Ground-water levels in observation wells in Oklahoma, 1975
Robert L. Goemaat
1977, Open-File Report 77-238
The objectives of the observation-well program are (1) to provide long-term records of water-level fluctuations in representative wells, (2) to facilitate the prediction of water-level trends and indicate the future availability of ground-water supplies, and (3) to provide information for use in basic research. These selected records serve as a...

Hydrologic changes after logging in two small Oregon coastal watersheds
David Dell Harris
1977, Water Supply Paper 2037
Effects of clearcut, cable logging on the hydrologic characteristics of a small coastal stream in Oregon indicate an average 181-percent increase in sediment yield over a 7-year postlogging period. Annual runoff and high-flow volumes increased 19 and 1.1 inches (480 and 28 mm), respectively, after logging in the watershed. Clearcutting...
Artificial recharge for subsidence abatement at the NASA-Johnson Space Center, Phase I
Sergio Garza
1977, Open-File Report 77-219
Regional decline of aquifer head due to ground-water withdrawal in the Houston area has caused extensive land-surface subsidence. The NASA-Johnson Space Center (NASA-JSC) in southeastern Harris County, Texas, was about 13 to 19 feet above mean sea level in 1974 and sinking at a rate of more than 0.2 foot...
Quality of rivers of the United States, 1975 water year; based on the National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN)
John C. Briggs, John F. Ficke
1977, Open-File Report 78-200
The National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) was established by the U.S. Geological Survey to provide a nationally uniform basis for continuously assessing the quality of U.S. rivers. Stations generally are at the downstream end of hydrologic accounting units in order to measure the quantity and quality of water flowing...
Technique for estimating depth of 100-year floods in Tennessee
Charles R. Gamble, James G. Lewis
1977, Open-File Report 77-668
Preface: A method is presented for estimating the depth of the loo-year flood in four hydrologic areas in Tennessee. Depths at 151 gaging stations on streams that were not significantly affected by man made changes were related to basin characteristics by multiple regression techniques. Equations derived from the analysis can...

1977, Open-File Report 76-724
This report contains the rainfall, runoff, and storage data collected during the 1975 water year for the 21.6-square-mile area above the stream-gaging station North Creek near Jacksboro, Texas. The weighted-mean rainfall in the study area during the water year was 39.01 inches, which is greater than the 18-year average of...
Leachate plumes in ground water from Babylon and Islip landfills, Long Island, New York
Grant E. Kimmel, Olin C. Braids
1977, Open-File Report 77-583
Landfills operated by the towns of Babylon and Islip in southwest and central Suffolk County, N.Y., contain urban refuse , incinerated garbage, and scavenger (cesspool) waste; some industrial refuse is deposited at the Babylon site. The Islip landfill was started in 1933, the Babylon landfill in 1947. The landfills are...
Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1975
C.E. Ranzau
1977, Open-File Report 77-274
Detailed rainfall-runoff computations, including hydrographs and mass curves, are presented for nine storm periods during the 1975 water year in drainage basins in the Houston, Texas metropolitan area. The information will be useful in determining the extent to which progressive urbanization will affect the yield and mode of occurrence of...
Quantity and quality of drainage from the Argo Tunnel and other sources related to metal mining in Gilpin, Clear Creek and Park Counties, Colorado
Dennis A. Wentz
1977, Open-File Report 77-734
Eighteen metal-mine drainage sources have been located in that part of Gilpin, Clear Creek, and Park Counties, Colo., lying within the Missouri River basin. At least 13 of these sources are known to contain high acidity and (or) trace-element concentrations or to contribute water to adversely affected streams. From January...
