Introduction
• Surface water and Groundwater interaction is a natural process
and is a complex phenomenon
• It is classified as connected and disconnected systems
• It can take place in three types
A) Water flux entering from aquifer to river (Gaining)
B) Water flux leaving river (Loosing)
C) Combination of both

Objectives
• Quantification of water availability using surface hydrological
Modelling (SWAT)
• To carry out simple water balance study to understand the surface
and groundwater interaction exchange pattern.
• Comparison of water balance study with sub-surface hydrological

Surface Water Modelling Using SWAT
• ArcSWAT is an ArcGIS –Arc View extension and a graphical user input interface for the SWAT model
.
• SWAT is a river based or watershed, scale model to predict the impact of land management
practices on water, sediment, and agricultural chemical yields in large, complex watersheds with
varying soils, land use , and management conditions over a long period of time.
• SWAT was developed based on SCS Curve number technique
SCS Curve Number Equation is (SCS 1972)
Where, = Runoff depth (mm)
= Rainfall (mm)
= Initial abstraction = 0.2 S
S = Maximum retention after runoff begins = 28.4

SWAT Model Input
• Digital Elevation Model: USGS, SRTM (shuttle radar topography mission) (90m)
• Landuse/landcover (LULC) data: MODIS Landcover type product (MCD12Q1) at 500_m
resolution for the year 2000 and 2006 have been used
• Soil data: To start with, data at a resolution of 1: 10,000,000 has been obtained from FAO.
However, all efforts are being made to use 1:500,000 digital soil atlas from National Bureau
of Soil survey and Land Use Planning (NBSS&LUP), India.
• Weather data: Daily gridded rainfall data at 0.5°×0.5° resolution has been obtained from
Asian Precipitation - Highly-Resolved Observational Data Integration Towards Evaluation
of Water Resources (Aphrodite), developed by the Climate Research Department,
Meteorological Research Institute, Japan (http://www.chikyu.ac.jp/precip/index.html).
• Daily gridded temperature (max and min) at 1°×1° resolution has been obtained from
Princeton University (http://hydrology.princeton.edu/home.php).
• Stream-flow discharges: Measured stream-flow discharges (available at Baltara gauging
station from 1970-2006) are used for model calibration and validation. This data, in hard
copy form, has been obtained from the Central Water Commission.

Drainage Map of Koi River Basin
• Digital Elevation Model: USGS, SRTM (shuttle radar topography mission) (90m)
• Aquifer Characteristics : Aquifer characteristics such as hydraulic conductivity, specific storage, specific yield and porosity have been obtained from Central Groundwater Board (CGWB), Patna and also from literature (Heath, 1983 and Ferris et al. 1962)
• Soil Characteristics: Soil types those are existing in the study area have been obtained from fence diagram map prepared by CGWB, Patna.
• Groundwater Draft and Recharge: External stresses such as pumping (groundwater draft) and recharge values for the time periods 2000-06 have been obtained from CGWB,Patna
• Evapotranspiration Information: Evapotranspiration gridded data obtained from MODIS Satellite data (1k ×1km) was used as external stress to construct the model (Bhattacharya et al. 2010; Mallick et al. 2007)
• Historical Groundwater Level Information: Measured groundwater levels for the periods of 2000-2006 have been obtained from India-WRIS website (http://www.india-wris.nrsc.gov.in/GWLevelApp.html?UType=R2VuZXJhbA==?UName=).
• Riverbed Conductance: To calculate river bed conductance, river bed soil hydraulic conductivity and river bed thickness are taken from literature (Domenico and Schawartz, 1990). River width is taken from google earth.

Methodology
Where
h = hydraulic head (L)
SS = specific storage (L-1)
K = hydraulic conductivity (LT-1)
t = time (T)
W (x,y,z,t) = a volumetric flux per unit volume (T-1)
Kxx , Kyy and Kzz are the principal components of hydraulic conductivity tensor (LT-1).
Governing Ground Water Flow Equation in Finite Difference Form
Boundary Conditions: Specified head boundary condition (Dirichlet or first-type boundary conditions) was used along all sides of the boundary Initial Heads or Starting Heads: For constructing the groundwater flow model, initial or starting heads are required. For this purpose, observed averaged groundwater level variations in the study area were used to start the model. Soil Type Information: There are majorly three types of soils exits at different locations at different depths in the study area. They are fine sands, medium sands and clay. Mostly fine sands percentage dominates than other two types.
Initial, Boundary and Aquifer Parameters
Aquifer characteristics: In the study area, aquifer characteristics for fine sands such as hydraulic conductivity, porosity specific storage and specific yield are taken as 0.017 - 43 m/d, 0.3, 0.0015m-1 and 0.33 respectively. River bed conductance: From the literature, in the study area, there exists silty clay soil as river bed material. The hydraulic conductivity of riverbed material, river bed width and river bed thickness values used in the model were 0.8 m/d, 286-771 m and 10 m respectively. External stresses: External stresses such as recharge and pumping and evapotranspiration obtained from above mentioned sources were used to construct the model. Aquifer Top Elevations and Bottom Elevations: SRTM 90m × 90m gridded Digital elevation model was used to obtained top elevations in the study area and bottom elevations were estimated using top elevations and soil strata layer depths.
Initial, Boundary and Aquifer Parameters
Steady state simulation of groundwater flow model of Kosi river basin was constructed by considering the above information
The model was discretized into 100 × 100 grid cells using conceptual approach
The groundwater draft (pumping) was uniformly distributed by considering hypothetical wells (758 numbers) throughout the watershed.
External stress values for recharge, pumping and evapotranspiration were taken as 0.002 m/d, 8640 m3/d per well and 0.0018m/d respectively.
Model was calibrated using calibration parameters (hydraulic conductivity 15m/d and river bed conductance 66 m2/d/m)

Calibration of Steady State Simulation
Transient groundwater flow modelling was performed to get seasonal groundwater head variations with above information mentioned using conceptual approach.
External stresses: groundwater draft, recharge and evapotranspiration for the time periods 2000-06 for 4 seasons i.e. January (post monsoon Rabi), May (pre monsoon), August (Monsoon) and November (post monsoon Kharif) were taken to develop the model
The model was calibrated and with observed groundwater level
variations.
The model calibration parameters were hydraulic conductivity ( 10 m/day for Clay, 25 m/day for Fine sand and 120 m/day for medium sand) with and riverbed conductance (24-66 m2/d/m).

Landuse/Land Cover Change Analysis

Analysis of Evapotranspiration Datasets
• Land Evapotranspiration (ET) is a fundamental
process in the climate system and a terrestrial link
among the water, energy and carbon cycles.
• Several methods are there for estimating
Evapotranspiration.
• In this study Evapotranspiration was estimated
using satellite data (MODIS) of Indian continental
datasets (2000 to 2006)) by energy balance
method.
Analysis of Evapotranspiration Datasets
• Actual evapo-transpiration (AET) (hereafter referred as ET) can be
estimated from latent heat fluxes (λE or LE) and latent heat (L) of
evaporation
• Latent heat flux (λE) is generally computed as a residual of surface
energy balance
• A single (soil-vegetation complex as single unit) source surface energy
balance can be written as,
Where- Rn = net radiation (Wm-2)
H = sensible heat flux (Wm-2)
G = ground heat flux (Wm-2)
M= Energy Component for metabolic activities
S= Canopy Storage component
37
Rn − G = net available energy (Q) in Wm-2
The combination of evaporative fraction and Q results into λE
estimates

Loosing Stream
River was partially gaining and loosing in
nature. Overall, river was stream loosing
during this time period (2006) and also
reconfirmed with MODFLOW
Effluent or Influent River Reaches (2006) Annual
Conclusions
Surface water hydrological model was well calibrated and validated. Groundwater delay and soil slope length were found to be most sensitive parameters.
Sub-surface hydrological model was set up with landuse/land cover changes by incorporating evapotranspiration variations and calibrated followed by validation. Hydraulic conductivity and river bed conductance were found to be most sensitive parameters.
As an initial tool, a simple water balance was carried out with SWAT Model to understand the interaction exchange varied annual scale level.
Using MODFLOW, river-aquifer interaction exchange was evaluated and compared the trends for the same time periods with water balance study
Through the water balance study, significant change was observed in the river-aquifer interaction exchange from the year 2000-2006 and it was reflected for the landuse/land cover changes incorporated in the MODFLOW.
The combination of surface and sub-surface hydrological model can be used to understand the effect of LULC on Surface and groundwater interaction exchange process.
