You will have the following assignments during the last
discussion on November 19 (Fri).
(1) Why is groundwater important as water resources
and a part of water cycle ? (300 words)
(2) What kind of techniques and methods will be
needed for monitoring and modeling of groundwater ?
(300 words)
(3) How to make integrated water management
including groundwater ? (300 words)

21st century : century of water
• Population increase, global warming, contamination
Æ degradation of water environment, water “wars”
• From exhausting resources to re‐cycling resources
More than 1/3 of world
population rely on
groundwater
Reasons why does groundwater
system change
(1) Change in input to GW system
Change in GW recharge rate
* change in precipitation (nature)
* change in land cover/use (human)
(2) Change in output from GW system
Change in GW discharge rate
* change in sea level (nature)
* change in GW pumping (human)

Conclusions
• Integrated study on urban subsurface
environments beyond the boundaries,
surface-subsurface (climate, geodesy,
hydrology) and land-ocean (hydrology,
oceanography) revealed that:
(1) Repeated subsurface problems occurred due to increase in water
demand and urbanization, then accelerated the GW circulation
(more than 10 times). It also increased the accumulation of
material and heat in subsurface,
(2) The alternative resources are important for society, thus
groundwater/subsurface environments are key for adaptation to
the changing society and environment. Subsurface environments
can be sustainable with careful management, and
(3) Integral management of subsurface environments are necessary
based on natural capacity and use of followers benefit.

Hypothesis
• The people who live in Bangkok
respect “Buddhism and temples”,
therefore they build the temples at
relatively stable land (such as
sandy soil with high permeability /
relatively high elevation), therefore
groundwater discharge may occur.
75
• Groundwater discharges
at the front of temples,
because the temples are
located in the sandy and a
little bit higher elevation.

Conclusions
• Integrated study on urban subsurface
environments beyond the boundaries,
surface-subsurface (climate, geodesy,
hydrology) and land-ocean (hydrology,
oceanography) revealed that:
(1) Repeated subsurface problems occurred due to increase in water
demand and urbanization, then accelerated the GW circulation
(more than 10 times). It also increased the accumulation of
material and heat in subsurface,
(2) The alternative resources are important for society, thus
groundwater/subsurface environments are key for adaptation to
the changing society and environment. Subsurface environments
can be sustainable with careful management, and
(3) Integral management of subsurface environments are necessary
based on natural capacity and use of followers benefit.

Hypothesis
• The people who live in Bangkok
respect “Buddhism and temples”,
therefore they build the temples at
relatively stable land (such as
sandy soil with high permeability /
relatively high elevation), therefore
groundwater discharge may occur.
75
• Groundwater discharges
at the front of temples,
because the temples are
located in the sandy and a
little bit higher elevation.
