Constant-head pumping test of a multiaquifer well to determine characteristics of individual aquifers
Gordon D. Bennett, E.P. Patten
1962, Water Supply Paper 1536-G
This report describes the theory and field procedures for determining the transmissibility and storage coefficients and the original hydrostatic head of each aquifer penetrated by a multiaquifer well. The procedure involves pumping the well in such a manner that the drawdown of water level is constant while the discharges of...
Theory of aquifer tests
J.G. Ferris, D.B. Knowles, R. H. Brown, R.H. Stallman
1962, Water Supply Paper 1536-E
The development of water supplies from wells was placed on a rational basis with Darcy's development of the law governing the movement of fluids through sands and with Dupuit's application of that law to the problem of radial flow toward a pumped well. As field experience increased, confidence in the...

Salinity of the Delaware Estuary
Bernard Cohen, Leo T. McCarthy Jr.
1962, Water Supply Paper 1586-B
The purpose of this investigation was to obtain data on and study the factors affecting the salinity of the Delaware River from Philadelphia, Pa., to the Appoquinimink River, Del. The general chemical quality of water in the estuary is described, including changes in salinity in the river cross section and...

Water-supply possibilities at Capitol Reef National Monument, Utah
I. Wendell Marine
1962, Water Supply Paper 1475-G
A water supply of 50 gpm (gallons per minute) is estimated to be sufficient to supply the present and future water demand at the monument. The Coconino sandstone of Permian age seems to be capable of yielding this quantity to a well between 1,500 and 2,700 feet deep in the...
Ground water in the Wupatki and Sunset Crater National Monuments, Coconino County, Arizona
Oliver J. Cosner
1962, Water Supply Paper 1475-J
The Wupatki and Sunset Crater National Monuments are 15 and 30 miles, respectively, northeast of Flagstaff on the San Francisco Plateau. They are in the eastern part of the San Francisco volcanic field and on the southwest flank of the Black Mesa basin. The Supai formation, Coconino sandstone, Kaibab limestone,...
Effect of reservoir storage on peak flow
William D. Mitchell
1962, Water Supply Paper 1580-C
For observation of small-basin flood peaks, numerous crest-stage gages now are operated at culverts in roadway embankments. To the extent that they obstruct the natural flood plains of the streams, these embankments serve to create detention reservoirs, and thus to reduce the magnitude of observed peak flows. Hence, it is...

A practical field technique for measuring reservoir evaporation utilizing mass-transfer theory
G. E. Harbeck Jr.
1962, Professional Paper 272-E
Studies of evaporation made in recent years nave provided values of the mass-transfer coefficient, N, in the equation E=Nut(e0—ea) for reservoirs having surface areas ranging from 1 to nearly 30,000 acres. The apparent correlation of N with reservoir surface area may in large part be associated with variations in the...

Study of natural glasses through their behavior as membrane electrodes, Part 2
Alfred Hemingway Truesdell
1962, Open-File Report 62-136
The exchange constants and regular solution constants for a number of exchange reactions involving analyzed natural and simulated natural glasses have been determined. The experimental method used provides quick and simple determination of these constants. The calculation of the internal energy differences of model ion exchange systems involving alkali and...
