Bibliography of Oklahoma Hydrology-Reports prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey and Principal Cooperating Agencies Since 1901 to Present

Reports on the hydrology of Oklahoma have been issued by the U.S. Geological Survey since 1901. Many of these reports have been prepared in cooperation with State and local agencies. Reports have been concerned primarily with ground water; the remainder have dealt with some aspect of surface water, water quality, or geology. A limited number of copies of some of these reports are available for distribution or a copy may be inspected at:
