Abstract

As presented in earlier papers (Fuchs and Fank, 1998; Fank, 1999) it is possible to generate initial and boundary conditions for transient ground water flow models using a set of measured groundwater hydrographs. In this paper we present


² geostatistical models for the evaluation of spatial and time distributed recharge (RC) using measured ground water hydrographs,


² limitations concerning the type of aquifer and the hydrological environment and


² application to the western part of the “Leibnitzer Feld”, a shallow quaternary
aquifer south of Austria.
