Abstract

This monograph contains eleven papers that were presented a a Water Resources Symposium held at the Eighty First session of the Iowa Academy of Science at the University of Northern Iowa on April 18, 1969. It comprises a summary of some of the more important segments of the water resource situation in Iowa and the problems and responsibilities that have evolved in using this resource in the most beneficial way for man and protecting it for succeeding generations. The Symposium was planned and organized with an acute awareness of our water resources problems, the need for data accumulation and research, and for regulation and management so that the water resource will be used wisely for all concerned.
