Description:
Rain water filtering down through the soil will provide recharge of the saturated fractured rock aquifer. he computer model FRACNET has been designed to distribute areal recharge into linear fracture zones in order to complete the regional water balance. n this presentation, a technique for modeling regional fracture flow with areal recharge is introduced, along with a demonstration using a hypothetical problem. ore complete description of the geologic conceptualization and the modeling procedure can be found in [Kraemer, 1990 ].
