Introduction

ABSTRACT

Ground water is water in the ground in the zone of saturation from which wells and springs are supplied (Freeze and Cherry, 1979).

In the following sections, we will discuss the quantitative methods used for predicting the occurrence and flow of ground water, followed by a discussion of ground-water contamination.
