Abstract

The Mississippi River Valley Alluvial Aquifer, which underlies the Big Sunflower River Watershed (BSRW), is the most heavily used aquifer in Mississippi. Because the aquifer is primarily used for irrigating crops such as corn, cotton, soybean, and rice, the water levels have been declining rapidly over the past few decades. The objectives of this study are to analyze the relationship and interactions between evapotranspiration and groundwater recharge rates in the BSRW, and model the effects of various crop rotation practices on groundwater storage and recharge.
