Description:
Groundwater decline has become a serious problem in may semiarid areas of the western United States. Idaho has designated five areas in which groundwater decline has become critical. This study examined the effects of a declining groundwater level in the Raft River Basin, the largest of the critical groundwater areas. Dissimilar crop possibilities to climate differences in the basin necessitated its division into a northern and a southern portion.
