Effects of climate change on depression‐focused groundwater recharge in the Canadian Prairies [PDF]
Small topographic depressions are ubiquitous in the glaciated terrain of the Northern Prairies characterized by a cold semiarid climate. Groundwater recharge in this region is focused in topographic depressions, which receive lateral inputs of snowmelt ...

A Coupled Soil Water Balance Model for Simulating Depression-Focused Groundwater Recharge
In arid and semiarid environments, focused infiltration of rain and snowmelt water under topographic depressions is an important mechanism of groundwater recharge.

The North China Plain is one of the main grain producing areas in China. However, over-exploitation has long been unsustainable since the water supply is mainly from groundwater.

In semi-arid ecoregions of temperate zones, focused snowmelt water infiltration in topographic depressions is a key, but imperfectly understood, groundwater recharge mechanism. Routine monitoring is precluded by the abundance of depressions. We have used

Assessment of the development of aquifer management councils (COTAS) for sustainable groundwater management in Guanajuato, Mexico [PDF]
Collective groundwater management by water users—self-regulation—is increasingly advocated as a complement to state regulation. This article analyzes the attempts by the Guanajuato State Water Commission (CEAG) in central Mexico to promote user self ...

Effects of preferential flow on snowmelt partitioning and groundwater recharge in frozen soils [PDF]
Snowmelt is a major source of groundwater recharge in cold regions. Throughout many landscapes snowmelt occurs when the ground is still frozen; thus frozen soil processes play an important role in snowmelt routing, and, by extension, the timing and ...

Hydrochemical determination of source water contributions to Lake Lungo and Lake Ripasottile (central Italy) [PDF]
Lake Lungo and Lake Ripasottile are two shallow (4-5 m) lakes located in the Rieti Basin, central Italy, that have been described previously as surface outcroppings of the groundwater table.

Storm-water infiltration and focused recharge modeling with finite-volume two-dimensional Richards equation: application to an experimental rain garden [PDF]
Rain gardens are infiltration systems that provide volume and water quality control, recharge enhancement, as well as landscape, ecological, and economic benefits.

From traditional to modern water management systems; reflection on the evolution of a ‘water ethic’ in semi-arid Morocco [PDF]
The chapter focuses on water because of the crucial importance of that resource in a semiarid country and because the ways in which it has been managed throughout centuries illustrate the changes in socio-political structures in the society. The focus on
