GROUNDWATER RECHARGE ASSESSMENT 
Are we any closer to an answer?

Wednesday 20 and Thursday 21 May 2009

University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK

Estimates of groundwater recharge are essential for water resource assessments, inputs to regional groundwater models and predictions of climate change.  Worldwide, the range of hydrogeological conditions encountered will significantly influence the recharge process.  Other than in situations where the soil lies directly above a permeable aquifer and recharge from the soil zone moves directly into the aquifer, for the majority of aquifers the magnitude and timing of the recharge is altered by geological complexity and climatic conditions.  Past understanding of recharge processes has been obtained from fieldwork, including the use of tracers and measurements of hydraulic conditions in the unsaturated zone.  Equally, to obtain catchment-wide recharge estimates over long time periods, conceptual models, for example based on the soil moisture balance approach adapted for urban and rural areas, with associated numerical models, are commonly employed using available hydrometeorological, hydrochemical and hydrograph data.

This meeting will consider recent progress in measuring and understanding recharge processes in a range of hydrogeological environments under both current and future climatic conditions.  A number of influential researchers from the UK hydrogeological community will give presentations to provide an overview and focus for this meeting.  The keynote speakers and topics include:

Prof. Mike Edmunds (University of Oxford) - Recharge processes in semi-arid areas

Prof. David Lerner (University of Sheffield) - Recharge in urban areas

Dr Richard Taylor (University College London) - Evaluation of recharge conditions in Africa

Prof. Rae Mackay (University of Birmingham) - Understanding recharge through glacial deposits

Dr Victor Bense (University of East Anglia) - Application of geothermal gradients in resolving recharge conditions

Dr Kevin Hiscock (University of East Anglia) - Climate change impacts on groundwater recharge

Dr Richard Ingram (Entec UK Ltd) - Application of noble gases in assessing groundwater recharge conditions

Mr Jan Van Wonderen (Mott MacDonald) - Soil moisture dynamics and impacts on recharge

Dr Mike Price (Water Management Consultants) - Water level response to rainfall and implications for Chalk aquifer recharge pathways

Mr Martin Best (UK Met Office) - MOSES recharge calculation system

The final programme and presentation schedule will be provided to all registered attendees and listed on the Geological Society of London website: http://www.geolsoc.org.uk
