Water resources of the Crow Wing River watershed, central Minnesota Water resources of the Crow Wing River watershed, central Minnesota

The Crow Wing River, a tributary of the Mississippi River, drains an area of about 3,760 square miles, essentially all of which is covered by glacial deposits. Topography of most of the watershed is slightly- to moderately-undulating and has local relief of up to about 50 feet. The margin of the watershed, particularly the southwestern and northwestern parts, is higher and has local...

Summary of ground-water hydrological data in Michigan in 1970 Summary of ground-water hydrological data in Michigan in 1970

The purpose of this report is to make available the records of groundwater levels in principal aquifers of the State through 1970 and to compile other related data, such as records of ground-water pumpage, data on municipal, public and industrial water-supply facilities, and the effects of precipitation on ground-water levels. Records of water levels in areas of heavy pumpage, and in...

Influence of surface glacial deposits on streamflow characteristics Influence of surface glacial deposits on streamflow characteristics

Streamflow characteristics at gaging stations were related by multiple regression techniques to basin and climatic characteristics and equations were developed for estimating streamflow characteristics at ungaged sites. A permeability index, based on surface geology, was used in the analysis and substantially improved the standard error of estimate as compared to previous studies. Tables...
