Significance of river infiltration to the Port-au-Prince metropolitan region: a case study of two alluvial aquifers in Haiti

Mountain block recharge (MBR) mechanisms are an important component of the water budget for many alluvial aquifers worldwide. The MBR dynamics are complex, difficult to constrain, and quantification is highly uncertain. These challenges are magnified in data-scarce study areas, including the Cul-de-...
