The research subject under consideration reflects the aspects of the underground water kinetics – ground water formed in the upper non-pressure aquifers. The material of the article is of a scientific and methodological nature, it characterizes the essence of the new developed calculation method – to determine the size of the capacity of the fi rst aquifer (the depth of its bottom – the depth of the confining layer. The article reveals the essence of the problem and the ways of its solution – by improving the existing calculation method based on the processing the materials of long-term observations over the regime of ground water depth. Special attention is paid to the presentation of the mathematical basis for the execution of the calculation; its structure and order of execution are given. At the beginning of the substantial part there is given the current state of the matter, the relevance of the theme and its newness that is to use short-term observation over the regime of the groundwater depth. In the final part there is given the analysis of the results of preliminary practical approbation of computational techniques in the Bryansk area – on the specifi c materials of real long-term observations over the regime of the depth of groundwater. In conclusion, the analysis of the research results and recommendations on the use of the developed methodology in the practice of water management and hydraulic engineering construction is given.
