Geomorphology, Hydrogeology, Geochemistry, and Evolution, of the Karstic Lower Glen Rose Aquifer, South-Central Texas.
by George Veni, TSS Monograph 1. 410 pp.
$32.00, plus $5.00
postage in USA.
Monograph 1 is Dr. George Veni's doctoral dissertation, completed at the Pennsylvania State
University in 1994. It examines aquifer and cave development in the
Lower Glen Rose Aquifer within Bexar, Comal, Kendall counties, where
many of the longest caves in Texas occur. This publication will be of
interest to not only geoscientists and cave explorers, but to
planners, administrators, educators, and citizens who manage or depend
on the Lower Glen Rose Aquifer - which is a state designated critical
water resource of limited supply that is experiencing rapidly
increasing demand. This report includes extensive appendices with
cave, well, spring, water level, water quality, and other appendices.
Due to the likely interest among non-geologists, an extensive glossary
has been added by the author to this reformatted edition.
