Environmental tritium in the Edwards Aquifer, central Texas 1963-71

Tritium concentrations of samples from 50 wells and springs in the Edwards aquifer in the San Antonio area of Texas have been analysed. Tritium now in the aquifer is partly natural cosmic ray produced tritium, but most is tritium produced by atmospheric thermonuclear tests in the 1950's and early 1960's. The tritium levels in atmospheric precipitation and streams recharging the Edwards are present

Effects of urbanization on floods in the Dallas, Texas metropolitan area

The effects of urbanization on flood characteristics of streams in the Dallas metropolitan area were studied by use of a digital model of the hydrologic system. The model was calibrated by using observed rainfall and runoff data from 19 storms in six basins having various degrees of urbanization. The calibrated models were used with a 57- year rainfall record to simulate 57-year records of annual
