Abstract
High perched water table conditions, typically at depths between one and 2.5 metres, have created problems, including the increased occurrence of slope failures along nearby coulees for the city and the University of Lethbridge maintenance engineers. The source of water leading to the development of water tables in this region was determined to be over-irrigation of urban turfgrass. Water table development in the Lethbridge region is related to high turfgrass infiltration rates and high volumes of water received in till of low hydraulic conductivity. A statistical relationship was observed between the logarithm of water percolating beyond the root zone and water table depth.
