A Precipitation-runoff Model for Analysis of the Effects of Water Withdrawals on Streamflow, Ipswich River Basin, Massachusetts

Book excerpt: ...Water withdrawals from the Ipswich River Basin affect aquatic habitat, water quality, and recreational use of the river; describes the development, calibration and limitations of a precipitation-runoff model, and simulations made with the model to determine the effects of water use and land use patterns on streamflows; also describes the study area, the data used in the model and the methods used to obtain those data and the methods used to estimate the effects of the pumping of wells on streamflow...
