The data of precipitation and soil properties in Xi′an area are analyzed by using the hydrological model DRAINMOD to investigate the influence of incoming water on variation of groundwater table.The model is suggested by the Wetland Research Institute,Department of Agriculture,USA.At the same time,the identification criterion currently adopted in US is applied to analyze the necessary critical incoming water for wetland formation.It is found that the incoming water with the same flow discharge… 

The data of precipitation and soil properties in Xi′an area are analyzed by using the hydrological model DRAINMOD to investigate the influence of incoming water on variation of groundwater table.The model is suggested by the Wetland Research Institute,Department of Agriculture,USA.At the same time,the identification criterion currently adopted in US is applied to analyze the necessary critical incoming water for wetland formation.It is found that the incoming water with the same flow discharge may result in different wetness in different months in a year.Consequently,the necessary water flow for forming the critical hydrological condition is not a constant.
