AUTHORIZATION AND SCOPE OF WORK

This volume is one of a series of 14 reports presenting results of 

measurements of flow made on streams in the United States during 

the year ending September 30, 1932.

The data presented in these reports were collected by the United 

States Geological Survey under the following authority contained in 

the organic law (20 Stat.L., p. 394):

Provided, That this officer [the Director] shall have the direction of the Geological Survey and the classification of the public lands and examination of the 

geological structure, mineral resources, and products of the national domain.

The work was begun in 1888 in connection with special studies 

relating to irrigation. Since the fiscal year ending June 30, 1895, 

successive appropriation bills passed by Congress have carried the 

following items:

For gaging the streams and determining the water supply of the United States, 

and for the investigation of underground currents and artesian wells, and for the 

preparation of reports upon the best methods of utilizing the water resources.

In the execution of the work many private and State organizations 

have cooperated, either by furnishing data or by assisting in collecting data. Acknowledgments for cooperation of the first kind are 

made in connection with the description of each station affected; 

cooperation of the second kind is acknowledged on page 9.

Measurements of stream flow have been made at about 6,590 

points in the United States and also at many points in Alaska and the 

Hawaiian Islands. In July 1932, 2,790 gaging stations were being 

maintained by the Geological Survey and the cooperating organizations. Many miscellaneous discharge measurement® were made at 

other points. In connection with this work data were also collected 

in regard to .precipitation, evaporation, storage reservoirs, river 

profiles, and water power in many sections of the country and will be 

made available in water-supply papers from time to time.

2 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1932, PART 7

DEFINITION OF TERMS

The volume of water flowing in a stream the "run-off" or "discharge " is expressed in various terms, each of which has become associated with a certain class of work. These terms may be divided into 

two groups (1) those that represent a rate of flow, as second-feet, gallons per minute, miner's inches, and discharge in second-feet per square 

mile, and (2) those that represent the actual quantity of water, as runoff in inches, acre-feet, and millions of cubic feet. The principal terms 

used in this series of reports are second-feet, second-feet per square 

mile, run-off in inches, and acre-feet. They may be defined as follows:

"Second-feet" is an abbreviation for "cubic feet per second." A 

second-foot is the rate of discharge of water flowing in a channel of 

rectangular cross section 1 foot wide and 1 foot deep at an average 

velocity of 1 foot per second. It is generally used as a fundamental 

unit from which others are computed.

"Second-feet per square mile" is the average number of cubic feet 

of water flowing per second from each square mile of area drained, on 

the assumption that the run-off is distributed uniformly both as 

regards time and area.

"Run-off in inches" is the depth to which an area would be covered 

if all the water flowing from it in a gfven period were uniformly 

distributed on the surface. It is used for comparing run-off with 

rainfall, which is usually expressed in inches.

"An acre-foot", equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet, is the quantity 

required to cover an acre to the depth of 1 foot. The term is commonly used in connection with storage for irrigation.

The following terms not in common use are here defined:

"Stage-discharge relation", an abbreviation for the term "relation 

of gage height to discharge."

"Control", a term used to designate the natural section or stretch 

of the channel or artificial structure below the gage which determines 

the stage-discharge relation at the gage.

EXPLANATION OF DATA

The data presented in this report cover the year beginning October 

1,1931, and ending September 30,1932. At the beginning of January 

in most parts of the United States much of the precipitation in the 

preceding 3 months is stored in the form of snow or ice, or in ponds, 

lakes, and swamps, or as underground water, and this stored water 

passes off in the streams during the spring break-up. At the end of 

September, on the other hand, the only stored water available for 

run-off is possibly a small quantity in the ground; therefore the 

run-off for the year beginning October 1 is practically all derived from 

precipitation within that year.

The base data collected at gaging stations consists of records of 

stage, measurements of discharge, and general information used to
EXPLANATION OF DATA O

supplement the gage heights and discharge measurements in determining the daily flow. The records of stage are obtained either from 

direct readings on a staff or chain gage or from a water-stage recorder 

that gives a continuous record of the fluctuations. Measurements of 

discharge are made with a current meter by the general methods outlined in standard textbooks on the measurement of river discharge. 

A typical gaging station, equipped with water-stage recorder and 

measuring cable and car, is shown in figure 1.

FIGURE 1. Typical river-measurement station showing concrete well and house for water-stage recorder

and staff gages, cable, and car.

Rating tables giving the discharge for any stage are prepared 

from the discharge measurements. The application of the daily gage 

heights to these rating tables gives the daily discharge from which 

the monthly and yearly mean discharge is determined.

The data presented for each gaging station in the area covered by 

this report comprise a description of the station, a table showing the 

daily discharge of the stream, and a table of monthly and yearly discharge and run-off.
4 SURFACE WATER SUPPLY, 1932, PART 7

The description of the station gives, in addition to statements 

regarding location and type of gage, information as to diversions 

that decrease the flow at the gage, artificial regulation, maximum 

and minimum recorded discharges, and the accuracy of the records. 

The maximum discharge given under "Extremes" does not represent 

the crest discharge unless a water-stage recorder was in operation or 

a nonrecording gage was read at the time of the crest.

The table of daily discharge gives, in general, the discharge in 

second-feet corresponding to the daily gage height which may be 

a once-daily reading or the mean of twice-daily readings of a nonrecording gage, or the mean daily gage height obtained from a waterstage recorder graph.

At stations on streams subject to sudden or rapid diurnal fluctuation, the discharge obtained from the rating table and the mean daily 

gage height may not be the true mean discharge for the day. If such 

stations are equipped with water-stage recorders, the mean daily discharge may be obtained by averaging discharge at regular intervals 

during the day or by using the discharge integrator, an instrument for 

obtaining mean daily discharge from a continuous gage-height graph 

and containing as an essential element the rating curve of the station.

In the table of monthly discharge the column headed "Maximum" 

gives the maximum daily discharge, and not the discharge when the 

water surface was at crest height. Likewise, in the column headed 

"Minimum" the quantity given is the minimum daily discharge. 

The column headed "Mean" is the average flow in cubic feet per second during the month. On this average flow are based computations 

recorded in the remaining columns, which are defined on page 2.

ACCURACY OF FIELD DATA AND COMPUTED RESULTS

The accuracy of stream-flow data depends primarily (1) on the permanency of the stage-discharge relation and (2) on the accuracy of observation of stage, measurements of flow, and interpretation of records.

The station description gives a statement in regard to the general 

accuracy of the records. "Excellent" indicates that records are 

accurate within 5 percent; "good," within 10 percent; "fair", within 

15 percent; and "poor", 20 percent or more.

The monthly means for any station may represent with high 

accuracy the quantity of water flowing past the gage, but the figures 

showing discharge per square mile and depth in inches may be subject to gross errors caused by the inclusion of large noncontributing 

districts in the measured drainage area, by lack of information concerning water diverted for irrigation or other use, or by inability to 

interpret the effect of artificial regulation of the flow of the river 

above the station. "Second-feet per square mile" and "run-off in 

inches" are therefore not computed if such errors appear probable.
PUBLICATIONS 5

The computations are also omitted for stations on streams draining 

areas in which the annual rainfall is less than 20 inches.

The table of monthly discharge gives a general idea of the flow at 

the station. The table of daily discharge allows more detailed 

studies of the variation in flow. It should be borne in mind, however, that the observations in each succeeding year may be expected 

to throw new light on data previously published.

Many gaging stations on streams in the irrigated areas of the 

United States are situated above most of the diversions from those 

streams, and the discharge recorded does not show the water supply 

available for further development, as prior appropriations below the 

station must first be satisfied.

PUBLICATIONS

Investigation of water resources by the United States Geological 

Survey has consisted in large part of measurements of the volume of 

flow of streams and studies of the conditions affecting that flow, but 

it has comprised also investigation of such closely allied subjects as 

irrigation, water storage, water powers, underground waters, and 

quality of waters. Most of the results of these investigations have 

been published in the series of wafcer-supply papers, but some have 

appeared in the bulletins, professional papers, monographs, and 

annual reports.

The results of stream-flow measurements are now published annually in 12 parts, each part covering an area whose boundaries coincide 

with natural drainage features as indicated below:

PABT 1. North Atlantic slope basins (St. John River to York River).

2. South Atlantic slope and eastern Gulf of Mexico basins (James River 

to Mississippi River).

3. Ohio River Basin.

GAGING-STATION RECOUPS

MAIN MISSISSIPPI RIVER

MISSISSIPPI RIVER NEAR VICKSBURG, MISS.

LOCATION. In T. 16 N., R. 3 E., at combined highway and railway bridge of 

Vicksburg Bridge & Terminal Co., 1% miles below mouth of Yazoo River and 

3 miles southwest of Vicksburg.

DBAINAGE ABBA. 1,144,000 square miles (measured by Mississippi River Commission).

RECORDS AVAILABLE. April 1930 to September 1932. Stages only, April 1930 

to June 1931.

GAGE. Water-stage recorder in concrete house on fourth pier from left bank. 

The downstream cavity of the pier is used as the stilling well. Water is admitted to the well by three 6-inch intake pipes at different elevations and inclined 30° from the vertical. Zero of gage is 46.16 feet above mean sea level.

DISCHARGE MEASUREMENTS. Discharge measurements are made from the downstream side of the highway section of the bridge. The highway section is on 

the upstream side of the bridge, and the railway section on the downstream 

side. The metering equipment is lowered through an opening between the 

floors of the highway and railway. The equipment is operated by means of a 

i reel and boom mounted on a low-wheeled truck frame. The truck frame also 

carries a four-cylinder automobile engine which supplies power for operating 

the metering equipment and moving the truck from point to point along the 

bridge. Depth of water and position of meter are shown by a depth indicator 

attached to the reel. During medium and high stages the depth of water and 

velocity are such that the metering equipment is carried downstream and the 

indicated depth is too large. Conversion to true depth is effected by use of two 

correction tables, one of which gives the correction to slant length of supporting 

line above water surface, and the other gives the correction to curved length of 

line below water surface. The use of each table requires a measurement of 

the vertical angle in the supporting line above water surface, and this measurement is accomplished by use of a protractor applied to the line just below the 

bridge floor. The corrections to indicated depth are lessened by the use of 

large sounding weights. The maximum sounding weight used at the Vicksburg 

station is 300 pounds.

EXTREMES. Maximum discharge during period, 1,410,000 second-feet Feb. 26, 

1932; maximum gage height, 50.27 feet Feb. 29, 1932; minimum discharge, 

125,000 second-feet Nov. 19, 1931 (gage height, 2.85 feet).

DETERMINATION OF DISCHARGE. Daily discharge determined by shifting-control 

method. Changes in stage-discharge relation determined by frequent measurements. Gage heights estimated from records for Weather Bureau gage at 

Vicksburg for Apr. 24 to May 13, 1930; June 9 to July 22, 1930; June 18 to 

July 9,1931; Nov. 27 to Dec. 1, 1931; and Feb. 11-16,1932. Records of daily 

discharge excellent Mar. 17 to Sept. 30,1932, and fair prior to' that period.
