Album caption and index card: The row of shrubs marking the predam high flood stage is catclaw and has persisted with little change through almost half the century. The new riparian community comprises several species, including saltcedar, seep willow, waterweed, Emory seep willow, cattail, and desert isocoma. A rock avalanche at upper right is new since 1923. The mouth of Kanab Creek is at left foreground. Grand Canyon National Park. Coconino County, Arizona. August 24, 1972. Published as Figure 57B in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional Paper 1132. 1980.

Panoramic view from top of Needle Mountain over the Pinal Creek area of Gila conglomerate; to the right of photo 206 is seen the Schultze ranch, surrounded by granitic hills, behind which rise the higher summits of the Pinal Range. In the middle-ground Bloody Tanks Wash may be traced from ranch down to Miami Flats near the left of photo 207. Surrounding these flats and stretching far to south, into the drainage basin of the Gila River, are the low sculptured spurs of Gila conglomerate, rising highest on the right against the slopes of the Pinal Range. Gila County, Arizona. December 17, 1901. Published as plates 6-C and D (in reverse order) in U.S. Geological Survey, Professional paper 12. 1903

View westward along the Abrigo fault. The ravine in the foreground is eroded along the fault. On the right are Escabrosa and Martin limestones; on the left Naco limestone, The distant saddle is also determined by the fault which has there brought Bolsa quartzite on the right against Naco limestone on the left. Cochise County, Arizona. November 25, 1902. Published as plate 17-B in U.S. Geological Survey. Professional paper 21. 1904.

The Southern Nevada volcanic-rock aquifers reside in southern-central Nevada. This group of aquifers can be categorized into welded tuff, bedded tuff, and lava flow aquifers. Each of these categories possess different physical characteristics and have varying degrees of welding and number of interconnected joints. The lithology of these aquifers is primarily dependent on mode of eruption and cooling and are highly variable. Because the lithology is so variable, so is groundwater transmission, storage, and yield (HA 730-B). This product provides source data for the Southern Nevada volcanic-rock aquifers framework, including: Extent shapefiles: 1. p_57SRNVDV.shp: Polygon shapefile containing the areal extent...

The Ada-Vamoosa aquifer resides in the Central Lowland Physiographic Province in east-central Oklahoma and ends at the Kansas State line. The aquifer underlies an area of about 2,300 square miles. The aquifer consists mainly of layers of fine to coarse-grained sandstone irregularly interbedded with shale and limestone. The rocks are in the Ada and the Vamoosa Groups are Pennsylvanian age. The maximum thickness of the aquifer is about 900 feet. The aquifer is productive where conditions are unconfined and acts as the primary water source for several towns in the area (HA 730-E). This product provides source data for the Ada-Vamoosa aquifer framework, including: Georeferenced images: 1. i_28ADAVMS_top.tif: Digitized...

The watershed data management (WDM) database SC16.WDM is updated with the processed data for the period October 1, 2016, through September 30, 2017, and renamed as SC17.WDM. The precipitation data are collected from a tipping-bucket rain-gage network and the hydrologic data (stage and discharge) are collected at USGS streamflow-gaging stations in and around DuPage County, Illinois. Hourly precipitation and hydrologic data for the period October 1, 2016, through September 30, 2017, are processed following the guidelines described in Bera (2014) and appended to SC16.WDM and renamed as SC17.WDM. Meteorological data (wind speed, solar radiation, air temperature, dewpoint temperature, and potential evapotranspiration)...
