Water quality of Canyon Lake, central Texas Water quality of Canyon Lake, central Texas
The volume-weighted average concentrations of the principal dissolved constituents in Canyon Lake on the Guadalupe River in central Texas are usually less than 240 milligrams per liter of dissolved solids, 20 milligrams per liter of chloride, and 30 milligrams per liter of sulfate. The water, which is very hard, has a volume-weighted average concentration of hardness of about 200...

Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1979 Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area, 1979
Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. Studies are now in progress in Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the city of Houston, began studies in the Houston metropolitan area in 1964. The program was expanded in 1968 to include collection of water-quality data. The objectives of...

Estimating the magnitude of peak discharges for selected flood frequencies on small streams in South Carolina (1975) Estimating the magnitude of peak discharges for selected flood frequencies on small streams in South Carolina (1975)
A program to collect and analyze flood data from small streams in South Carolina was conducted from 1967-75, as a cooperative research project with the South Carolina Department of Highways and Public Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. As a result of that program, a technique is presented for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods on small streams in South...

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, Tex., were made from February 1975 to March 1978 to delineate areas of saline inflows. These studies showed generally that ground water contributed throughout the reach is saline but that loads of dissolved-constituents in ground-water accretions are...

Flood of May 24-25, 1981, in the Austin, Texas, metropolitan area Flood of May 24-25, 1981, in the Austin, Texas, metropolitan area
Hydrologic data pertaining to the magnitude and areal extent of flooding that occurred on May 24-25, 1981, along Shoal, Walnut, and Little Walnut Creeks in the Austin, Texas, metropolitan area are presented in this atlas. The flood boundary maps and other flood data provide a technical data base for land-use planning.

Ground-water data for Georgia, 1981 Ground-water data for Georgia, 1981
More than 2,000 water-level measurements made in Georgia in 1981 provide the basic data for this report. Daily mean water-level fluctuations and trends are shown in hydrographs for the previous year (1980) and fluctuations of the monthly mean water levels are shown for selected years in some observation wells in Georgia. Water-quality samples are collected periodically throughout Georgia...

Hydrology of the low-level radioactive solid waste burial site and vicinity near Barnwell, South Carolina Hydrology of the low-level radioactive solid waste burial site and vicinity near Barnwell, South Carolina
Geologic and hydrologic conditions at a burial site for low-level radioactive waste were studied, and migration of leachates from the buried waste into surrounding unconsolidated sediments were evaluated. The burial site and vicinity are underlain by a sequence of unconsolidated sediments of Late Cretaceous, Tertiary, and Quaternary age. These sediments are deposited over a graben which...
