Groundwater feeds surface water and vice versa In the Mupfure catchment in Zimbabwe, Mare (1998) showed that more than 60% of the total runoff of the catchment originated from groundwater Hence most of the water measured at the outfall was groundwater One can say that all renewable groundwater becomes surface water and WaterNet / CCR / ISRI / Catalic / UNESCO-IHE Delft / UZ for UNESCO CourseABasics of. .. groundwater and surface water cannot be separated and although surface water consists to a large extent of groundwater, they are often dealt with separately This is because they have quite different characteristics (time scales, quantities, availability) and because they obey different laws of motion 2.1 The water balance In the field of hydrology the budget idea is widely used Water balances are based...
