International audienceLow-streamflow hydrographs can reveal the hidden structure of a cachment groundwater system. Researching for such a knowledge, Brutsaert and Lopez [1998] performed recession slope analyses on drought hydrographs from 22 subbasins in central Oklahoma. They confronted their results with three well-known approximate solutions of the Boussinesq equation when these solutions can be expressed in the form of the following differential equation
