Characterization of an aquifer system in the Upper Palar Basin: a case study

Hydrodynamics of the groundwater flow regime in hard rock regions, and its quantification, are not yet fully understood. This is mainly a result of se veral uncertainties involved in quantifying the hydrogeological parameters. Numeric techniques are potential tools in interpreting hydrogeological par ameters in hard rock regions. Such a study was carried out in the Palar Riv er Basin, Tamilnadu (India), where pumping tests carried out on large diame ter wells were interpreted using a numerical technique.
