Salinity and hydrology of closed lakes
Walter Basil Langbein
1961, Professional Paper 412
Lakes without outlets, called closed lakes, are exclusively features of the arid and semiarid zones where annual evaporation exceeds rainfall. The number of closed lakes increases with aridity, so there are relatively few perennial closed lakes, but "dry" lakes that rarely contain water are numerous.Closed lakes fluctuate in level to...

The geology of the Moses Lake North quadrangle was mapped in 1954 and 1958 by the U.S. Geological Survey. Some of the basic hydrologic data has been collected by the Geological Survey during the early investigations of ground-water conditions in the Quincy Basin (Henshaw, written communication, 1917; Schwennesen and Meinzer,...

Floods in Pennsylvania, frequency and magnitude
W. F. Busch, E.C. Shaw
1961, Open-File Report 61-28
This report outlines a method of determining the magnitude of floods having frequencies up to 50 years for any stream in Pennsylvania except regulated streams and streams whose drainage basins are smaller than 10 square miles. On the main stems of the Schuylkill, Delaware, Susquehanna, and Chemung Rivers the magnitude...

Ground water in the alluvium of Beaver Creek basin, Oklahoma
D.L. Hart Jr.
1961, Open-File Report 61-59
Beaver Creek is an 857 square-mile area in south-central Oklahoma. The tributaries head at an altitude as high as 1,400 feet and the mouth of Beaver Creek is at an altitude of 804 feet. Alluvial material has been deposited along all the major streams in the basin. The alluvium contains...

1961, Open-File Report 61-65
Elk Creek basin comprises 584 square miles in Washita, Beckman, and Kiowa Counties. The basin is typical of southwestern Oklahoma with nearly level plains broken by gentle rolling hills and low escarpments, except for the extreme southern part, where seven granite and gabbroic knobs and ridges of the Wichita Mountains...
Ground water in the vicinity of Roosevelt, Oklahoma
J.R. Hollowell
1961, Open-File Report 61-67
The principal source of additional ground-water supply in the Roosevelt area of west-central Kiowa County is from alluvial deposits. Ground water can be obtained in varying amounts from the red beds of Permian age, but yields of wells are small and the water is of poor quality at most places. Roosevelt's...
