Opis

This manuscript is derived from the Authors Masters thesis, it presents coupling the applications of Geographic Information Systems, Analytical and Numerical methods to model groundwater flow in the sloping aquifers; Ogallala Aquifer-Kansas, central USA case study, using a stepping base approach. The study also led to identification of surface water and groundwater interaction points and quantities during the pre-development conditions, and the possible points of disappeared streams in the study region.
