Modeling Groundwater Recharge in the Brazos River Alluvium Aquifer (BRAA) using CLM 4.5
Olivares Ramos, Efrain Eduardo (2020). Modeling Groundwater Recharge in the Brazos River Alluvium Aquifer (BRAA) using CLM 4.5. Master’s thesis, Texas A&M University. Available electronically from https://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/192999. Traditional hydrologic modeling has partitioned water cycle into its different component (i.e. rainfall, run-off, or groundwater models). An alternative approach will be described in this research project. Over most of the river alluvium aquifers […]
