Water resources of the Snake River watershed, east-central Minnesota Water resources of the Snake River watershed, east-central Minnesota
Glacial drift overlies sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks in the Snake River watershed. The Snake River, which drains an area of about 1,030 square miles, originates in an extensive area of peat bogs in the northern part of the watershed. It flows southward across gently rolling glacial terrain in which the major relief is near the river. Near the southern boundary of the...

Water resources of the Lower Minnesota River Watershed, south-central Minnesota Water resources of the Lower Minnesota River Watershed, south-central Minnesota
The lower Minnesota River watershed, an area of 2,005 square miles, is fairly flat west of the Minnesota River, but rises to a hilly ridge along the east side of the watershed. Most of the area is covered by ground moraine cut deeply by the Minnesota River and less deeply by its tributaries. Surface drainage is toward the Minnesota River at the northeast corner of the watershed. The...

Water resources data for Michigan, water year 1974; Part 2, Water quality records Water resources data for Michigan, water year 1974; Part 2, Water quality records
Water resources data for the 1974 water year for Michigan include records of data for the chemical and physical characteristics of surface and ground waters. Data on the quality of surface water (chemical, temperature, and sediment) were collected from designated sampling sites at predetermined intervals such as once-daily, weekly, monthly or less frequently, and at some sites data were...

Water resources of the Cannon River watershed, southeastern Minnesota Water resources of the Cannon River watershed, southeastern Minnesota
The 1,462 square miles of land surface in the Cannon River watershed varies considerably from areas of low hills and plains to areas dominated by streams deeply incised into bedrock. Much of the south-central part of the area consists of a till plain that ranges in altitude from 1,100 to 1,200 feet above mean sea level. This plain is bordered by end moraines that form ridges on the east...

Reconnaissance of the upper Au Sable River a cold-water river in the north-central part of Michigan's southern peninsula Reconnaissance of the upper Au Sable River a cold-water river in the north-central part of Michigan's southern peninsula
The Au Sable River is one of Michigan’s most popular trout streams and canoe trails. Its riverside campgrounds are enjoyed by thousands of campers each year, and many cabins and homes have been built on its banks. At present, interests of the different recreationists – fishermen, canoers, campers, and riverside property owners – conflict. The conflict results from the face that the...

Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at sewage-treatment plants Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at sewage-treatment plants
Low-flow characteristics of Wisconsin streams at 415 sewage -treatment plants are presented in this report. The low-flow characteristics presented are the annual minimum 7-day mean flow that occurs on the average of once in 2 years (Q7, 2) and the annual minimum 7 -day mean flow that occurs on the average of once in 10 years (Q7, 10). The low-flow characteristics at most sewage-treatment...
