Water Encyclopedia, Ground Water by Jay H. Lehr, ISBN-13: 978-0471736837<\/strong><\/p>\n [PDF eBook eTextbook]<\/p>\n The single greatest reservoir of usable water for man lies underground. Its location, management, protection and remediation have been a central focus of hydrology for much of the past century. Experts throughout the world have covered this subject, in unimagined detail. Ground water<\/strong> remains unseen but no longer unknown, and now amazingly well defined in every aspect of quality and quantity, development, protection and remediation.<\/p>\n Table of
