The broad pattern, emerging from recharge measurements in various basins ranging in area from few tens to few thousands of square km indicates an annual input of about 16% (or 100 mm) of the precipitation in the Indo-Gangetic alluvial tract and about 8% (or 60 mm) ofthe precipitation in the Peninsular hard-rock areas. The Tritium recharge measurements are compared with those obtained by using hydro-meteorological and hydrogeological methods. The relation between recharge values and water level fluctuations in open wells is studied and regression plots showing dependence of recharge rate on rainfall over granitic, basaltic, sedimentary and alluvial provinces are presented. Data on temporal variation in recharge due to variation in rainfall over three hydrological cycles in a granitic watershed in the semi-arid area is presented. The utility of such studies in prediction of recharge from rainfall data is illustrated.Keywords

An attempt has been made to extend the empirical relationship between geoelectric parameters and hydraulic properties of an aquifer put forth by Kelly (1977) for the phreatic aquifers of Deccan Trap basalts. Results of pumping tests, resistivity surveys and hydrogeochemical analysis from Godavari-Purna basin were utilised. A linear relationship between Transverse Resistance and Transmissivity of phreatic aquifer was obtained. The linear relationship was extended to other similar basaltic areas for validation.Keywords

Resistivity sounding technique is conventionally adopted for ground water exploration in hard rock areas. From the interpretation and layer parameter evaluation alone, deciphering the actual depth to aquifer zone and delineating the thin high yielding fracture zones is found to be difficult. In many cases, the high yielding zones are found to be well within the bedrock signal part of the sounding curve. A non-conventional way of examining the apparent resistivity data of soundings was attempted for the soundings conducted over different hard rock terrains. The interpretation yielded a factorial depth relation with the yielding aquifer zones hidden in the bedrock signal. This approach has been used successfully in many areas of investigation. A theoretical base for the observed depth relation is at developmental stage.Keywords
