Technical Notes: Groundwater Recharge and Water Table Rise Under Equilibrium Condition

S. T. Chu

Abstract

Water table level is an important feature in subterranean hydrology and is relatively easy to observe. Groundwater recharge is a cause of water table rise and the carrier of contaminants to groundwater. However, groundwater recharge is an elusive quantity because accurate field measurements are difficult to obtain. A study of the relationship between groundwater recharge and water table rise is advantageous because it will allow the evaluation of groundwater recharge based on field-measured water table rise.
