TGF0613 - Target 1 - Environment - WATER RESOURCES OF ROMANIA |
Definition |
The natural surface water resource is the surface water reserves of a territory that can be used for various purposes. This is represented by the amount of water expressed in units of volume accumulated in the water bodies in a given time interval. Romania's surface water resources come from two categories of sources, namely: - inland rivers (including natural lakes) - Danube river Groundwater reserves represent the volume of gravitational water stored in a certain period or at a given time in an aquifer or rock store. The reserves are thus conditioned by the geological structure, i.e. the geometry of the aquifer and the effective porosity or storage coefficient, a factor that expresses the volume of free water in the rock store. |
