EFFECTS OF URBAN LAND USE ON WATER QUANTITY AND QUALITY: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY I. SIMMERS Department of Earth Sciences, University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand Water & Soil Technical Publication No. 15. 1979. iv + 270p. ISSN01104144 . ~ Man's impact on the hydrological regime is nowhere more intensive than in urban areas. The massive increase of urbanisation expected during the next several decades implies that present problems are likely to be compounded. A brief "state-of-the-art" summary on the hydrological consequences of urban development is presented, and is accompanied by an extensive annotated bibliography and key word index. The material contained will be of value to the planner and other professionals involved in research on urban land use and its effects on water quantity and quality. Detailed information on peripheral aspects such as sewage disposal, waste water treatment, tip leachates and ground water pollution has not been included, though some suggestions for retrieval are given. . .
