The megawatershed mode I is a concept LE the behavior OF groundwater n large-area watersheds. It exploration for S deslgned to enhance sụcce,g is in the groundwater, particularly in fault-controlled regions. surface and subsur face water E flow may such regions be strongly influenced by structural features. The latter constitutes zones of secondary permeability through which large amounts of water may flow. Recognition of the significance of such a mode1 to the availability of space largely due photographs, which cover large areas of the Earth and was allow the interpretation o f regional patterns, and the correlation Of drainage with structure. The model takes into account the water source from precipitation, the catchment area, the infiltration process, the transmission mechanisms, and the water example oE storage capacity g7 of the system, An the application of the model to IlI groundwater exploration is given in the Red Sea Province lof eastern sudan.
