Lithium in surface and ground waters of the conterminous United States
Barbara M. Anderson
1972, Open-File Report 72-6
The accompanying map, which shows concentrations of lithium in surface and ground caters of the conterminous United States, was compiled at the request of Helen Cannon (U.S. Geological Survey) for use at the Workshop on Geochemical Environment in Relation to Health and Disease. The workshop was held February 6-12, 1972,...
Evaluation of the streamflow-data program in Hawaii
George Yamanaga
1972, Open-File Report 72-453
Streamflow data for Hawaii are evaluated and guidelines for planning future data programs are provided. Evaluation involved (1) definition of long-term goals of the data-collection program in quantitative form, (2) examination and analysis of all available data to determine which goals have been achieved, and (3) consideration of alternative programs...

Regional draft-storage relationships for central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan
L.E. Stoimenoff
1972, Open-File Report 72-362
Regional draft-storage relationships for central and western Upper Peninsula of Michigan are presented in this report. Storage requirements for the 5- and 20-year recurrence intervals were determined using the frequency-mass curve method and daily discharge records from 15 gaging stations. The relationships will be useful in making preliminary estimates of...
Brief summary of the hydrogeology of Bangladesh
J.R. Jones
1972, Open-File Report 74-1056
The average annual precipitation in Bangladesh ranges from about 50 inches in the west-central part to about 200 inches in the northeast. Most of the rain falls during the southwest monsoon so that local precipitation is heavy at the same time flood waters of the Brahmaputra and Ganges rivers arrive....
Ground-water levels in observation wells in Oklahoma, 1969-70
R.L. Moore
1972, Open-File Report 72-463
The investigation of the ground-water resources of Oklahoma by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Oklahoma Water Resources Board includes a continuing program to collect records of water levels in selected observation wells on a systematic basis. These water-level records: (1) provide an index to available ground-water supplies;...

Model hydrographs
W. D. Mitchell
1972, Water Supply Paper 2005
Model hydrographs are composed of pairs of dimensionless ratios, arrayed in tabular form, which, when modified by the appropriate values of rainfall exceed and by the time and areal characteristics of the drainage basin, satisfactorily represent the flood hydrograph for the basin. Model bydrographs are developed from a dimensionless translation...
