Description: Explains the role of ground water in the hydrologic cycle. Warns of potential problems and suggests what must be done to maintain a plentiful supply. Includes definitions of technical terms., Presents a basic introduction to hydrogeology and includes definitions of the technical terms involved. Uses drawings and photographs to explain the hydrological cycle and shows examples of springs, caverns, sink holes, and artesian wells. Warns that near-surface aquifers are in great danger of pollution due to man's naive use of fertilizers and discusses what must be done to assure a plentiful underground water supply.
