Efforts to understand and to quantify the interplay between precipitation, runoff, and recharge are often hampered by the paucity of appropriate monitoring systems. We developed methodologies for rainfall-runoff and groundwater recharge computations that heavily rely on observat…

Amargosa Desert, Nevada regional groundwater studies show that the surface runoff infiltration occurring in the arroyos following runoff producing storms, and this infiltration is considered to be a major source of groundwater recharge. Groundwater infiltration through alluvium …

The goals of this study are to refine water budget estimates and determine safe aquifer yield for the Salt Basin, located in south central New Mexico and west Texas. A secondary goal is to determine if a hypothetical well field on the New Mexico side of the basin can produce bet…
