Evaluation of the impact of artificial recharge of groundwater by river replenishment in the North China Plain using a numerical model
Since 2018, the North China Plain has started a large-scale ecological water replenishment project for rivers and lakes, with 17.5 billion cubic meters total from the South–North Water Transfer Project and other water sources. It is a key question of how much water infiltration into aquifers will affect groundwater and how to characterize and evaluate this effect quantitatively.
