Project description

The hydrogeological situation of the 'Kleyne Vlakte' is modelled by order of ANB. Both the steady and unsteady state density dependent groundwater flow is simulated. The last simulation was based on precipitation and evapotranspiration data of a fifty year period. Subsequently, these models served to study resalinization and/or wetting scenarios in the study area.
