Spatial variability of groundwater recharge - I. Is it really variable? [PDF]

, 2004
The spatial variability of recharge is an important consideration in estimating recharge especially as all methods of estimating it are 'point' estimates and in most places recharge varies in space.

Assessing the Sustainability of Community‐Managed Irrigation Systems Using Multicriteria Analysis and Sustainability Indicators in Northern Ethiopia: A Holistic Approach

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reservoir‐based irrigation schemes (RBISs) have been developed to minimize the adverse effects of moisture stress and improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in semi‐arid regions. However, many RBISs perform below expectations. A multistage expert elicitation approach and an indicator‐based Sustainability Assessment of Food and ...

Isogeochemical Characterization of Mountain System Recharge Processes in the Sierra Nevada, California

Water Resources Research
Mountain System Recharge processes are significant natural recharge pathways in many arid and semi‐arid mountainous regions. However, Mountain System Recharge processes are often poorly understood and characterized in hydrologic models. Mountains are the

Increasing Groundwater Availability and Seasonal Base Flow Through Agricultural Managed Aquifer Recharge in an Irrigated Basin [PDF]

, 2019
Groundwater aquifers provide an important “insurance” against climate variability. Due to prolonged droughts and/or irrigation demands, groundwater exploitation results in significant groundwater storage depletion.

Surface water irrigation reservoirs improve groundwater recovery in a heavily stressed aquifer

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Expansion of irrigated cropland area in eastern Arkansas has led to the formation of regional cones of depression and creation of critical groundwater areas for the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer (MRVA) in Arkansas. In response, use of surface water reservoirs for irrigation in the Grand Prairie critical groundwater area (GPCGA) has

Developing a preliminary recharge model of the Nile Basin to help interpret GRACE data [PDF]

, 2009
GRACE data provides a new and exciting opportunity to gain a direct and independent measure of water mass variation on a regional scale, but the data must be combined with hydrological modelling to indicate in which part of the water cycle the mass ...

Selecting performance indicators for farms and ranches engaged in collaborative agroecosystem research

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract The pace of global change complicates the assessment of the outcomes of agricultural management, hindering decision‐making by producers, researchers, and consumers. The Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research Network (LTAR) is in a unique position to advance monitoring to inform decision‐making.

Combination of GIS and fuzzy-AHP for delineating groundwater recharge potential zones in the critical Goghat-II block of West Bengal, India

HydroResearch, 2019
This study tries to show the groundwater recharge potential zones in groundwater-stressed Goghat-II block, using fuzzy-AHP technique. According to the central ground water board of India, Goghat-II is the only critical block of West Bengal.
