Watershed Physical and Hydrological Effects on Baseflow Separation

Abstract

There is a great interest in understanding groundwater–surface water interactions among hydrologists and water resources planners. One of the most challenging parts of this concept is the separation and quantification of baseflow from the streamflow hydrograph. Therefore, this study is widely devoted to defining and testing these dominant forces within a watershed and incorporating their impact on streamflow components. The study area is located in the Coastal Plain of the Southeastern United States where separately measured surface and subsurface flow data are available for a field scale watershed for
