Analog-model studies of ground-water hydrology in the Houston District, Texas Analog-model studies of ground-water hydrology in the Houston District, Texas
The major water-bearing units in the Houston district are the Chicot and the Evangeline aquifers. The Chicot aquifer overlies the Evangeline aquifer, which is underlain by the Burkeville confining layer. Both aquifers consist of unconsolidated and discontinuous layers of sand and clay that dip toward the Gulf of Mexico. Heavy pumping of fresh water has caused large declines in the...

Simulated water-level changes resulting from proposed changes in ground-water pumping in the Houston area, Texas Simulated water-level changes resulting from proposed changes in ground-water pumping in the Houston area, Texas
The need for additional water supplies in the Houston area prompted construction of Lake Livingston on the Trinity River in Polk and San Jacinto Counties, about 60 miles (96 km) northeast of Houston, as a source of surface water for municipal supply, industrial use, and irrigation. Water from the Lake Livingston will become available to users in the Houston area early in 1976.

Effects of urbanization on floods in the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area Effects of urbanization on floods in the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area
The effects of urbanization on flood characteristics of streams in the Dallas metropolitan area were studied by use of a digital model of the hydrologic system. The model was calibrated by using observed rainfall and runoff data from 19 storms in six basins having various degrees of urbanization. The calibrated models were used with a 57- year rainfall record to simulate 57-year records...

Pesticides data-collection activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Texas Pesticides data-collection activities of the U.S. Geological Survey in Texas
The water-resources investigations program of the Geological Survey has the objective of seeing that the Nation's water resources are appraised and that the necessary water data to develop and manage them efficiently are available when needed. In carrying out this objective, the Survey is the primary source of hydrologic data that are basic not only to the quantification of the water...
