Estimating Groundwater Recharge

'... the structure of the book is well thought over, and each section can be perceived as a comprehensive elaboration preceded by an introduction and followed by a discussion ... well written ... students will find in this book important and interesting information that they can apply in their hydrological projects ... I find the book a valuable source of knowledge, supported by the author's scientific experience.' Geologos '... provides such a treasure trove of insight and information, presented in such an amiable fashion, that it deserves a place of honor on the bookshelves of groundwater professionals everywhere ... In addition to theory, facts, examples and references, the book provides valuable insight ... this is an extremely useful new addition to the hydrogeologists' library ... will prove particularly useful to modelers looking for insight into their uppermost boundary conditions (both recharge and discharge) ... it will also inspire some of us to go out and try one or more of the many methods that are so well documented in the book and will ultimately result in significant advances in our science.' Ground Water 'Clearly written, the book also serves as a reference work. ... The literature is covered extensively, with emerging techniques presented in historical context. ... Many hydrologists will want to keep a copy close at hand as a reference text.' Eos '... an excellent addition to the growing knowledge base of groundwater science and technology. ... By placing an emphasis on method, this book provides clear concepts of the recharge process and associated methods that stem from more than 800 peer-reviewed references. ...Healy's book offers a comprehensive yet focussed treatment in both theoretical and practical aspects through a wealth of cited references. ... the book comprehensively documents some forty methods that can be applied for estimating groundwater recharge in a range of hydrological scenarios. Perhaps for the first time, both theoretical and practical aspects are considered within the conceptual framework. It makes the book an excellent reference for both students and practising hydrogeologists to consult in their endeavour to better understand recharge estimation.' Hydrogeology Journal
