Oxygen and hydrogen isotopes in the hydrologic cycle
TL;DR: In this article, the isotope fractionations that accompany the evaporation from the ocean and other surface waters and the reverse process of rain formation account for the most notable changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Choosing appropriate techniques for quantifying groundwater recharge
TL;DR: The reliability of recharge estimates using different tech- niques is variable as mentioned in this paper, and uncertainties in each approach to estimating recharge underscore the need for application of multiple techniques to increase the expected recharge rates at a site.
MonographDOI
Estimating groundwater recharge
TL;DR: In this article, a critical evaluation of the theory and assumptions that underlie methods for estimating rates of groundwater recharge is provided, with detailed explanations of the methods provided - allowing readers to apply many of the techniques themselves without needing to consult additional references.

The use of environmental chloride and tritium to estimate total recharge to an unconfined aquifer
GB Allison,MW Hughes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a portion of the Gambier plain underlain by an unconfined aquifer with readily definable hydrologic boundaries has been divided into a number of areas within which soil types have similar hydrological properties, and mean annual recharge has been estimated for each area using both the tritium concentration and the chloride concentration of water within the soil profile.

The use of natural tracers as indicators of soil-water movement in a temperate semi-arid region
G.B. Allison,M.W. Hughes +1 more
TL;DR: In a semi-arid area of southern Australia, a change in land use from Eucalyptus scrub to cropping with wheat is shown to have caused considerable change in the mechanism of the movement of soil water and the amount of deep drainage as discussed by the authors.

The soils of israel and their distribution1
Joel Dan,Hanna Koyumdjisky +1 more
TL;DR: The main soil groups present in Israel are listed, their geographic distribution is described and related to pedogenic factors as discussed by the authors, and three physiographic-lithologic regions are recognized: the coastal region, the mountain and hill region, and the valleys, plains, and plateaux.
