Classifying groundwater systems by their ability to recover from drought

Classifying groundwater systems by their ability to recover from drought
60-Word AI Digest

A few days of rain do not change low groundwater levels after a long drought. To better determine how groundwater systems recover after a drought and which groundwater reserves are most vulnerable, hydrologist Sandra Hauswirth developed a method to classify groundwater systems based on their ability to recover from prolonged drought.
