Geology and ground water resources of Cass County, North Dakota
Cass County comprises an area of 1,749 square miles in the southeastern corner of North Dakota. About one-fourth of the county is in the Drift Prairie physiographic province; the rest is in the Red River Valley (Lake Agassiz basin) physiographic division.

A reconnaissance of stream sediment in the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
This reconnaissance study of erosion and deposition of sediment in the Erie-Niagara basin indicates that the highest sediment yields, on the order of 1,000 tons per square mile per year, occur in streams that drain upland areas. In contrast, for example, from the lowland part of the Tonawanda Creek basin, the annual sediment yields are on the order of 100 tons per square mile per year. The estimat

Chemical quality of streams in the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
The streams in the 2,000-square-mile Erie-Niagara basin of western New York contain mainly a calcium bicarbonate type of water whose dissolved-solids content generally varies between 140 and 240 ppm (parts per mill ion). Water "hardness" (expressed as CaCO3 ) is usually between 100 and 200 ppm, sulfate concentrations are between 20 and 60 ppm, and chloride between 5 and 20 ppm. The higher concentr

Surface water in the Erie-Niagara basin, New York
The Erie-Niagara basin contains about 2,000 square miles in western New York State. The drainage systems of the area discharge into Lake Erie and the Niagara River at an average rate of about 1,730 mgd (million gallons per day). Annual precipitation ranges from about 32 to 44 inches. Evapo-transpiration losses account for about 20 inches of water a year and the streams have an average annual runof

An appraisal of the ground-water resources of the Upper Susquehanna River basin in Pennsylvania
This report describes the availability, quantity, quality, variability, and cost of development of the ground-water resources in the Upper Susquehanna River basin in Pennsylvania, which is the entire drainage area in Pennsylvania above the confluence of the West Branch and the main stem of the Susquehanna River at Northumberland. The report has been prepared for and under specifications establishe
