Effects of controlled agricultural practices on water quality in the Minnesota sand-plain aquifer
H. W. Anderson Jr., J.D. Stoner
1989, Open-File Report 89-267
Recent studies of Minnesota's sand plains indicate that ground-water chemistry is related to agricultural practices. Surficial sand-plain aquifers cover 8,000,000 acres of Minnesota and are a major source of water for domestic use, irrigation, and some municipal systems. The sand-plain aquifers consist of sand and gravel deposits that are from...
