TL;DR: In this paper, three nonlinear time-series intelligence models, artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM) and adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), were used to predict the groundwater level.
Abstract: Accurate and reliable prediction of groundwater level is essential for water resource development and management. This study was carried out to test the validity of three nonlinear time-series intelligence models, artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM) and adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) in the prediction of the groundwater level when taking the interaction between surface water and groundwater into consideration. These three models were developed and applied for two wells near Lake Okeechobee in Florida, United States. 10 years data-sets including hydrological parameters such as precipitation (P), temperature (T), past groundwater level (G) and lake level (L) were used as input data to forecast groundwater level. Five quantitative standard statistical performance evaluation measures, correlation coefficient (R), normalized mean square error (NMSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient (NS) and Akaike information criteria (AIC), were employed to evaluate the performances of these models. The conclusions achieved from this research would be beneficial to the water resources management, it proved the necessity and effect of considering the surface water-groundwater interaction in the prediction of groundwater level. These three models were proved applicable to the prediction of groundwater level one, two and three months ahead for the area that is close to the surface water, for example, the lake area. The models using P, T, G and L achieved better prediction result than that using P, T and G only. At the same time, results from ANFIS and SVM models were more accurate than that from ANN model.

...The interaction between groundwater and surface water is an important factor and would apparently affect the groundwater level fluctuation in the research area that is close to surface water, such as lake and river (Ala-aho et al. 2015; Martinez et al. 2015; O’Connor and Moffett 2015)....

TL;DR: In this article, a total of 460 phreatic water samples were collected, including 58 water samples containing isotopic data (D and 2 H) and results demonstrate that water chemistry type and isotopy data of phreatical water presents a zonation characteristic from west to east and from south to north.

TL;DR: In this paper, multi environmental tracers (hydrochemical parameters, stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopes and radioactive 222Rn) were employed to investigate the interaction between groundwater and surface water along two rivers (Tiangeli River and Nomhon River) in the Nomhon area, southeast of the arid Qaidam Basin, northwest China.

TL;DR: The relationship between deuterium and oxygen-18 concentrations in natural meteoric waters from many parts of the world has been determined with a mass spectrometer and shows a linear correlation over the entire range for waters which have not undergone excessive evaporation.
Abstract: The relationship between deuterium and oxygen-18 concentrations in natural meteoric waters from many parts of the world has been determined with a mass spectrometer. The isotopic enrichments, relative to ocean water, display a linear correlation over the entire range for waters which have not undergone excessive evaporation.

TL;DR: This paper outlines certain fundamental principles in a graphic procedure which appears to be an effective tool in segregating analytical data for critical study with respect to sources of the dissolved constituents in waters, modifications in the character of a water as it passes through an area, and related geochemical problems.
Abstract: This paper outlines certain fundamental principles in a graphic procedure which appears to be an effective tool in segregating analytical data for critical study with respect to sources of the dissolved constituents in waters, modifications in the character of a water as it passes through an area, and related geochemical problems. The procedure is based on a multiple-trilinear diagram (Fig. 1) whose form has been evolved gradually and independently by the writer during the past several years through trial and modification of less comprehensive antecedent forms. Neither the diagram nor the procedure here described is a panacea for the easy solution of all geochemical problems. Many problems of interpretation can be answered only by intensive study of critical analytical data by other methods.
