"The unconsolidated Quaternary aquifer which underlies the Great Bend Prairie in south-central Kansas has undergone a significant increase in irrigation development during the past several decades. In 1974, about 1,160 irrigation wells withdrew roughly 270,000 acre-feet of groundwater from the unconfined aquifer. Optimal allocation of irrigation withdrawals over the long term will require a fundamental understanding of the dynamics of the groundwater aquifer. With this goal in mind, the Geohydrology Section of the Kansas Geological Survey contracted with the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey to simulate flow in the aquifer using finite difference algorithms developed from continuity principles"--Summary

This manuscript is derived from the Author s Masters thesis, it presents coupling the applications of Geographic Information Systems, Analytical and Numerical methods to model groundwater flow in the sloping aquifers; Ogallala Aquifer-Kansas, central USA case study, using a stepping base approach. The study also led to identification of surface water and groundwater interaction points and quantities during the pre-development conditions, and the possible points of disappeared streams in the study region.

Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this jOint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 40 (thesis year 1995) a total of 10,746 thesis titles from 19 Canadian and 144 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 40 reports theses submitted in 1995, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
