Abstract:
The study consists of undertaking a monitoring campaign on poorly investigated springs in the area of Kfarzebbiane in Mount Lebanon to quantify flow at a high resolution and the currently available quantities for supply for decision-makers. Besides, it includes geological reconnaissance, mapping, as well as tracer experiments to allow the characterization of the catchment area of the investigated springs for a better understanding of the system in terms of flow preferential paths, velocities of transport in case of contamination, and delineation of contribution zones.
This report (Report V) presents the Conceptual model for flow in the study area based on the water balance for both Assal and Laban Springs. It presents the evaluation of the investigated zone as a groundwater catchment for Assal and Laban Springs along with the impact of the geological framework on the conceptual flow model.
