Abstract

The interactions between groundwater and surface water are complex. To understand these interactions in relation to climate, landform, geology, and biotic factors, a sound hydrogeo-ecological framework is needed. The mechanisms of interactions between groundwater and surface water as they affect recharge and discharge processes are comprehensively outlined, and the ecological significance and the human impacts of such interactions are emphasized here. This thesis also over views the interaction process with variation of components of hydrologic cycle. Groundwater could be considered as an immense reservoir, from which only a certain amount of water can be withdrawn without affecting the quantity and quality of water. It is recognized that quantity and quality of groundwater are intimately related and should be considered accordingly. Though here only consider the quantitative analysis's of the sub-basin as to draw attention of riparian that how much inevitable the qualitative and quantitative management of groundwater resources.
