Decline in Iran’s groundwater recharge [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 Groundwater recharge feeds aquifers supplying fresh-water to a population over 80 million in Iran—a global hotspot for groundwater depletion. Using an extended database comprising abstractions from over one million groundwater wells, springs, and qanats,

Distributed groundwater recharge potentials assessment based on GIS model and its dynamics in the crystalline rocks of South India [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Extensive change in land use, climate, and over-exploitation of groundwater has increased pressure on aquifers, especially in the case of crystalline rocks throughout the world.

Estimating groundwater recharge [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2011 Groundwater recharge is the entry of fresh water into the saturated portion of the subsurface part of the hydrologic cycle, the modifier “saturated” indicating that the pressure of the pore water is greater than atmospheric. Briefly stated, recharge is downward flux across the water table.

Global-scale modeling of groundwater recharge [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007 Abstract. Long-term average groundwater recharge, which is equivalent to renewable groundwater resources, is the major limiting factor for the sustainable use of groundwater. Compared to surface water resources, groundwater resources are more protected from pollution, and their use is less restricted by seasonal and inter-annual flow variations.

Groundwater recharge from heavy rainfall in the southwestern Lake Chad Basin: evidence from isotopic observations [PDF]
Hydrological Sciences Journal, 2021 We examine groundwater recharge processes and their relationship to rainfall intensity in the semi-arid, southwestern Lake Chad Basin of Nigeria using a newly compiled database of stable isotope data (δ2H, δ18O) from groundwater and rainfall.

Using 14C and 3H to understand groundwater flow and recharge in an aquifer window [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014 Knowledge of groundwater residence times and recharge locations is vital to the sustainable management of groundwater resources. Here we investigate groundwater residence times and patterns of recharge in the Gellibrand Valley, southeast Australia, where

Long-term groundwater recharge rates across India by in situ measurements [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Groundwater recharge sustains groundwater discharge, including natural discharge through springs and the base flow to surface water as well as anthropogenic discharge through pumping wells.

An approach to identify urban groundwater recharge [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2010 Abstract. Evaluating the proportion in which waters from different origins are mixed in a given water sample is relevant for many hydrogeological problems, such as quantifying total recharge, assessing groundwater pollution risks, or managing water resources.
