Water resources in the Blackstone River basin, Massachusetts

Gazetteer of hydrologic characteristics of streams in Massachusetts — Hudson River basin

“…Discharge measurements were made at 25 low-flow partial-record sites during the waterresources investigation of the Blackstone River basin (Walker and Krejmas, 1983). Measurements were also collected as part of the Massachusetts low-flow network at one site in 1978 and at one site during 1965.…”

“…This report provides the first detailed listing of drainage areas and streamflow characteristics derived from daily flow records in the Blackstone River basin. The streamflow characteristics presented are an expansion and an update of those given in Walker and Krejmas (1983).…”

“…Streamflow data used in this study are a part of the historic streamflow data collected under agreements with State and Federal agencies and the U.S. Geological Survey. Most of the low-flow discharge measurements used in determining low-flow estimates at partial-record sites were collected during the water-resources investigation of the Blackstone River basin (Walker and Krejmas, 1983). The file of basin characteristics was created during an evaluation of available streamflow data in central New England (Johnson, 1970).…”

Estimating surface-water runoff to Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island and Massachusetts

“…Assawompsett Pond, Attleboro, Blackstone, Fall River, Fall River East, Franklin, Mansfield, Milford, Norton, Oxford, Somerset, Taunton, and Tiverton quadrangles. These maps were checked against various l:48,000-scale Hydrologic Atlas maps for accuracy and occasional interpolation (Walker and Krejmas, 1986;Williams, 1968;Williams and others, 1973;. For some quadrangles, the atlas maps were used exclusively.…”
