Chapter 18, Problem 44E
The Ogallala aquifer described in the Close Look box in Section 18.3, provided 82% of the drinking for the people who live in the region, although more than 75% of the water that is pumped from it is for irrigation. Irrigation withdrawals are approximately 18 billion gallons per day.
- Assuming that 2% of the rainfall that falls on an area of 600,000 km2 recharges the aquifer, what average annual rainfall would be required to replace the water removed for irrigation?
- What process or processes accounts for the presence of arsenic in well water?
