| Zusammenfassung |
| The signature left by capillary rise in the water balance is investigated for a 16 km2 clayey till catchment in Denmark.
Integrated modelling for 1981–99 substantiates a 30% uphill increase in average net recharge, caused by the reduction in capillary rise when
the water table declines. Calibration of the groundwater module is constrained by stream flow separation and water table wells. Net recharge
and a priori parameterisation has been estimated from those same data, an automatic rain gauge and electrical sounding. Evaluation of snow
storage and compensation for a simplified formulation of unsaturated hydraulic conductivity contribute to a modelling of the
precipitation-runoff relation that compares well with measurements in other underdrained clayey catchments. The capillary rise is assumed
to be responsible for a 30% correlation between annual evapotranspiration and the North Atlantic Oscillation. The observed correlation, and
the hypothesis of a hemispherical Arctic Oscillation linking atmospheric pressure with surface temperature, suggests that modelled
evapotranspiration from clayey areas is better than precipitation records for identifying the region influenced by oscillation.
