Evaluating the HYPE model for estimating groundwater recharge in a groundwater dominated catchment in Poland
Journal Title: Geology, Geophysics & Environment - Year 2017, Vol 43, Issue 3
Abstract
Hydrological models can be useful tools simulating climate and land use changes and their impact on nutrients outflows from a catchment area. One of them is the HYPE (HYdrological Predictions for the Environment) water quality model applicable to different spatial scales. Groundwater recharge via infiltrating precipitation is a significant water budget component. The rate of groundwater recharge in the HYPE model is estimated from the water balance in soils. The Kocinka river catchment is one of the test areas in the BONUS-Soils2Sea project where HYPE model modelling was carried out. A hydrograph, among others, is one of the modelling results and, based on it, the recharge rate of groundwater was determined. This value was compared with groundwater recharge rates estimated by the infiltration method used for the Groundwater Vulnerability Map of Poland.

Radio Magnetotelluric (RMT) measurement over lake Mälaren, Sweden: a case study
Over the past few decades the application of frequency domain radio Magnetotelluric (RMT) have been well established and utilized in the studies of near surface geophysics. This method uses the distance radio transmitter...
A new approach in skin effect and storativity estimation from pumping test with low pumping rates
Pumping test are supposed to be one of the best ways of determining hydraulic parameters of examined aquifer. However, there are many other effects which control measured drawdown in a wellbore. One of the major effects...
