3 | MATERIALS AND
METHODS
The water table from the 11 wells at Hadat Ash-Sham station, together
with rainfall information from three nearest rainfall stations, was
observed every week from October 2019 until February 2020 (Figure 2).
The coordinates of the wells were also recorded to support spatial
analysis. Average monthly water table data is utilized for
spatiotemporal geostatistical analysis at a monthly time scale, with
ordinary Kriging technique, using ArcGIS software. It is obvious from
Figure 2, that the water table for the period of November 2018 up to May
2019 shows that most of the wells do not change since it was almost dry
period. The exception occurs on well 4, 7, and 8, where those three
wells seem to be influenced by the rainfall-event in January 2019.
