water-table level

Several areas experienced water seeping into basements due to high water-table levels.

More than half of France's administrative departments are currently subject to restrictions on water use, with this year's drought exacerbating declining water-table levels in some areas.

And it is possible that some but not all earthquakes might be preceded by changes in water-table levels, water chemistry and radon gas escaping from wells.

In boreal forest, drainage can be successfully used to lower the water-table level of postharvest forested peatland stands suffering from watering-up.

The natural, groundwater hydrograph of water-table levels reflects the dynamic response of the groundwater flow system to climatic stimuli.

Below average September and October rainfall delayed the onset of significant infiltration and, generally, increases in water-table levels were very weak over the last quarter of 1996.

Catchment managers and other practitioners need to consider the interaction between factors such as climate, soil type, catchment size and shape, water-table level, extent of salinisation, and land use practices.

It regularly floods when river water rises, sometimes almost as high as the entrance door, but peculiarly, the rising water tends to emerge first through its quarry tiled floor as a result of a raised water-table level.
