Abstract
The recession flow analysis of Brutsaert and Nieber [1977] extended by Troch et al. [1993] to estimate aquifer parameters (saturated hydraul ic conductivity and mean aquifer depth) is examined by means of a nume rical model. It is found to be reliable for the estimation of the catc hment-scale saturated hydraulic conductivity and mean aquifer depth. I ncreasing the complexity of the synthetic watershed had no impact on t he accuracy of the estimated parameters.
