Abstract
The piezometric results indicated three main groundwater flow directions. Stable isotopes results confirmed the piezometry as the most depleted and enriched values in Oxygen-18 and deuterium were found respectively in downstream areas (southern region) and in the recharge areas (northern region) indicated by the piezometry. Similarly, higher tritium contents (up to 3.5â¯Tritium Unit) characterize recharge areas and low tritium contents (<0.12â¯Tritium Unit) were found in downstream areas. The combination of these results with the geologic and topographic data led to a coherent conceptual groundwater flow model shown in this paper.
