Abstract | Water problems and research needs are discussed by region of the State. They are also discussed under the headings of water quantity, quality, ecology, planning and management, and agriculture. A survey of research capability in Georgia colleges is included. Technology transfer needs are addressed and related to research. Though a water-rich State, Georgia has a wide range of water problems, including floods, droughts, pollution, local water shortages, soil erosion, and conflicts over the use of land and water resources. The problems are shifting from predominantly rural to predominantly urban. |
