Groundwater being an important component of the hydrological cycle, estimation of its annual replenishment is essential to evolve a plan for optimum utilization. Groundwater balance approach, which is used extensively for the quantification of recharge and discharge components has been adopted...

Water table variations between drains have been investigated by various researchers in response to transient recharge. Recent studies have shown the importance of incorporating the effect of evapotranspiration (ET) in the design of subsurface drainage systems. In arid and semi-arid regions, ET...

An analytical solution for two-dimensional water table variation in an aquifer basin with inclined impermeable base has been proposed incorporating the effect of depth-dependent evapotranspiration (ET) from land surface. The proposed analytical solution has been obtained by devising a sound...
