Abstract:Increasing groundwater levels (GWL) may become one of the most serious issues for Odessa City, Ukraine. This study investigated the spatial distribution characteristics and multifractal scaling behaviour of groundwater level/depth fluctuation for a Quaternary aquifer in Odessa City using a geostatistical approach and a Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MF-DFA). These two methods were applied to monthly GWL fluctuation time series from 1970 to 2020 to monitor 72 hydrogeological wells situated in diff… Show more
