Karst Aquifer Recharge: Comments on Somaratne, N. Characteristics of Point Recharge in Karst Aquifers.
The article “Characteristics of Point Recharge in Karst Aquifers, Water 6: 2782–2807” by N. Somaratne evaluates various recharge estimation techniques applied to four limestone aquifers in South Australia. Somaratne [1] concludes that methods based on watertable fluctuations, groundwater modelling and water budgets are independent of recharge processes, and are therefore superior to the chlorid...
متن کاملQuantification of Groundwater Recharge from an Ephemeral Stream into a Mountainous Karst Aquifer
Sustainable groundwater production from karst aquifers is primarily dictated by its recharge rate. Therefore, it is essential to accurately quantify annual groundwater recharge in order to limit overexploitation and to evaluate artificial methods for groundwater enrichment. Infiltration during erratic flood events in karst basins may substantially contribute to aquifer recharge. However, the co...
متن کاملPolicy and Economics of Managed Aquifer Recharge and Water Banking
Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) and water banking are of increasing importance to water resources management. MAR can be used to buffer against drought and changing or variable climate, as well as provide water to meet demand growth, by making use of excess surface water supplies and recycled waters. Along with hydrologic and geologic considerations, economic and policy analyses are essential to...
متن کاملVADOCHARGE: Groundwater Recharge Model for an Uplifted Island Karst Aquifer, Guam, USA
The Northern Guam Lens Aquifer (NGLA) presents unique challenges to modelers due to the complex hydrologic properties of its thick karst vadose zone. To meet these challenges, we developed VADOCHARGE, an analogue model based on the US Army Corps of Engineers’ Streamflow Synthesis and Reservoir Regulation (SSARR) model, to produce the effect of attenuated and lagged recharge through the vadose z...
متن کاملEconomics of Managed Aquifer Recharge
Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) technologies can provide a variety of water resources management benefits by increasing the volume of stored water and improving water quality through natural aquifer treatment processes. Implementation of MAR is often hampered by the absence of a clear economic case for the investment to construct and operate the systems. Economic feasibility can be evaluated usi...
