Abstract

The current article presents the dynamics of groundwater level in the Armavir, Edjmiatsin, Masis, Artashat and Ararat provinces of the Ararat valley. The groundwater levels have been mapped in ArcGIS environment per years and months (2015-2018). Discrepancy between the rising and falling rates of groundwater level has been recorded. Meanwhile, groundwater level recovery has been observed which is related to the uncontrolled exploitation of groundwater basin in the recent decades.
