Low-flow characteristics of Kentucky streams, 1980
John N. Sullavan
1980, Open-File Report 80-1225
The low-flow characteristics, including the 7-day 2-year and the 7-day 10-year low flows, were determined at 127 stations in Kentucky. The log-Pearson type III distribution was used to fit the field data, from which low-flow frequencies were obtained. An additional 127 sites are active throughout the State. (USGS)...

Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1978
J.S. Hutchison, J. F. Weigel
1980, Open-File Report 80-1184
This report contains rainfall and runoff data collected during the 1978 water year for drainage basins in the Houston, Tex., metropolitan area. The information will be useful in determining the extent to which progressive urbanization will affect the yield and mode of occurrence of storm runoff. Rainfall-runoff computations are presented...
Measurements of discharge, gain or loss in flow, and chemical quality of the Poplar and Redwater Rivers, northeastern Montana, October 24-25, 1979
Kent A. Dodge, Gary W. Levings
1980, Open-File Report 80-1210
Discharge, specific conductance, and water temperature were measured at 37 sites on the Poplar and Redwater Rivers in northeastern Montana on October 24-25, 1979, to provide data on the interaction between surface-water and groundwater systems. Streamflow gains or losses were computed for those stream reaches not significantly affected by irrigation....
