Groundwater Quantity and Quality in the New Jersey Coastal Zone: A Staff Working Paper.

摘要

The loss or severe reduction of our groundwater resources and the danger of local groundwater contamination is a real and potential problem in areas in and adjacent to the coast. The depletion of this valuable, readily available, natural resource and salt water intrusion and local pollution may severely disrupt the coastal population and its economy by limiting potable water supplies. This paper is intended to further debate on important groundwater issues.
