| Περίληψη: | Groundwater characterization is seldom performed in countries with limited infrastructure and resources. A short-term solution is to use numerical simulation to study groundwater using the limited available data. We developed a GIS-integrated groundwater flow scheme based on the finite-difference method to numerically simulate flow using surface geological information. We performed groundwater simulations, using homogeneous and heterogeneous media to evaluate flow changes resulting from heterogeneities. The results show flow barriers in low hydraulic-conductivity zones that coincide with the administrative boundaries of the aquifer; however, in high hydraulic-conductivity zones, the administrative aquifer boundaries do not match the geological limits of the aquifer. This finding gives insight into reconsidering the boundaries of some aquifers in the region for their sustainability, with an integral understanding of groundwater. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
