Groundwater is one of the most valuable natural resources, which supports human health,
economic development and ecological diversity. Overexploitation and unabated pollution of …

The development of irrigated agriculture is a requirement for feeding the rising world
population but without proper drainage provisions, this development can result in irrigation …

Understanding groundwater recharge is essential for successful management of water
resources and modeling fluid and contaminant transport within the subsurface. This book …

Global synthesis of the findings from∼ 140 recharge study areas in semiarid and arid
regions provides important information on recharge rates, controls, and processes, which …

A spatially distributed water balance model is developed to simulate long-term average
recharge depending on land cover, soil texture, topography and hydrometeorological …

Regional ground-water recharge estimates for Minnesota were compared to estimates made
on the basis of four local-and basin-scale methods. Three local-scale methods (unsaturated …

We used the natural abundance of stable isotopic ratios of hydrogen and oxygen in soil
(0.05–3 m depth), plant xylem and precipitation to determine the seasonal changes in …

A methodology is presented for assessing the average changes in groundwater recharge
under a future climate. The method is applied to the 1,060,000 km2 Murray-Darling Basin …

The smoothed minima baseflow separation method of the United Kingdom Institute of
Hydrology (UKIH) is coupled with the recursive digital filter (RDF) to develop the filtered …

Partitioning of precipitation between evapotranspiration and runoff at the basin scale is
primarily controlled by climate and basin characteristics. Here we use the Budyko …
