Summary of Literature Net Recharge Rates

Krulikas and Giese (USGS 1995) estimated 0.6 to 9.02 inches/year, with induced recharge rates greater than 9.02 inches/year possible.

Shoemaker et al (USGS 2003) estimated net recharge rates from -5.12 to 14.96 inches/year.

DHI Big Cypress Basin Integrated Hydrologic-Hydraulic Model, 2002 calculated 17.1 inches/year average for 1990 to 1995.
