Notizen:
Flow simulations supplemented resource evaluation studies of the Lower Greensand aquifer. The annual recharge has hitherto been considered to be the resource available for development although a large confined storage exists. Pumping is principally in urban areas but recent monitoring suggests that the aquifer may have suffered excessive drawdowns. Therefore, simulation studies were carried out to refine the annual recharge estimate, to define the past effects of pumping and to obtain an indication of future trends. Catchment water balance indicates average annual recharge of 28 × 106 m3. One-dimensional (ID) ground-water flow simulation suggests that regional abstractions affect outcrop-water levels. The study showed that the aquifer reached a new equilibrium with the current pumping regime. An improved insight to the aquifer has permitted the formulation of strategies for future resource development.
