H23C:
Estimation of Total Effective Recharge of Groundwater: Significant of Recent Applicable Approaches between Different Climate Regions Posters


Session ID#: 8421

Session Description:
Quality, quantity and timing of groundwater recharge are primary factors for long-term sustainable use of groundwater. This special session is to discuss the recent and advanced modern techniques (like GIS, isotopes, chemical tracers, probes, thermal applications, and nanotechnology) for evaluating the quantity and quality of  groundwater recharge in different climate regions (like arid and wet regions). The advantages and limitation of different methods will be discussed. The role of climate in selecting different techniques will be presented. Climate could be considered as the main parameter controls the usable approach of such methods. In addition to the detection methods, this session will deliberate the mitigation methods and measures for surface –groundwater interaction. This session is attractive for a wide scale of scientists whose working on the sustainability of water resources in different regions and could include many of novel researches.
