<br />John Wiener, Comments to SWSf, September 2004 <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br />Figure 2: An illustration of why some places should not be irrigated, and why the allocation of <br />water and irrigation should be very place-specific. For the South Platte, see other work by CSU's <br />scientists and engineers in SP-MAP and related projects. <br /> <br />Inhomogeneity of salt loading suggests remediation by ending deep <br />percolation in source areas -- Can we move irrigation someplace else? <br /> <br />Figure from Gates et aI., 2002, Monitoring and modeling flow and salt <br />transport in a salinity-threatened valley.
