GEOSTATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF GROUNDWATER PARAMETERS IN KERALA STATE, INDIA

Abstract

India has the fastest rate of groundwater extraction in the world, and the extraction rate is more than the replenishing rate. The effects of such extraction will manifest as not only depletion of groundwater but also pollution of the existing source. In this study, an attempt is made to study the spatial variation of groundwater parameters using data collected from CPCB. A geostatistical software, SpaceStat, is used for the study.
