Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area, 1976 Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area, 1976
Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. These studies are now in progress in Austin, Dallas, Dallas County, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio.

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...

Artificial recharge for subsidence abatement at the NASA-Johnson Space Center, Phase I Artificial recharge for subsidence abatement at the NASA-Johnson Space Center, Phase I
Regional decline of aquifer head due to ground-water withdrawal in the Houston area has caused extensive land-surface subsidence. The NASA-Johnson Space Center (NASA-JSC) in southeastern Harris County, Texas, was about 13 to 19 feet above mean sea level in 1974 and sinking at a rate of more than 0.2 foot per year. NASA-JSC officials, concerned about the hurricane flooding hazard...

Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1975 Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1975
Detailed rainfall-runoff computations, including hydrographs and mass curves, are presented for nine storm periods during the 1975 water year in drainage basins in the Houston, Texas 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. (Woodard-USGS)

Technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods in Texas Technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods in Texas
Drainage area, slope, and mean annual precipitation were the only factors that were statistically significant at the 95-percent confidence level when the characteristics of the drainage basins were used as independent variables in a multiple-regression flood-frequency analysis of natural, unregulated streams in Texas. The State was divided into six regions on the basis of the...
