| Abstract | In an attempt to delineate areas of ocean groundwater discharge along the northwestern coastal area of Puerto Rico, a series of aerial photographic missions and near-coastal conductivity traverses were made. It was alos an objective of the photographic missions to establish that the use of small format (35 mm) photography, using Ektachrome Infrared and Ektachrome X film, is a fruitful approach to water resources investigations for small agencies. Three spring areas were found using a trailing specific conductivity probe from the Institute's 34 foot research vessel. (Author) |
