Incorporation of Satellite Data and Uncertainty in a Nationwide Groundwater Recharge Model in New Zealand
A nationwide model of groundwater recharge for New Zealand (NGRM), as described in this paper, demonstrated the benefits of satellite data and global models to improve the spatial definition of recharge and the estimation of recharge uncertainty. NGRM was inspired by the global-scale WaterGAP model but with the key development of rainfall recharge calculation on scales relevant to nationaland c...
متن کاملPRO-GRADE: GIS toolkits for ground water recharge and discharge estimation.
PRO-GRADE is an ESRI ArcGIS 9.2 plug-in package that consists of two separate toolkits: (1) the pattern recognition organizer for geographic information system (PRO-GIS) and (2) the ground water recharge and discharge estimator for GIS (GRADE-GIS). PRO-GIS is a collection of several existing image-processing algorithms into one user interface to offer the flexibility to extract spatial patterns...
متن کاملA model-averaging method for assessing groundwater conceptual model uncertainty.
This study evaluates alternative groundwater models with different recharge and geologic components at the northern Yucca Flat area of the Death Valley Regional Flow System (DVRFS), USA. Recharge over the DVRFS has been estimated using five methods, and five geological interpretations are available at the northern Yucca Flat area. Combining the recharge and geological components together with a...
متن کاملOn the interpretation of recharge estimates from steady-state model calibrations.
Ground water recharge is often estimated through the calibration of ground water flow models. We examine the nature of calibration errors by considering some simple mathematical and numerical calculations. From these calculations, we conclude that calibrating a steady-state ground water flow model to water level extremes yields estimates of recharge that have the same value as the time-varying ...
متن کاملThe interaction between groundwater flow systems, water supply wells, and natural or artificial groundwater recharge creates a complex velocity flow field in aquifers
Groundwater recharge must be well understood for the effective utilization of water resources. In this article some of the recent studies in groundwater recharge modeling are detailed and discussed. The topics covered include (1) Recharge modeling in deterministic framework, (2)Recharge modeling in stochastic framework, (3) Recharge modeling using electromagnetic surveys (4) Mountain front rech...
