Holding the Rate: A Clogging Model, a Scraping Cycle, and a Sized Infiltration Basin for Managed Aquifer Recharge
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: With infiltration decaying from 0.50 to 0.05 m/day at a clogging rate of 0.08/day, a 30-day scraping cycle nets 0.213 m/day and a basin of about 141 m2 holds a 30 m3/day recharge target over a 90-day wet season (2,700 m3 banked); failure on clay floors, shallow water tables, and high sediment loads is printed. SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED.
