Abstract |
These Proceedings include abstracts of papers presented at the Conference held by the Institute of Water Resources at the University of Connecticut on May 18, 1970. The title of each presentation is the same as that of the research project. Also given for each are the personnel, academic departments, planned duration and the objectives of the investigations. Each abstract is a brief summary of accomplishments to date and plans for the future. The program of the Institute has become increasingly diverse in the approximately six years that it has been in existence. Projects in the agricultural, biological, engineering, earth, social and physical sciences have been or now are active. Continued expansion, both in scope of the research and in the number of projects, is planned. The results of these investigations will, in many cases, have direct application to solving problems of water resources use and development in Connecticut and will result in important contributions to the fund of scientific information about water in a broad range of disciplines.
