aquifer model could be verified against the value or a range that was absent
otherwise. The plot of the error permits to check that the simulated heads are
within the permissible limits. The water levels being non-stationary in nature,
in general, are complicated applying geostatistical estimation in space.
However, this problem is avoided in 1-D time domain as the same parameter
shows recurring nature and until and unless extensive recharge or pumping
conditions occur, the water level time series are stationary and provide a
bounded variogram. Also the aquifer modelling provides water level as output
at any time intervals often very close and theoretically the time interval
should be kept close. However, in practice it is just not possible to monitor
water levels at close intervals in the field and thus the present study provides
a solution to match the two conditions.
