NETPATH-WIN is an interactive user version of NETPATH, an inverse geochemical modeling code used to find mass-balance reaction models that are consistent with the observed chemical and isotopic composition of waters from aquatic systems. NETPATH-WIN was constructed to migrate NETPATH applications into the Microsoft WINDOWS® environment. The new version facilitates model utilization by eliminati...

Abstract Groundwater recharge is the main forcing of regional groundwater flow. In traditional partial‐differential‐equation ( pde )‐based models that treat aquifers as separate compartments, needs to be defined a boundary condition or it coupling other compartments. Integrated vadose and phreatic zones continuum allow for more sophisticated calculation subsurface fluxes, feedbacks between both...

Abstract This study aims to calculate the water balance, interaction with irrigation inflow, and hydrodynamics of Lake Beseka by a spreadsheet-based model using climatic, hydrological, multi-temporal satellite images, groundwater, lake chemistry data. The rainfall for catchment was estimated as 558.4 mm/year, whereas mean evaporation computed 2,214 mm/year Penman method. annual direct contribut...

Groundwater irrigation has been instrumental in enhancing food security and, arguably, in mitigating poverty in developing countries. Groundwater provides timely irrigation, leading to an increase in crop intensity and productivity (Food and Agriculture Organization 2003). But groundwater irrigation also contributes the most to the depletion of groundwater reserves. Countries with significant g...
