Abstract |
The study is concerned with the microlocation effect of water availability on manufacturing activity within the 194 county Tennessee Valley Region. The objectives of the study are to determine whether a statistically significant relationship exists between water availability in the region and location of water-oriented manufacturing activity; to determine whether a critical or threshold level of water availability can be identified and to quantify the relationship between water availability and manufacturing activities. Measures of both water availability or streamflow, and water-intensive manufacturing employment are developed at the county and small region level. Streamflow or water availability is measured by the annual seven-day low flow with a recurrence interval of ten years. (WRSIC abstract) |
