Effect of reforestation on streamflow in central New York
William Joseph Schneider, Gordon Roundy Ayer
1961, Water Supply Paper 1602
Hydrologic data have been collected since 1932 in central New York State to determine the effect of reforestation on streamflow. Data are available for three small partly reforested areas and for one nonreforested control area. From 35 to 58 percent of the 3 areas were reforested, mostly with species of...
Recharging ground-water reservoirs
George H. Taylor
1961, Open-File Report 60-139
Successful artificial recharge of a ground-water reservoir depends upon many factors. Some factors are very complicated and technical. This paper will deal briefly with some of them. For a more comprehensive description of ground-water reservoirs and their artificial recharge, the publications listed at the end of this paper should be...
Aquifers in melt-water channels along the southwest flank of the Des Moines Lobe, Lyon County, Minnesota
Robert Schneider, Harry G. Rodis
1961, Water Supply Paper 1539-F
During the Gary and Mankato substages of Wisconsin glaciation the Des Moines lobe advanced southeastward through the broad lowland of the Minnesota River valley of southwestern Minnesota, and thence southward to central Iowa. Among the most prominent topographic features in Lyon County, Minn., are five southeastward-trending end moraines, two of which...
Availability of ground water in the Gallup area, New Mexico
Samuel Wilson West
1961, Circular 443
A thick succession of sedimentary rocks (about 6,000 feet) underlies the town of Gallup and crops out nearby. Although all the sedimentary rocks are capable of yielding some water, only a few units of sandstone and limestone yield water in sufficient quantity and of acceptable quality to be considered as...
A Simple Method for Determining Specific Yield from Pumping Tests
L.E. Ramsahoye, Solomon Max Lang
1961, Water Supply Paper 1536-C
A simpler solution which greatly reduces the time necessary to compute the specific yield by the pumping-test method of Remson and Lang (1955) is presented. The method consists of computing the volume of dewatered material in the cone of depression and comparing it with the total volume of discharged water....
Floods of February-March 1961 in the southeastern states
Harry Hawthorne Barnes, William Philip Somers
1961, Circular 452
Widespread, prolonged, disastrous floods struck parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida following heavy rains Feb. 17-26, 1961. Three distinct low-pressure systems recurred in essentially the same area. Precipitation totaled more than 18 inches in some areas. Multiple floods of small streams became superimposed in the large rivers to...
Potential water power of Lake Chakachamna, Alaska
Bruce Lawellin Jackson
1961, Open-File Report 61-74
Lake Chakachamna, in view of its area, altitude, and location on a region of high precipitation and runoff, has a large potential power value. The outflow from the lake, based on limited streamflow records varies from less than 60 cfs to well over 15,000 cfs, with an annual flow in...
