Selected water-level records for western Oklahoma, 1975-1976 Selected water-level records for western Oklahoma, 1975-1976
A systematic program to collect water-level records in Oklahoma began in 1937. The objectives of this program are (1) to provide long-term records of water-level fluctuations in representative wells, (2) to facilitate the prediction of water-level trends and indicate future availability of ground-water supplies, and (3) to provide information for use in basic research. Water-level data...

Stratigraphic and hydrogeologic framework of part of the coastal plain of Texas Stratigraphic and hydrogeologic framework of part of the coastal plain of Texas
The subsurface delineation of hydrogeologic units of Miocene and younger age and stratigraphic units of Paleocene to Holocene age establishes and interrelationship of these units statewide across much of the Coastal Plain of Texas. The 11 dip sections and 1 strike section, which extend from the land surface to 7 ,600 feet below sea level, provide continuity of correlation from the...

Approximate areas of recharge to the Chicot and Evangeline aquifer systems in the Houston-Galveston area, Texas Approximate areas of recharge to the Chicot and Evangeline aquifer systems in the Houston-Galveston area, Texas
The purpose of this report is to show the general geographic areas of recharge to the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers in the Houston area, Texas (fig. 1). The areas of recharge shown on the map were determined by interpretations of subsurface hydrology, soil surveys of Harris County, and surface and subsurface geology.

Hydrologic data for Mountain Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1975 Hydrologic data for Mountain Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1975
Mountain Creek drains the northeast corner of Johnson County, the northwest corner of Ellis County, the southeast corner of Tarrant County, and part of the southwest corner of Dallas County, Tex. The basin is 30 miles long and averages 10 miles in width. The total drainage area at the mouth is 304 sq mi. Basin outflow for the 1975 water year was 146,400 acre-feet which is 68,880 acre...

Hydrologic data for Cow Bayou, Brazos River Basin, Texas, 1975 Hydrologic data for Cow Bayou, Brazos River Basin, Texas, 1975
The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the implementation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of. "The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944" and "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. The Soil Conservation Service has found a total of approximately 3,500 floodwater~retarding structures to be...

Application of a rainfall-runoff model in estimating flood peaks for selected small natural drainage basins in Texas Application of a rainfall-runoff model in estimating flood peaks for selected small natural drainage basins in Texas
A parametric rainfall-runoff simulation model was used to synthesize long-term records of annual peak discharges for small natural drainage basins in Texas. Optimum model-parameter values were determined for each of the 40 basins studied by using short-term rainfall, evaporation, and discharge data. The calibrated model was used in conjunction with long-term records of rainfall and...
