CONTRIBUTION OF LAND USE DATA TO THE INVESTIGATION OF TRENDS IN FLOODING IN THE TUG FORK BASIN OF KENTUCKY, VIRGINIA, AND WEST VIRGINIA.

January 1, 1983

The U. S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U. S.

Changing land use, particularly the acceleration of surface mining, may cause or contribute to flooding problems.
