Assessment of Groundwater Potential C P Kumar

Scientific Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Meteorology, Aeronomy, Climatology, , language: English, abstract: Water balance techniques have been extensively used to make quantitative estimates of water resources and the impact of man's activities on the hydrologic cycle. On the basis of the water balance approach, it is possible to make a quantitative evaluation of water resources and its dynamic behaviour under the influence of man's activities. In this article, an attempt has been made to describe the methodologies to understand and evaluate the various recharge and discharge components of groundwater balance equation and to establish the recharge coefficient with a view to work out the ground water potential of an area.
