Catchment Area usually Watershed Area when Possible Recharge is Considered Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Watershed Area = (Possible Recharge+Gross Water Draft)/Water Level Fluctuation*Specific Yield
A = (R+DG)/h*SY
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Watershed Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Watershed Area refers to the isolated area with a well demarcated boundary line, draining the rainwater to a single outlet.
Possible Recharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Possible Recharge refers to the gross recharge minus the natural recharge of the area.
Gross Water Draft - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Gross Water Draft refers to the total volume of water extracted or utilized from a catchment area.
Water Level Fluctuation - (Measured in Meter) - The Water Level Fluctuation refers to the irregular rising and falling in number or amount of water during monsoon season.
Specific Yield - The Specific Yield refers to the volume of water that a saturated rock or soil will yield due to gravity drainage to the total volume of the rock or soil.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Possible Recharge: 70 Cubic Meter per Second --> 70 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Gross Water Draft: 10 Cubic Meter per Second --> 10 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Water Level Fluctuation: 5 Meter --> 5 Meter No Conversion Required
Specific Yield: 0.59 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
A = (R+DG)/h*SY --> (70+10)/5*0.59
Evaluating ... ...
A = 9.44
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
9.44 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
9.44 Square Meter <-- Watershed Area
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Groundwater Level Fluctuation Calculators

Equation for Specific Yield
​ Go Specific Yield = (Gross Recharge due to Rainfall-Gross Water Draft-Base Flow into the Stream from the Area+Recharge of Ground Water Body+Net Ground Water Flowing Outside Catchment)/(Watershed Area*Water Level Fluctuation)
Equation for Gross Recharge due to Rainfall and other Sources
​ Go Gross Recharge due to Rainfall = (Water Level Fluctuation*Specific Yield*Watershed Area)+Gross Water Draft+Base Flow into the Stream from the Area-Recharge of Ground Water Body-Net Ground Water Flowing Outside Catchment
Equation for Base Flow into Stream from Area
​ Go Base Flow into the Stream from the Area = Gross Recharge due to Rainfall-Gross Water Draft+Recharge of Ground Water Body+Net Ground Water Flowing Outside Catchment-(Water Level Fluctuation*Specific Yield*Watershed Area)
Equation for Gross Water Draft
​ Go Gross Water Draft = Gross Recharge due to Rainfall-Base Flow into the Stream from the Area+Recharge of Ground Water Body+Net Ground Water Flowing Outside Catchment-(Water Level Fluctuation*Specific Yield*Watershed Area)

Catchment Area usually Watershed Area when Possible Recharge is Considered Formula

Watershed Area = (Possible Recharge+Gross Water Draft)/Water Level Fluctuation*Specific Yield
A = (R+DG)/h*SY

What is Recharge in Hydrology?

Groundwater Recharge or deep drainage or deep percolation is a hydrologic process, where water moves downward from surface water to groundwater. Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer.
