The research aims to understand how managed aquifer recharge affects saline water intrusion in coastal aquifers.
Employed the SEAWAT numerical code to simulate saline water dynamics
Calibrated and validated the model against controlled sand-tank experiments
Conducted sensitivity and grid-resolution analyses for numerical reliability
MAR effectiveness depends on aquifer characteristics and injection rates
Increased hydraulic conductivity leads to rapid water dispersion and smaller water table mounds
A 30% increase in seawater concentration necessitates doubling the freshwater injection volume for similar outcomes
A twofold increase in injection volume reduces saline intrusion extent by over 20%
