Tono Geoscience Center of Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has carried out the subsurface water balance observation in order to estimate groundwater recharge rate for setting the upper boundary conditions on groundwater flow simulation and to obtain data for calibration of hydrogeological model. In the subsurface water balance observations, meteorological data, river flow rate, groundwater level and soil moisture have been observed in the Shoma River watershed, the Shoma River model watershed and the MIU Construction Site. After missing or abnormal data in the monitoring data from the fiscal year 2013 were complemented or corrected, the data were compiled in data set. Furthermore the groundwater recharge rates in the Hazama River watershed were calculated using the river flow rate data obtained from the environment survey in the MIU construction work in the fiscal year 2013.
