Quantification of the water balance and hydrogeological processes of groundwater-lake interactions in the Pampa Plain, Argentina
This paper gives an account of the assessment and quantification of the water balance and the hydrogeological processes related to lake-groundwater interaction in the Pampa Plain by using hydrogeochemical, isotopic and flow numerical modeling techniques. La Salada is a permanent shallow lake, with a...
