Water Supply Problems of a Desert Region
This paper treats of some of the water supply problems of a section of the Atacama Desert of Northern Chile—the sources of water, the nature of the waters and the losses which they are subject, and the works which have been installed for impounding and transporting water. Some notes are added on the utilization of surplus water resources for irrigation and for hydro-electric power, presenting conditions peculiar to arid regions.
