    • Energy considerations in groundwater-ridging mechanism ofstreamflow generation 

      Waswa, George W; Lorentz, Simon A. (Hydrological Processes, 2015)
      Groundwater ridging is the rapid rise of a shallow water table during a rainfall event, in an environment where, in the pre-event period, the capillary fringe extends to the ground surface. Groundwater ridging is widely ...

    • 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 ...
