Present_Water_Table_Level(PWTL)

This repository use the Water Table Model (WTM) to simulate the present-day water table levels across various regions. The simulations aim to provide insights into groundwater behavior using robust modeling techniques.

Repository Structure

The repository is structured into the following folders:

• codes/: Contains all Python scripts for:
  • Preparing input data.
  • Generating individual layers.
  • Extracting and processing blocks of data at yearly, monthly, and seasonal scales.
  • Performing Bias Correction and Spatial Downscaling (BCSD).
  • Calculating variables such as Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD).
  • Converting units for datasets (e.g., mm to m).

Example of Codes Included:

• all_1year_block_extraction.py: Extracts one-year blocks from datasets.
• all_monthly_block_extraction.py: Extracts monthly blocks from datasets.
• Calculate_VPD.py: Script to calculate Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD).
• convert_mm_to_m.py: Converts data units from mm to m for standardization.

Simulations and Outputs

The simulations conducted in this repository aim to:

• Reconstruct present-day water table levels using the WTM.
• Integrate high-resolution datasets for better accuracy and representation.
• Provide layered outputs for further analysis.

How to Use

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/Present_Water_Table_Level.git
