Water level fluctuation in Nagavali Vamsadhara watershed of north coastal district of Andhra Pradesh

The availability, development and management of ground water plays a vital role in the sustainable development of coastal regions. The difference between the recharge and discharge from the aquifer decides the level of water table. Water table generally rises during the monsoon as the rainfall infiltrates into the subsurface ground and the water table is lowered during summer.
