Hydrology of the Albemarle-Pamlico region, North Carolina : A preliminary report on the impact of agricultural developments
Ralph C. Heath
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-9
Extensive agricultural land clearing and drainage operations underway in a 650 square mile part of the Albemarle-Pamlico region--a 1,634 square mile peninsula in North Carolina lying between Albemarle Sound on the North and the Pamlico River on the south--are changing the hydrology of the area. The artificial drainage system being constructed...
Hydrology of the Lake Wingra basin, Dane County, Wisconsin
Edward L. Oakes, G. E. Hendrickson, E.E. Zuehls
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-17
A water budget was prepared to identify the components of the hydrologic system in the Lake Wingra basin. The Lake Wingra basin, which includes a small eutrophic lake within the city of Madison, Wis., is partly a protected area and partly an urbanized area. Measured and estimated inflow and outflow...
Evaluation of recharge potential near Indio, California
Joe A. Moreland
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 74-33
The U.S. Geological Survey evaluated the feasibility of utilizing 8,000 acre-feet (9.9 cubic hectometres) of sewage effluent per year to recharge the ground water in a 25-square mile (65-square kilometre) area northwest of Indio, Calif. The depth to water in the area studied ranged from about 50 feet (15 metres)...
Chemical and biological quality of water in part of the Everglades, southeastern Florida
Bradley G. Waller, James E. Earle
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-56
A comprehensive monitoring network was established in a part of the Everglades to evaluate the quality of water being delivered to Everglades National Park. Physical, chemical, and biological parameters were determined in surface water, bottom sediment, and bulk precipitation (rainfall and dry fallout).The geology of the area, bottom sediment, bulk...
Optimizing information transfer in a stream-gaging network
Philip Hadley Carrigan Jr., Harold G. Golden
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-30
Networks of small stream (drainage area less than 50 square miles or 130 square kilometres) flood gages have been operated throughout the country for a number of years to supplement flood information already available for large streams. The goal in operating these networks has been to obtain sufficient data for...
Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources – Upper Mississippi region
R. M. Bloyd
1975, Professional Paper 813-B
The Upper Mississippi Region in general is rich in water-surface water is plentiful, and ground water is a large, important, and manageable resource. Total potable water in storage in the outwash and alluvial aquifers of the Mississippi River valley and the subbasins is about 45,000 billion gallons. This is about...
Plan of study of the hydrology of the Madison Limestone and associated rocks in Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1975, Open-File Report 75-631
A major part of the United States ' coal reserves is in the Fort Union coal region of the Northern Great Plains. Large-scale development of these reserves would place a heavy demand on the area 's limited water resources. Surface water is poorly distributed in time and space. Its use...
Hydrologic evaluation of the Haystack Butte area : with emphasis on possible discharge of class-I wastes, Edwards Air Force Base, California
Jerry L. Hughes
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-7
The discharge of 3 acre-feet (4 x 10-3 cubic hectometres) per year of Class-I wastes in the Haystack Butte area of Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., has been proposed by the Air Force. Evaporation in this arid basin exceeds the 4 inches (100 millimetres) of annual precipitation. Fifteen test holes,...
Satellite relay and processing of hydrologic data in south Florida
E.T. Wimberly
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-12
Management of water in south Florida requires current hydrologic data on water levels and rainfall. This need is being met by a data processing system which provides near-real-time data from remote areas. The flow of data is from data-collection platforms at field sites via LANDSAT-1 satellite to the National Aeronautics...
Bibliography of United States Geological Survey reports on the geology and water resources of Texas, 1887-1974
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-20
Water-resources investigations in Texas consist of the collection of basic records through the hydrologic-data network, interpretive studies, and research projects. An office was established in Austin, Texas, in 1915 for surface-water studies, for ground-water studies in 1929, and water-quality studies in 1937. Previous investigations of the water resources of Texas...
Drainage areas for Illinois streams
Kent M. Ogata
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-13
Drainage areas were tabulated for all streams in Illinois which drain over 100 square miles. at sites where streamflow data have been collected, and at other selected locations. Areas were planimetered on U.S. Geological Survey topographic quadrangle maps and balanced to known areas taken from Smithsonian Geographical Tables of areas of quadrilaterals of...
Water and the South Florida environment
Howard Klein, J.T. Armbruster, B. F. McPherson, H.J. Freiberger
1975, Water-Resources Investigations Report 75-24
Ecological problems are a major concern to Florida as well as to the Nation. National attention was focused on these problems in September 1968, when the Port Authority of Dade County began to con-struct a jetport for supersonic aircraft on a 39-square-mile tract 6 miles north of Everglades National Park...
New tritium data on movement of groundwater in western Fresno County, California
Joseph Fairfield Poland, Gordon L. Stewart
1975, Water Resources Research (11) 716-724
Well waters along two traverse lines were sampled in 1963 and tested for tritium concentration. Haskell et al. [1966] estimated from the apparent thermonuclear tritium concentrations that groundwater had moved westward in the lower water‐bearing zone at a maximum velocity of 14–16.5 mi (23–27 km) in 9 yr. The maximum velocities...
Channel erosion surveys along TAPS route, Alaska, 1974
Joseph Childers, Stanley H. Jones
1975, Report
Repeated site surveys and aerial photographs at 26 stream crossings along the trans-Alaska pipeline system (TAPS) route during the period 1969-74 provide chronologie records of channel changes that predate pipeline-related construction at the sites. The 1974 surveys and photographs show some of the channel changes wrought by construction of the...
