Nebraska's Streams with Emphasis on Stream-Aquifer Relationships and Changes in Flow Regimes (OFR-50)

Bentall, R. 1980. Nebraska's Streams with Emphasis on Stream-Aquifer Relationships and Changes in Flow Regimes (OFR-50). 280 pp. + 9 over-sized maps. Description: Degree and kind of hydraulic connection beteen streams and adjacent or underlying aquifers must be considered if instream flow problems are to be understood or solved. Because part of the flow of most Nebraska streams is derived from aquifers and some reaches of several streams lose water by seepage into aquifers, formulators of policy relating to resolution of instream flow problems need a good understanding of the stream-aquifer relationships existing in Nebraska. This report describes those relationships and other factors affecting flow regimes. Special emphasis is given to stream reaches important to maintaining groundwater supplies for irrigation, municipal well fields, and industrial use.
