Records of water-level measurements in wells in the Oklahoma panhandle, 1971-72
Donald L. Hart Jr., George L. Hoffman, Robert L. Goemaat
1972, Open-File Report 72-464
Investigations of the ground-water resources of the Oklahoma panhandle by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water Resources Board includes collection of water-level records; the systematic collection of these records began in 1937. Records of many shallow wells were compiled in 1937 and periodic measurements were made...
Preliminary photointerpretation map of landslide and other surficial deposits of the Mount Hamilton quadrangle and parts of the Mount Boardman and San Jose quadrangles, Alameda and Santa Clara Counties, California
Tor H. Nilsen
1972, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 339
The nine San Francisco Bay region counties lie within a geologically active, young, and dynamic part of the central and northern Coast Ranges of California. Significant movements of the earth's crust are occurring here at the present time, posing numerous problems to urbanization, including some of special concern. Geological processes...
Hydrologic investigations of prairie potholes in North Dakota, 1959-68
W. S. Eisenlohr Jr., editor(s)
1972, Professional Paper 585-A
A prairie pothole is a depression in the prau1e, capable of storing water, that is the result of glacial processes. Years ago, there were many hundreds of thousands of prairie potholes in the North-Central United States, but large numbers of them have been drained for agricultural use. This report is...
Ground-water hydrology of prairie potholes in North Dakota
C. E. Sloan
1972, Professional Paper 585-C
Prairie potholes (sloughs) are water-holding depressions of glacial origin in the prairies of the Northern United States and southern Canada. Water is supplied to the potholes by precipitation on the water surface, basin runoff, and seepage inflow of ground water. Depleticn of pothole water results from evapotranspiration, overflow, and seepage...
Vegetation of prairie potholes, North Dakota, in relation to quality of water and other environmental factors
R. E. Stewart, H.A. Kantrud
1972, Professional Paper 585-D
Measurements of specific conductance provide an adequate indication of the average salinity of surface waters in natural ponds and lakes of the northern .prairie region. Yearly and seasonal variations in specific conductance were much greater in brackish and subsaline wetlands than in fresh-water areas. The principal vegetational types. Land-use practices...
Ground-water resources of Benson and Pierce Counties, north-central North Dakota
P.G. Randich
1972, Hydrologic Atlas 476
The purpose of this investigation is to provide information about the ground-water resources in Benson and Pierce Counties that is sufficient for planning the safe and intelligent development of water supplies for irrigation, domestic, stock, industrial, and municipal purposes.  The investigation is part of a statewide program to determine the...
Radiochemical analyses of surface water from U.S. Geological Survey hydrologic bench-mark stations
V.J. Janzer, L.G. Saindon
1972, Open-File Report 72-191
The U.S. Geological Survey's program for collecting and analyzing surface-water samples for radiochemical constituents at hydrologic bench-mark stations is described. Analytical methods used during the study are described briefly and data obtained from 55 of the network stations in the United States during the period from 1967 to 1971 are...
Stream depletion factors, Arkansas River valley, southeastern Colorado; A basis for evaluating plans for conjunctive use of ground and surface water
C.T. Jenkins, O.J. Taylor
1972, Open-File Report 72-192
The Arkansas River valley is a stream-aquifer system that consists of the Arkansas River and the associated valley-fill deposits. The hydrology, geology, and water-resources development in the valley have been described by Moore and Wood (1967). The history of delivery of irrigation water by canals indicates that the supply has...
Water resources of the Crow Wing River watershed, central Minnesota
Gerald F. Lindholm, E.L. Oakes, D.W. Ericson, J. O. Helgesen
1972, Hydrologic Atlas 380
The Crow Wing River, a tributary of the Mississippi River, drains an area of about 3,760 square miles, essentially all of which is covered by glacial deposits. Topography of most of the watershed is slightly- to moderately-undulating and has local relief of up to about 50 feet. The margin of the...
Reconnaissance of the Manistee River, a cold-water river in the northwestern part of Michigan's Southern Peninsula
G. E. Hendrickson, C. J. Doonan
1972, Hydrologic Atlas 436
The cold-water streams of the northern states provide unique recreational values to the American people (wilderness or semi-wilderness atmosphere, fast-water canoeing, trout fishing), but expanding recreational needs must be balanced against the growing demand of water for public and industrial supplies, irrigation, and dilution of sewage and other wastes. In...
Floods in the summer of 1971 in south-central Alaska
Robert D. Lamke
1972, Open-File Report 72-215
Floods and high water occurred throughout the summer of 1971 in south-central Alaska. Snow cover, 150 percent of average, in the mountains on May 1 caused local snowmelt floods from mid-May to mid-July. The peak discharge of 265,000 cfs (cubic feet per second) on July 15 at Copper River near...
Urban hydrology: A selected bibliography with abstracts
George L. Knapp, J.P. Glasby
1972, Water-Resources Investigations Report 72-3
This bibliography of 650 selected references on urban hydrology is intended as a source document for scientific and water-management needs. It was stimulated by increasing interest in the problems of runoff and water quality caused by increasing urbanization. The bibliography brings together abstracts with citations that pertain to the rainfall-runoff...
