New method of calculating water balance for the Castle Hill, Buda

Abstract

In the previous centuries, a lot of energy has been expended on obtaining scientific data for the Castle Hill, Buda, declared a World Heritage site; however, only few scientists have carried out any hydrological research on the Hill, and of these only the results of Kessler's studies survived in a systematized form. The present paper is the summary of results of hydrologic and hydrogeologic investigations by the author, and provides a water balance model for the entire Hill.
