An approach to improve direct runoff estimates and reduce uncertainty in the calculated groundwater component in water balances of large lakes
(Journal of Hydrology, 2015-10-30)Groundwater is important in the overall water budget of a lake because it affects the quantity and quality of surface water and the ecological health of the lake. The water balance equation is frequently used to estimate ... -
The influences of spatially variable rainfall and localized infiltration on groundwater recharge in a water management context
(University of Waterloo, 2020-10-27)Water management involves monitoring, predicting, and stewarding the quality and quantity of groundwater recharge at the watershed scale. Recharge sustains baseflow to streams and replenishes water extracted by pumping at ... -
Quantifying the Groundwater Component within the Water Balance of a Large Lake in a Glaciated Watershed: Lake Pyhäjärvi, SW Finland
(University of Waterloo, 2012-01-20)Accurate estimates of the amount of groundwater entering a lake on a yearly basis may provide valuable information for assessing contaminant loadings such as nutrient mass fluxes and the subsequent contribution of groundwater ...
