β¦ Synopsis
This article describes a system dynamics model to simulate recharge and Β―ow mechanisms in a fractured bedrock aquifer in northwestern Vermont. The model was constructed to aid in the interpretation of data collected as part of a stable and radiogenic isotope study of groundwater. Use of the model guided data collection and analysis throughout the course of the study, leading to the derivation of equations describing temporal and spatial changes in recharge and Β―ow mechanisms in the study area.

## Abstract Groundwater recharge and mounding of waterβtable is a complex phenomenon involving timeβ and spaceβdependent hydrologic processes. The effect of longβterm groundwater mounding in the aquifer depends on soil, aquifer geometry and the area contributing to recharge. In this paper, a GISβba
