Multi-event urban runoff quality model
W.M. Alley, P. E. Smith
1982, Open-File Report 82-764
A computer model is presented for simulating the quality of surface runoff from urban watersheds. The model can simulate impervious area, pervious area, and precipitation contributions to runoff quality as well as the effects of street sweeping and (or) detention storage. Within-storm variations of runoff quality are simulated for user-specified...
Distributed routing rainfall-runoff model; version II
W.M. Alley, P. E. Smith
1982, Open-File Report 82-344
A computer program of a watershed model for routing storm runoff through a branched system of pipes and (or) natural channels using rainfall as input is described. The model provides detailed simulation of storm-runoff periods selected by the user and a daily soil-moisture accounting between storms. A drainage basin is...

1982, Open-File Report 82-687
Major floods occurred in October 1977 and March 1978 in Arizona. As much as 14 inches of rain fell during October 6-9, 1977, over the mountains of southern Arizona and northern Mexico and caused the highest discharge since at least 1892 on the Santa Cruz River upstream from Tucson. The...
Catalog of available clear mylar templates used to determine latitude and longitude of sample localities between the latitudes of 51 degrees 00' and 71 degrees 30' at the scale of 1:63,360 and between the latitude of 49 degrees 00'00" north or south at the scale of 1:250,000
W. L. Campbell, George VanTrump Jr.
1982, Open-File Report 82-723
The present use of electro-mechanical plotting of sample points can give rise to location errors, particularly when map scale changes are involved, unless careful control is maintained. The following catalog of computer-generated mylar templates, with plots of latitude and longitude (longitudes equidistant north to south), sufficient to cover the latitudes...
