Provenance & quality
The quantification of uncertainty in the reconstructed groundwater levels for a given site is based on the Generalised Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) methodology. Parameter sets are considered to be behavioural if their Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency score exceeds 0.5. For each site, all of the behavioural groundwater level reconstructions are converted to SGI series. The probability of the SGI being within an interval on a particular date is equal to the proportion of these behavioural SGI series that fall within this interval and the probability of SGI being less than 0, -1, -1.5 and -2 is reported.
