Page 1639 - The dominant limnological feature of the Great Plains today takes the form of reservoirs constructed by the US Army Corps of Engineers and the US Bureau of Reclamation. The primary influence on the reservoir ecosystem is the suspended material and chemicals carried in by streams and rivers. The authors are studying ERTS images of Kansas reservoirs to determine the feasibility of monitoring these water quality indicators by satellite. The reservoirs throughout the state, which should be representative...
