Periodic heat flow in a stratified medium with application to permafrost problems
Arthur H. Lachenbruch
1958, Open-File Report 58-57
Solutions to the Fourier heat equation for quasi-steady periodic flow in a stratified semi-infinite medium can be obtained readily by standard methods. The results have wide application to studies of earth-temperature variations induced by diurnal, annual, and other periodic variations in ground surface temperature. Much of the previous work on...
Rate for flood insurance
Walter Basil Langbein
1958, Open-File Report 58-60
Soon after the 1951 floods on the Kansas and lower Missouri Rivers, President Truman submitted to Congress (82d Cong., 1st sess., 1951) a proposal for a national flood insurance fund.

Luna Bergere Leopold
1958, Circular 402

Saline-water resources of North Dakota
Charles Joseph Robinove, R.H. Langford, J.W. Brookhart
1958, Water Supply Paper 1428
Natural waters in North Dakota have been arbitrarily defined in this report as saline or fresh; water containing more than 1,000 ppm (parts per million) of dissolved solids or having a specific conductance greater than 1,400 micromhos per centimeter at 25°C is considered to be saline. A large proportion of...
Preliminary report on the ground-water resources of the Klamath River basin, Oregon
Reuben Clair Newcomb, D. H. Hart
1958, Open-File Report 58-73
The Klamath River basin, including the adjacent Lost River basin, includes about 5,500 square miles of plateaus, mountain-slopes and valley plains in south-central Oregon. The valley plains range in altitude from about 4,100 feet in the south to more than 4,500 feet at the northern end; the mountain and plateau...
Hydraulic and hydrologic aspects of flood-plain planning
Sulo Werner Wiitala, Karl R. Jetter, Alan J. Sommerville
1958, Open-File Report 58-109
The valid incentives compelling occupation of the flood plain, up to and even into the stream channel, undoubtedly have contributed greatly to the development of the country. But the result has been a heritage of flood disaster, suffering, and enormous costs.Flood destruction awakened a consciousness toward reduction and elimination of...
