Dynamics of groundwater flow and upwelling pressure heads at a wetland zone in a headwater catchment
Waswa, George W.; Lorentz, Simon A. (Springer Nature, 2019)The rate and direction of groundwater flow are a function of the gradient of the hydraulic head, whose components are gravity head and pressure head. This paper presents results and analyses of field observations of pressure ... -
TRANSIENT PRESSURE WAVES IN HILLSLOPES
Waswa, George W. (2013-05)Previous studies found that during a rainfall event, pre-event water, which exists in the catchment before the event, may appear in significant amounts in the stream stormflow hydrograph. Pre-event water is predominantly ... -
Transient pressure waves in the vadose zone and the rapid water table response
Waswa, George W.; Clulow, Alistair D.; Freese, Carl; A.L, Peter; Roux, Le; Lorentz, Simon A. (The Soil Science Society of America, Inc., 2013)The behaviour of a water table is important in understanding groundwater dynamics. In this 11 paper, results are presented of a disproportionate response of a water table in two distinct 12 transient pressure wave ...
