Hydrogeologic sensitivity means an assessment of the potential ease and speed of vertical infiltration or recharge of a liquid through the soil and the unsaturated zones combined with assessments of the maximum potential flow rate and dispersion potential after entry into the principal or uppermost saturated zone.

What are hydrogeological characteristics?

In hydrogeological terms, Badenian deposits ( ) can have low and high permeability. In their coarse clastic and carbonate development, they form a permeable environment that enables the infiltration of surface water and the formation of aquifers in contrast to the Badenian marls, which have low permeability.

What is a hydrogeologic study?

Hydrogeology is the study of groundwater – it is sometimes referred to as geohydrology or groundwater hydrology. Hydrogeology deals with how water gets into the ground (recharge), how it flows in the subsurface (through aquifers) and how groundwater interacts with the surrounding soil and rock (the geology).
