Design of Groundwater Monitoring Network in an Ungauged Catchment
Groundwater monitoring data can provide an important basis for regional hydrogeological map compilation and the initial condition in groundwater modeling. Designing groundwater monitoring network is especially difficult in the area without or lack of observation data on groundwater. In this paper, a method to design and optimize groundwater monitoring network is proposed. Firstly, the referential water table distribution is generated through a rough numerical simulation with dense meshes. Secondly, the groundwater level is sampled from the modeling results at the nodes on an initially designed network, as a monitoring test. Then, a new contours of groundwater level is obtained with the monitoring test using Kriging method and the interpolation error is calculated through comparison with the referential water table distribution. With consideration of both the precision and investment, an optimal scheme among the alternative observation network is chosen. This method has been successfully applied in Hailiutu River Catchment, in Ordos Plateau, China.
