Chemical and bacteriological quality of water at selected sites in the San Antonio area, Texas, August 1968-January 1975 Chemical and bacteriological quality of water at selected sites in the San Antonio area, Texas, August 1968-January 1975

Urban development on or adjacent to the recharge zone of the Edwards aquifer is causing concern about the possible pollution of ground water in the aquifer, which is the principal source of water supply for the San Antonio area. Water-quality data for many wells and springs and for selected sites on streams that cross the recharge zone of the aquifer are being collected to provide...

Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources–Texas-Gulf region Summary appraisals of the nation's ground-water resources–Texas-Gulf region

Ground water in the Texas-Gulf Region is a large and important resource that can provide a more significant percentage of the total water supply of the region. Total water requirements within the region are projected to rise sharply from 14 million acre-feet (17 cubic kilometres) in 1970 to nearly 26 million acre-feet (32 cubic kilometres) in 2020. About half of the water used in 1970...

Water quality characteristics of six small lakes in Missouri: Mo. Dept. of Natural Resources. Water quality characteristics of six small lakes in Missouri: Mo. Dept. of Natural Resources.

A study of six small lakes, representative of those in the major physiographic regions of Missouri, shows variation in physical. chemical, and biological characteristics related to their location in the Slate. For example, because of climatic differences, ice cover and winter stratification are more prevalent in northern Missouri. Summer stratification lasts about one month longer in the...

Statistical analysis of water-level, springflow, and streamflow data for the Edwards Aquifer in south-central Texas Statistical analysis of water-level, springflow, and streamflow data for the Edwards Aquifer in south-central Texas

Water-level, springflow, and streamflow data were used to develop simple and multiple linear-regression equations for use in estimating water levels in wells and the flow of three major springs in the Edwards aquifer in the eastern San Antonio area. The equations provide daily, monthly, and annual estimates that compare very favorably with observed data. Analyses of geologic and...
