Hydrologic data for urban studies in the Dallas, Texas, metropolitan area, 1979

Hydrologic investigations of urban watersheds in Texas were begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in 1954. These studies are now in progress in Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. The study for the Fort Worth metropolitan area was completed at the end of the 1978 water year, and this report is the last annual report for the Dallas metropolitan area. Hydrologic data contained in this report and all previous reports of both the Dallas and Fort Worth metropolitan areas are being used to prepare an interpretive report entitled "Techniques for estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods in the Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, metropolitan areas," which will be released in 1981.
