Water facts for Oklahoma

Water descends from the clouds, and forms rivers, lakes, and seas. It is delivered to the earth absolutely free, not in accordance with man-made specifications or orders but at the caprice of the elements. Hence man to realize fully the benefits of this incomparable and recurring resource must have full knowledge of its erratic occurrence before ways and means may be devised for putting water to b

Water utilization in the Nooksack River, Washington

The primary purpose of the investigation of the water resources of the Nooksack River was land classification. The Nooksack basin lies largely within the Mt. Baker National Forest and a considerable area of public lands will be involved in any plan for the ultimate development of its water power. Surveys on a scale of 1:24,000 and 1:31,680 were made from the mouth of the Nooksack River upstream to

Correlation of ground‐water levels and precipitation on Long Island, New York

A brief though concise statement of the history of ground‐water studies on Long Island, beginning with the early water‐level observations in Brooklyn by STODDARD in 1854, was given by THOMPSON [see 7 of “References” at end of paper]. These and other early data were considered later by LEGGETTE [8]. He evaluated them by means of a graph of the cumulative departure of precipitation. More recent stud

The hydrothermal solubility of silica

The solubility of silica glass in water has been determined through the temperature range 200 degrees C. to 420 degrees C. at a pressure of 300 atmospheres. Some previous investigations of solubility of silica in water, it is believed, have indicated a too great solubility as a result of failure to distinguish true solubility from colloidal dispersion. The solubility is essentially zero at tempera
