Summary of floods in the United States during 1958
E. L. Hendricks
1964, Water Supply Paper 1660-B
This report describes the most outstanding floods that occurred in the United States during 1958.A series of storms from January 23 to February 16 brought large amounts of precipitation to northern California and produced damaging floods, particularly in the Lower Sacramento Valley where losses totaled about \$12 million.Major floods, notable...
Discharge characteristics of embankment-shaped weirs
Carl E. Kindsvater
1964, Water Supply Paper 1617-A
An embankment-shaped weir is an embankment overtopped by flood waters. Among the engineering problems frequently resulting from. this occurrence is the need to compute the peak discharge from postflood yield observations. The research described in this. report was concerned with the theoretical and experimental bases for the computation procedure. The...
Geology and ground-water resources of the Bristol-Plainville-Southington area, Connecticut
A. M. La Sala
1964, Water Supply Paper 1578
The Bristol-Plainville-Southington area straddles the boundary between the New England Upland and the Connecticut Valley Lowland sections of the New England physiographic province. The western parts of Bristol are Southington lie in the New England Upland section, an area of rugged topography underlain by metamorphic rocks of Palezoic age. The...
Geology and ground water of the Luke area, Maricopa County, Arizona
Ronald S. Stulik, F. R. Twenter
1964, Water Supply Paper 1779-P
Luke Air Force Base, in the Salt River Valley in central Arizona. is within an intermontane basin--the Phoenix basin--in the Basin and Range lowlands province. The Luke area, the subject of this study, extends beyond the limits of the base. Ground-water resources of the Luke area were studied to determine...
Geology and ground-water resources of Washington, D.C., and vicinity, with a section on chemical quality of the water
Paul McKelvey Johnston, D. E. Weaver, Leonard Siu
1964, Water Supply Paper 1776
The area of this report includes 436 square miles centered about the District of Columbia. The area contains parts of two distinctly different physiographic provinces-the Piedmont and the Coastal Plain. The Fall Line, which separates the Piedmont province on the west from the Coastal Plain Province on the east, bisects...
Floods in Oklahoma: magnitude and frequency
A.O. Westfall, J.L. Patterson
1964, Open-File Report 64-170
This report presents methods by which the magnitude and frequency of expected floods for most streams in Oklahoma can be determined. Flood data were used to define flood-frequency curves applicable to the State. Composite frequency curves were drawn showing the relation of mean annual floods to floods having recurrence intervals...
Hydrology and hydrogeology of Navajo Lake, Kane County, Utah
Milton Theurer Wilson, Harold E. Thomas
1964, Professional Paper 417-C
Navajo Lake, whose entire outflow disappears underground, is on the high Markagurit Plateau where the average annual precipitation is more than 30 inches. It nestles among the headwaters of several streams that flow into arid regions where competition for municipal, industrial, and irrigation water sup- plies is very keen. Several...
Extending Darcy's concept of ground-water motion
H.E. Skibitzke
1964, Professional Paper 411-F
The tensor nature of permeability and its effect in a given ground-water flow regime have been acknowledged by various investigators. The effect on the spread of a given dissolved substance can be qualitatively discussed on the basis of the tensor characteristic of the permeability coefficient. The correlation between the dispersion...
