The paper proposes two Deep Learning (DL) models to predict water table depth in a catchment area using weather image time series. The models are designed to address the lack of hydrological data and rely on available weather data, which significantly impacts water resources. The first model, TDC-LSTM, combines Time Distributed Convolutional Neural Network (TDC) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) layers to learn temporal relations and output predictions. The second model, TDC-UnPWaveNet, uses a modified WaveNet architecture with a new Channel Distributed layer to capture sequence relationships. Both models are tested on the Grana-Maira catchment in Piemonte, Italy, and show remarkable results. While TDC-LSTM focuses on reducing bias, TDC-UnPWaveNet maximizes correlation and KGE.

The paper uses Deep Learning to predict water table depth using weather images. It proposes two models: one that combines convolutional neural networks with long short-term memory layers, and another that uses a modified WaveNet architecture. The models are tested in Italy and show good results. This is important because it can help us manage water resources better.
