Objectives
The monitoring of subsurface water within WP4 requires significant,
state of the art technological input, with the drilling and installation
of monitoring equipment, including the TDR probes. This WP will aim to
demonstrate the successful installation and running of the technology,
including its ability to accurately monitor sub-surface water flow.
Drilling the slanted borehole in the
river bed of the Andarax River
The demonstration activities aim at
developing and implementing a routine methodology for the estimation of
recharge rates from ephemeral rivers based on economically accessible
data. For this purpose the data requirements will be listed and the data
gathering process documented within a manual with figures, tables and
photographs. This includes the site characterisation, the survey of
groundwater data and hydrological data, the sampling and analytical
techniques.
