Some stream waters of the Western United States, with chapters on sediment carried by the Rio Grande and the industrial application of water analyses
Herman Stabler
1911, Water Supply Paper 274
A systematic study of the waters likely to be utilized on the Reclamation Service projects was made in order to determine the influence of the salinity of the waters on the growth of vegetation and the effect of suspended matter in silting canals and reservoirs. The work was begun early...

None, Remote Sensing (1) 1125-1138
Large quantities of water are consumed by irrigated crops and riparian vegetation in western U.S. irrigation districts. Remote sensing methods for estimating evaporative water losses by soil and vegetation (evapotranspiration, ET) over wide river stretches are needed to allocate water for agricultural and environmental needs. We used the Enhanced Vegetation...
