Aquifer catchments

Accumulation and Movement of groundwater The Advanced Center for Water Resources Development and Management (ACWADAM) focuses on understanding aquifers, which are crucial for groundwater recharge and discharge. Aquifer catchments are areas that recharge groundwater, while commands are discharge areas. Groundwater movement is influenced by water table elevation and pressure, requiring measurement of water levels. Recharge areas show diverging flow lines and fluctuating water levels, while discharge areas exhibit converging flow lines and stable water levels. Additionally, the relationship between watersheds and aquifers is complex, as one aquifer can span multiple watersheds, and vice versa, influencing both influent and effluent streams.
