Abstract:
A technique is presented for the estimation of ground–water recharge in a region where the formations overlying an aquifer cannot transmit all of the available water to the aquifer. The method is based on a routing model which is derived from the physical nature of formations overlying the aquifer. The model takes into account precipitation, evapotranspiration, soil moisture balance and the passage of water through strata such as boulder clay. The validity of the model is tested by calculated and field stream flow hydrographs.
