Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1978 Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1978
This report contains rainfall and runoff data collected during the 1978 water year for drainage basins in the Houston, Tex., 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. Rainfall-runoff computations are presented for three storm periods during the 1978 water year...

An economic analysis of selected strategies for dissolved-oxygen management; Chattahoochee River, Georgia An economic analysis of selected strategies for dissolved-oxygen management; Chattahoochee River, Georgia
A method for evaluating the cost-effectiveness of alternative strategies for dissolved-oxygen (DO) management is demonstrated, using the Chattahoochee River, GA., as an example. The conceptual framework for the analysis is suggested by the economic theory of production. The minimum flow of the river and the percentage of the total waste inflow receiving nitrification are considered to be...

Approximate altitude of water levels in wells in the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers in the Houston area, Texas, spring 1979 and spring 1980 Approximate altitude of water levels in wells in the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers in the Houston area, Texas, spring 1979 and spring 1980
The purpose of this report, which was prepared in cooperation with the city of Houston, the Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence District, and the Texas Department of Water Resources, is to show the altitudes of water levels in wells in the Chicot and Evangeline aquifers in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area. The maps are based on water-level measurements in 1979 and 1980 in about 500...

Hydrologic data for North Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1978 Hydrologic data for North Creek, Trinity River basin, Texas, 1978
The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the installation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing structures in Texas under the authority of "The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944" and "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. The U.S. Soil Conservation Service has found that approximately 3,500 floodwater-retarding structures would be...

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...
