Flow characteristics of the Lower Wisconsin River
The flow of water throughout the year and the stream gradient are necessary considerations in evaluating the recreational potential of the lower Wisconsin River. This flow is regulated in part by the dam at Prairie du Sac and influenced considerably by the 47 storage reservoirs and power dams above Lake Wisconsin. The river's gradient and flow characteristics can be illustrated by a river profile

Test drilling at Soldier Creek, Rosebud Indian Reservation, Todd County, South Dakota
Thirty-six test holes were augered by the U.S. Geological Survey in the vicinity of Sol,,r Creek, Rosebud Indian Reservation, Todd County, South Dakota. Wells prcducing more than S gallons per minute (0.32 litre per second) from the Tertiary deposits are rare. However, as much as 20 feet (6.1 metres) of permeable alluvial deposits were penetrated in several test holes. One test ell was pumped for

Sediment characteristics of streams in the eastern Piedmont and western Coastal Plain regions of North Carolina
The sediment-transport characteristics of streams were determined in a 6,000-square-mile (15,500-square-kilometre) area of the Coastal Plain and Piedmont regions of eastern North Carolina during 1969-73. The study covered all or parts of 21 counties and included data for 28 sediment-sampling stations located in parts of 4 major river basins, the Roanoke, Pamlico, Neuse, and Cape Fear. Annual suspe

Relation of precipitation to annual ground-water recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, San Antonio area, Texas
Annual recharge data obtained from historical records and mean-annual precipitation data computed from rainfall records were used to develop simple linear-regression equations for use in estimating annual recharge for seven subbasins in the San Antonio area. Adjustments were made to the precipitation parameter to account for the effects of year-end storms. The standard errors of estimate of the re

Data summary of June-July 1975 floods in eastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota
Torrential rains during late June and early July 1975, combined with wet antecedent conditions, caused severe flooding, mainly along the lower reaches of the Sheyenne and Maple Rivers and their tributaries in North Dakota, and in the Buffalo and Wild Rice River basins in Minnesota. The Red River of the North from the Fargo-Moorhead area to the Halstad, Minnesota area was also severely flooded. Bec
