Techniques and equipment required for precise stream gaging in tide-affected fresh-water reaches of the Sacramento River, California
Winchell Smith
1971, Water Supply Paper 1869-G
Current-meter measurements of high accuracy will be required for calibration of an acoustic flow-metering system proposed for installation in the Sacramento River at Chipps Island in California. This report presents an analysis of the problem of making continuous accurate current-meter measurements in this channel where the flow regime is changing...
Summary of data on chemical quality of streams of North Carolina, 1943-67
Hugh B. Wilder, Larry J. Slack
1971, Water Supply Paper 1895-B
This report summarizes water-quality data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the State of North Carolina during the period 1943-67. Maximum, minimum, and average values are shown for complete analyses of mineral constituents dissolved in water from 177 locations at which samples were collected daily or monthly...
Ground water for irrigation near Lake Emily, Pope County, west-central Minnesota
Wayne A. Van Voast
1971, Water Supply Paper 1899-J
In the Lake Emily area, thickness of the glacial drift ranges from about 200 feet to more than 400 feet. Within the drift are sand and gravel aquifers, some of which can yield adequate water supplies for irrigation. Outwash, as much as 60 feet thick, lies at the surface. The...
Ground water for irrigation in the Brooten-Belgrade area, west-central Minnesota
Wayne A. Van Voast
1971, Water Supply Paper 1899-E
Water for irrigation is needed to improve crop yields from sandy soils in the Brooten-Belgrade area. Ground-water supplies of sufficient quantity and suitable quality for irrigation are available in much of the area. Quaternary glacial drift, as much as 300 feet thick, is underlain by Precambrian crystalline rocks and possibly by...
Summary of floods in the United States during 1966
J.O. Rostvedt
1971, Water Supply Paper 1870-D
This report describes the outstanding floods in the United States during 1966. The four most destructive floods occurred during March-April in the Red River of the North basin in northwestern Minnesota, during April-May in northeastern Texas, in August, in east-central Nebraska, and in December, in the Southwestern United States. For...
Summary of data on temperature of streams in North Carolina, 1943-67
Thomas H. Woodard
1971, Water Supply Paper 1895-A
This report summarizes stream-temperature data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the State of North Carolina during the period 1943-67. Listed in two tables are summary values determined from records from 176 locations throughout the State. Of the 850 station years of record, 31 percent is monthly...
Relation of drainage problems to high ground-water levels, Coconut Grove area, Oahu, Hawaii
L.A. Swain, C.J. Huxel Jr.
1971, Open-File Report 72-365
Purpose and Scope In 1969, hydrologic data-collection sites were established in and around the Coconut Grove area for the purpose of measuring directly the relationship between rainfall, runoff, ground-water levels, the level of water in Kawainui Swamp and the canals, and tidal fluctuations. The primary objective was to identify the causes...
Ground-water reconnaissance of selected sites in Rocky Mountain National Park and Shadow Mountain National Recreation area, Colorado
F.A. Welder
1971, Open-File Report 71-320
An evaluation of the ground-water supply potential at 30 sites within the Rocky Mountain National Park and Shadow Mountain National Recreation Area was made by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1967 and 1968. The work consisted of a geohydrologic reconnaissance, well inventory, and test drilling. The study sites are underlain...
Subsurface waste disposal by means of wells - A selective annotated bibliography
Donald Robert Rima, Edith B. Chase, Beverly M. Myers
1971, Water Supply Paper 2020
Subsurface waste disposal by means of wells is the practice of using drilled wells to inject unwanted substances into underground rock formations. The use of wells for this purpose is not a new idea. As long ago as the end of the last century, it was common practice to drill...
Water temperatures of California streams, San Francisco Bay subregion
J. C. Blodgett
1971, Open-File Report 71-48
A summary of water-temperature records is presented for data collected through September 1968 in the San Francisco Bay Subregion of California. This report is one of a series covering the 11 hydrologic subregions of the State and includes data for 87 stream sites. Water temperatures, in degrees Celsius, are summarized...
Estimating magnitude and frequency of floods in Wisconsin
Duane H. Conger
1971, Open-File Report 71-76
This report provides methods for estimating flood characteristics at most sites where flood information may be needed for planning and design and summatizes the significant flood data and related information available on Wisconsin streams. Individual equations are presented for estimating flood discharges for selected recurrence intervals up to a 25-year...
