than 25 mil2, dams, and hydrologic data collection sites. Supplemental information in the report includes State and Federal location systems used to identify...
Historical profile, Quality of Water Laboratories, U. S. Geological Survey
W. H. Durum
1978, Open-File Report 78-432
During the period 1918 to 1973 the U.S. Geological Survey, Water Resources Division, established 22 District-type water quality laboratories. These facilities provided the analytical capability and water-quality information for hydrologic investigations and the national baseline inventory of chemical, physical, fluvial sediment, and biological characteristics of surface and ground waters in...
Hydrologic data for the Antlers aquifer, southeastern Oklahoma
Robert E. Davis, Donald L. Hart Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-1038
The U.S. Geological Survey has collected data on Oklahoma's ground-water resources since 1934. Most of these data were collected as part of specific ground-water studies conducted in cooperation with various Federal, State, and local agencies.The information in this report was obtained in the field, from published reports (Davis, 1960, Hart,...
Limnology of Laguna Tortuguero, Puerto Rico
Ferdinand Quinones-Marquez, Luis A. Fuste
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-122
The principal chemical, physical and biological characteristics, and the hydrology of Laguna Tortuguero, Puerto Rico, were studied from 1974-75. The lagoon, with an area of 2.24 square kilometers and a volume of about 2.68 million cubic meters, contains about 5 percent of seawater. Drainage through a canal on the north...
Progress toward a ground-water-quality monitoring network for Idaho
R.L. Whitehead
1978, Open-File Report 78-786
A ground-water-quality monitoring network is being designed for Idaho. The primary objectives of the network are to (1) determine the present quality of the State's ground water, (2) provide continual monitoring of groundwater quality for water-management purposes, and (3) serve as a warning system of undesirable changes in ground-water quality. Data...
Effects of land use and water management on water quality in the western South New River Canal basin: southeast Florida, 1974-75
B.G. Waller
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-30
The South New River Canal (C-11) basin between water-control structures S-9 and S-13 is an area that is primarily undeveloped and the system of waterways within the basin is highly controlled for water-management purposes. Most of the recharge to the canals is by induced ground-water inflow and seepage. The chemical...
Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources – Great Lakes region
William G. Weist Jr.
1978, Professional Paper 813-J
The Great Lakes Regions, as a whole, has abundant supplies of water. Nearly 805,000 billion cubic feet of water is contained in the Great Lakes. An additional 35,000 billion cubic feet of potable ground water is available from storage in the region. Estimated ground-water discharge to the streams and lakes...
The hydrology of Lake Rousseau, west-central Florida
E. R. German
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-126
Lake Rousseau, about 4 miles southwest of Inglis, Florida, was formed in 1909 by impoundment of the Withlacooche River by Inglis Dam, west of Dunnellon, Florida. The lake was to have been part of the Cross-Florida Barge Canal; a lock and channel associated with the presently inactive project were completed...
Geohydrology of the northern Louisiana salt-dome basin pertinent to the storage of radioactive wastes; a progress report
R.L. Hosman
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-104
Salt domes in northern Louisiana are being considered as possible storage sites for nuclear wastes. The domes are in an area that received regional sedimentation through early Tertiary (Eocene) time with lesser amounts of Quaternary deposits. The Cretaceous-Tertiary accumulation is a few thousand feet thick; the major sands are regional...
Summary of hydrologic data collected during 1976 in Dade County, Florida
John E. Hull
1978, Open-File Report 78-883
During 1976 rainfall was 1.58 inches below the long-term average. Ground-water levels ranged from 0.4 foot above to 0.5 foot below average. The highest and lowest ground water for the year were both 1 foot below their long-term averages. In the Hialeah-Miami Springs area, water levels in wells near the...
