Preliminary flood-frequency relations for urban streams, Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia
A method is presented for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods for urban streams in metropolitan Atlanta. The method is based on adjustments to the natural stream flood-frequency and rainfall-frequency characteristics of the local area as defined by urban flood studies in other areas.The effects of urbanization on flood-peak runoff are estimated from the percentage of drainage basin th

Digital model analysis of the principal artesian aquifer, Savannah, Georgia area
A digital model of the principal artesian aquifer has been developed for the Savannah, Georgia, area. The model simulates the response of the aquifer system to various hydrologic stresses. Model results of the water levels and water-level changes are shown on maps. Computations may be extended in time, indicating changes in pumpage were applied to the system and probable results calculated. Drawdo

Ground-water resources of Wilson County, North Carolina
The most important sources of ground water for Wilson County, North Carolina are (1) the sand beds of the Cretaceous aquifer system in the Coastal Plain section in the eastern part of the county and (2) the bedrock aquifer system in the Piedmont section in the western part of the county.The Cretaceous aquifer is recharged from leakage through overlying beds composed primarily of clay. This leakage

Lakes Marion-Moultrie stream system investigation, South Carolina : Part II-Simulation Studies
A stream-reservoir model was developed to simulate the operation of the Lakes Marion-Moultrie, South Carolina, reservoir system. The reservoir system is operated under the assumption of a 3-day prior knowledge of inflows. This information is attainable from the ooperational reservoir-inflow forecasting model developed in the Part I report. The model, developed for this part of the study, incorpora

Magnitude and frequency of floods in North Carolina, technique for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods on natural streams in North Carolina
Methods are provided to estimate the magnitude and frequency of floods on natural North Carolina streams with drainage areas greater than 0.5 square mile (1.3 square kilometers). For 257 gaged sites, the magnitudes of floods having recurrence intervals from 2 to 100 years are provided in tables. For ungaged sites, equations, graphs, and maps allow estimation of flood magnitudes. Multiple regressio
