Hydrogeology
(With the exception of the two introductory chapters, this...)
With the exception of the two introductory chapters, this text has been written so that the main topics of water chemistry, ground-water hydraulics, exploration for ground water, and ground water in various geologic environments can be read in any desired sequence. The repetition of subject matter necessary to achieve this flexibility is minimal.
