Science
Hydrogeology
Hydrogeological evidence anchors groundwater interpretation in aquifer properties and field observations.
Scientific question
How do aquifer setting, borehole construction, groundwater levels and hydraulic behaviour constrain groundwater availability and reliability?
Methods and evidence
Integrate borehole logs, lithology, static and dynamic water levels, pumping tests, geomorphology and field observations with explicit provenance and units.
Expected scientific outputs
- Aquifer context
- Borehole evidence
- Groundwater-level records
- Pumping-test evidence
Limits and safeguards
Sparse borehole coverage, inconsistent historical logs and seasonal measurements must be represented as uncertainty rather than silently interpolated.
