Dissolved-solids data for the James River salinity model, North Dakota and South Dakota

Operation of the Garrison Diversion Unit in North Dakota will divert water from the Missouri River into the James River basin and thereby augment flows in the James River sufficiently to permit expanded irrigation and to provide new water supplies for municipal and industrial use. Salinity of water in the James River currently is marginal for irrigation use f and expanded irrigation may increase r

Statistical summary of streamflow data for Indiana

Statistical analyses of daily mean discharge values collected at 229 Indiana streamflow-gaging stations are presented. For each station, data collected from the beginning of period of record through the 1985 water year were analyzed. Summaries include flow-duration, high-flow, and low-flow tables, and monthly and annual mean discharge. (USGS)
