/Rs |
1 |
Ratio of average
lake recharge to average aquifer recharge. |
| RLaSy
/Ra |
10 |
Ratio
relating theamplitude of fluctuation in lake
recharge to the amplitude of aquifer recharge. |
| q /P |
0 |
The
phase difference between the lake and aquifer
recharges, normalised by the period. |
| System Response |
| LR2Sy
/KHBP |
5 |
Non-dimensional
response time describing the ability of the
lake-aquifer system to propagate periodic forcing
applied at the boundaries. |
| RsLR2
/KHB2 |
0.25 |
A

0.05 |
Ratio
describing the size of potential fluctuation in
advective flowpaths relative to the aquifer
depth. |
