Recharge of the Guarani Aquifer System through the Serra Geral Formation: Well-head Protection Zone Definition - PHD Synthesis (Verstraeten)
The combined objectives of this PhD and the research project in which it is inserted, called âThe Serra Geral Formation as a hydraulic connection between the Guarani Aquifer System and the land surface: structural analysis and in-situ testsâ, are to define a flow model for the basalt, determine the hydraulic parameters of itâs preferential flow paths, characterize the recharge of the GAS for this specific geologic setting and specify well head protection zones.
