Study of the climatic factors that affect the aquifer recharge.  Estimation of the amount of recharge reaching the saturated zone.  Determination of the physical properties which control the flow through aquifers, such as porosity, permeability, hydraulic, conductivity, and storage.  Analysis of pumping test data.  Study of the partial differential equation that describe ground water flow through porous medium.  Solving the flow equation by using numerical methods and simple computer models. Study of the chemicals dissolved in war and their thermodynamic equilibrium status in order to solve some related problems.
