Hydrologic evaluation of Ashley Valley, northern Uinta basin area, Utah
James W. Hood
1977, Technical Publication 54
The water resources of the northern Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado, were studied during 1971-74. Ashley Valley was evaluated in slightly greater detail than the general area, in order to assess the general relation of ground- and surface-water supplies. In Ashley Valley , the principal source of both irrigation supply and ground-water...

Simulation of flow from an aquifer to a partially penetrating trench
Stanley A. Leake
1977, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (5) 535-540
Construction of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway in northeast Mississippi will involve dewatering as much as 46 m of an unconfined aquifer near the Tennessee Valley divide. Dewatering by trenching is one of the proposed methods. Methods of calculating effects of dewatering by trenching have been heretofore limited to situations where ideal...
Hydrologic considerations associated with dredging spring ponds in Wisconsin
William J. Rose
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-18
Spring ponds (small spring-fed bodies of water) are natural features of some glaciated areas and have a continuous flow of ground water entering through their bottoms and exiting through surface outlets. Dredging has been used to restore ponds that have been filled in part or totally by sediment. The purpose of...
Ground-water resources of Chester County, Pennsylvania

1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-67
Fifty gallons per minute (3 liters per second) or more may be obtained from wells in almost all parts of the county, but not at all locations. Adequate exploration to find fracture or solution openings is required. Five hundred gallons per minute (30 liters per second) or more may be...
Ground-water hydrology of the Lower Milliken-Sarco-Tulucay Creeks area, Napa County, California
Michael J. Johnson
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-82
The Sonoma Volcanics are the principal water-bearing materials in the lower Milliken-Sarco-Tulucay Creeks area, which occupies about 15 square miles (39 square kilometers) in and east of Napa, Calif. The distribution and composition of these volcanic units are highly variable and complex. Within the Sonoma Volcanics the tuffs constitute the...
Approximate areas of recharge to the Chicot and Evangeline aquifer systems in the Houston-Galveston area, Texas
R.K. Gabrysch
1977, Open-File Report 77-754
The purpose of this report is to show the general geographic areas of recharge to the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers in the Houston area, Texas (fig. 1). The areas of recharge shown on the map were determined by interpretations of subsurface hydrology, soil surveys of Harris County, and surface and...
Combined Ice and Water Balances of Maclure Glacier, California, South Cascade Glacier, Washington, and Wolverine and Gulkana Glaciers, Alaska, 1967 Hydrologic Year
Wendell V. Tangborn, Lawrence R. Mayo, David R. Scully, Robert M. Krimmel
1977, Professional Paper 715-B
Combined ice and water balances were measured in the 1967 hydrologic year (October 1-September 30) on four glaciers in western North America ranging in latitude from 37 deg to 63 deg N. This hydrologic year was characterized by heavier than normal winter precipitation in California and Washington and abnormally dry...

Hydrology of the Creeping Swamp Watershed, North Carolina with reference to potential effects of stream channelization
M.D. Winner, C.E. Simmons
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-26
Hydrologic data were collected for four years at six sites in the Creeping Swamp watershed in eastern North Carolina in a preliminary effort to study the effects of stream channelization on the hydrology of a small watershed. A water-budget evaluation for pre-channelized conditions showed that runoff accounts for about 17...
Hydrologic data of the coastal drainage basins of southeastern Massachusetts, Plymouth to Weweantic River, Wareham
John R. Williams, Gary D. Tasker, Richard E. Willey
1977, Open-File Report 77-186
The principal basins in this study in southeastern Massachusetts are those of Town Brook, Eel River, and Beaverdam Brook, all draining to Cape Cod Bay; Herring Brook draining to the Cape Cod Canal; and Red Brook, Agawam River, Wankinco River, and Weweantic River, all draining to Buzzards Bay. This report...

Ground-water data for Michigan, 1976
G.C. Huffman
1977, Open-File Report 77-782
The purpose of this report is to make available the records of water levels in principal aquifers of the State through 1976 and to compile related data, such as records of ground-water pumpage. Also included in the report are data on municipal, public, and industrial water-supply facilities. Records of water...
Small-stream flood investigations in Minnesota: October 1958 to September 1975
Lowell C. Guetzkow, Kurt T. Gunard
1977, Open-File Report 77-39
An investigation of flood flows from small drainage basins in Minnesota was initiated to aid in the design of bridges, culverts and other highway drainage structures. The program provides peak flow data on streams having drainage areas generally less than 50 square miles, placing particular emphasis on those less than...
