Floods in the upper Des Moines River Basin, Iowa
Data on flood stages, discharges, and frequency are used in the design of bridges and other structures and the conduct of various operations on the flood plains of streams. This report provides these data in the form of flood-peak records, gaging-station records, frequency curves, and flood profiles. Information is provided for 253 miles of streams from near Boone on the main stem to the Iowa-Minn

Floods of April 28, 1966 in the northern part of Dallas, Texas
The floods of April 28, 1966, in the northern part of Dallas, Tex., caused heavy damage to a relatively small area. Flood damage was estimated at $2,500,000; and of this amount, $1,330,000 damage was along Bachman Branch, which has a drainage area of 12.3 square miles. At least seven persons died as a direct result of the floodwaters.
The flood was caused by a 5-hour storm in the early hours of Ap

Effect of feeding and of DDT on the activity of hepatic glucose 6- phosphate dehydrogenase in two salmonids
The specific activity of liver glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase in yearling rainbow trout remained unchanged when the fish were starved for periods as long as 8 weeks and when starved animals were fed diets of various compositions. Injection of insulin concurrently with refeeding also failed to alter the specific activity of the enzyme in trout. The absence of a dietary or insulin influence on th

Chronic oral DDT toxicity in juvenile coho and chinook salmon
Technical and p,p′-DDT was incorporated into test diets and fed to juvenile chinook and coho salmon for periods as long as 95 days. Pure p,p′-DDT was slightly more toxic to young salmon than was the technical DDT mixture. Chinook salmon appeared to be 2–3 times more sensitive to a given concentration of DDT in the diet than were coho salmon. The size of the fish greatly influenced toxicity, smalle

Ground water in the Ogallala formation in the southern high plains of Texas and New Mexico
The Ogallala Formation of Tertiary (Pliocene) age is the principal aquifer in the Southern High Plains of western Texas and eastern New Mexico. This heavily pumped aquifer supplies practically all the water used for irrigation, municipal, industrial (except oil-field repressuring), and domestic purposes.
Although the ground water in the Ogallala Formation in the Southern High Plains is common to b
