Effects of urbanization on flood characteristics in Nashville-Davidson County, Tennessee
Herman C. Wibben
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-121
Streamflow data from 14 basins in Davidson County, Tenn., were extended in time by use of a digital model of the hydrologic system. The basins ranged in size from 1.58 to 64.0 square miles and ranged in extent of manmade impervious cover from 3 to 37 percent. The flood-frequency characteristics...
Application of the U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff simulation model to improve flood-frequency estimates on small Tennessee streams
Herman C. Wibben
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-120
The U.S. Geological Survey rainfall-runoff simulation model was used in conjunction with National Weather Service climatological data to improve flood-frequency estimates for 52 small drainage basins in Tennessee. The basins range in size from 0.17 to 64 square miles (0.44 to 166 square kilometers) and are distributed throughout the State....
Floods in Pennsylvania: A manual for estimation of their magnitude and frequency
Herbert N. Flippo Jr.
1976, Open-File Report 76-391
Regression equations are provided for estimation of flood magnitude and frequency on unregulated and unurbanized streams in Pennsylvania. Frequency-discharge profiles are shown for regulated reaches on eleven major streams. These regression equations and discharge profiles enable the design engineer to estimate flood-frequency characteristics for almost all streams that drain more...
Geologic evaluation of waste-storage potential in selected segments of the Mesozoic aquifer system below the zone of fresh water, Atlantic Coastal Plain, North Carolina through New Jersey
Philip M. Brown, M.S. Reid
1976, Professional Paper 881
This report describes the distribution of subsurface environments in the Atlantic Coastal Plain?North Carolina through New Jersey, that are seen to have geologic potential for the storage of toxic waste. The environments described consist of layers of sand or sandstone, 20 feet or more in thickness, that are immediately overlain...
Climatic and streamflow estimates for northeastern Utah
Fred K. Fields, D. Briane Adams
1976, Open-File Report 75-673
This report shows how information from 44 air-temperature, 59 precipitation, and 86 streamflow sites was converted to a common-time base of 1941-70, and how general relations were developed to extend the converted point values to unsampled sites.Two methods, regression and ratio, were used to convert the data to a common-time...
Low-flow study of the Pike River Basin, Racine and Kenosha counties, Wisconsin
Stephen J. Field
1976, Open-File Report 75-653
The low-flow characteristics of the Pike River basin, Racine and Kenosha Counties were studied to determine the feasibility of Public Law 566 watershed-protection practices. Two seepage runs, one in October 1973, and the other in September 1974, showed that most of the low flow is combined treated-sewage and industrial cooling-water...
Variation in concentration of selected water-quality constituents in the Sacramento River at Bend Bridge, California
Linda J. Britton, R. C. Averett
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-14
During an intensive water-quality study of the Sacramento River at Bend Bridge, Calif., from September 4 to 7, 1973, differences in selected water-quality constituent concentrations were evaluated at three locations at a single site in the river for two 24-hour periods. Water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance, selected major...
