A network for continuous monitoring of water quality in the Sabine River basin, Texas and Louisiana A network for continuous monitoring of water quality in the Sabine River basin, Texas and Louisiana
The proposed water-quality network for the Sabine River Basin of Texas and Louisiana consists of nine monitoring stations, a central control station, a slave-central station, and a leased-line telecommunications system. This monitoring network would provide continuous transmission of water-quality data to the office of the water manager. Level I operations at a proposed site would...

Analog-model studies of the effects of recharge wells along the Houston Ship Channel on potentiometric surfaces of the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers, Houston, Texas Analog-model studies of the effects of recharge wells along the Houston Ship Channel on potentiometric surfaces of the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers, Houston, Texas
Because of increasing concern about the continuing decline of water levels in the Houston area, an electric analog model was used to determine the effects on the potentiometric surfaces resulting from recharging water through wells along the Houston Ship Channel into the two major aquifers, the Chicot and Evangeline. The model conditions simulated for this study are too complex to be...

Artificial-recharge experiments and operations on the Southern High Plains of Texas and New Mexico Artificial-recharge experiments and operations on the Southern High Plains of Texas and New Mexico
Experiments using highly turbid water from playa lakes for injection into the Ogallala Formation have resulted in greatly decreased yield of the recharge wells, Recharge of ground or surface water of good quality has indicated, however, that injection through wells is an effective method of recharging the aquifer. Water that is slightly turbid can be successfully injected for a period of...

Water-budget studies of lower Mesilla Valley and El Paso Valley, El Paso County, Texas Water-budget studies of lower Mesilla Valley and El Paso Valley, El Paso County, Texas
The total inflow of water to the lower Mesilla Valley in 1970 was 390,510 acre-feet. Of this amount, 43,300 acre-feet was consumptively used by crops and phreatophytes and 4,700 acre-feet was lost by evaporation. Ground-water storage increased by 320 acre-feet, and 360,860 acrefeet left the valley as surface- and ground-water outflow. Ground-water recharge was approximately 26,170 acre...

Water resources data for Texas, water year 1972; Part 2. Water quality records Water resources data for Texas, water year 1972; Part 2. Water quality records
Water resources data for the 1972 water year for Texas include records of data for the chemical and physical characteristics of surface water. The records were collected by the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey under the direction of I.D. Yost, district chief. These data represent that portion of the National Water Data System collected by the U.S. Geological Survey...
