Technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods in the Houston, Texas, Metropolitan Area Technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods in the Houston, Texas, Metropolitan Area
A technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area was developed by use of a multiple-regression flood-frequency analysis of flow data from unregulated streams in the area. A regression model, relating flood-peak discharge to concurrent rainfall and antecedent soil moisture conditions, was used to simulate 67-year records of annual...

Appraisal of potential for injection-well recharge of the Hueco bolson with treated sewage effluent : preliminary study at the northeast El Paso area, Texas Appraisal of potential for injection-well recharge of the Hueco bolson with treated sewage effluent : preliminary study at the northeast El Paso area, Texas
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the City of El Paso and the Texas Department of Water Resources, made a preliminary study of specific factors related to recharging the Hueco bolson in the northeast El Paso area with treated sewage effluent. The city is interested in the location and spacing of injection wells relative to (1) maintaining the injected effluent in the...

Physical environment and hydrologic characteristics of coal-mining areas in Missouri Physical environment and hydrologic characteristics of coal-mining areas in Missouri
Hydrologic information for the north-central and western coal-mining regions of Missouri is needed to define the hydrologic system in these areas of major historic and planned coal development. This report describes the physical setting, climate, coal-mining practices, general hydrologic system, and the current (1980) hydrologie data base in these two coal-mining regions. Streamflow in...

Hydrology of the Chicod Creek basin, North Carolina, prior to channel improvements Hydrology of the Chicod Creek basin, North Carolina, prior to channel improvements
Extensive modification and excavation of stream channels in the 6-square mile Chicod Creek basin began in mid-1979 to reduce flooding and improve stream runoff conditions. The effects of channel improvements on this Coastal Pain basin 's hydrology will be determined from data collected prior to, during, and for several years following channel alternations. This report summarizes the...

Water resources data for Georgia, water year 1980 Water resources data for Georgia, water year 1980
Water resources data for the 1980 water year for Georgia consists of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; and ground-water levels. This report contains discharge records for 105 gaging stations; stage for 9 gaging stations; stage and contents for 17 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 22 continuous stations, 129...

Iowa observation well network; past, present, and future Iowa observation well network; past, present, and future
Water-level measurements in wells were started by the USGS in Iowa in 1935. Since then a total of about 450 different wells have been measured. The present network consists of about 70 wells. The measurement of these water levels aids in evaluating the present and future water resources of the State. Many factors influence water-level fluctuations. These factors include atmospheric...

Source areas of salinity and trends of salt loads in streamflow in the upper Colorado River, Texas Source areas of salinity and trends of salt loads in streamflow in the upper Colorado River, Texas
A series of seven studies of the quality and quantity of low flows in a 35.5-mile reach of the Colorado River upstream from Colorado City, Texas, were made from February 1975 to March 1978 to delineate areas of saline inflow. These studies showed generally that ground water contributed throughout the reach is saline, but that loads of dissolved constituents in ground-water accretions are...
