a Drawdown measured at the bottom of the Upper Pannonian sequences at the Szentes geothermal field by 2000, and b cross-section showing the groundwater variations from 1970 to 2010, after Bálint and Szanyi (2015) and Szanyi and Kovács (2010). Please note that the original undisturbed water levels approximately agree with the estimated values for 1970. The largest decrease of hydraulic heads in 2000 occurred in the eastern part of the geothermal field, whereas hydraulic recovery of the western area has already started in the mid-1990s. The locations of well K-652 is labeled in a with white, where hydraulic head time series and InSAR-derived ground motions are plotted in Fig. 5
