Mapping groundwater recharge in Africa from ground observations and implications for water security
Groundwater forms the basis of water supplies across much of Africa and its development is rising as demand for secure water increases. Recharge rates are a key component for assessing groundwater development potential, but have not been mapped across ...

Global Recharge Data Set Indicates Strengthened Groundwater Connection to Surface Fluxes
Groundwater is an invaluable global resource, but its long‐term viability as a resource for consumption, agriculture, and ecosystems depends on precipitation recharging aquifers.

Evaluation of drought impact on groundwater recharge rate using SWAT and Hydrus models on an agricultural island in western Japan [PDF]
Clarifying the variations of groundwater recharge response to a changing non-stationary hydrological process is important for efficiently managing groundwater resources, particularly in regions with limited precipitation that face the risk of water ...

Groundwater and baseflow drought responses to synthetic recharge stress tests [PDF]
Groundwater is the main source of freshwater and maintains streamflow during drought. Potential future groundwater and baseflow drought hazards depend on the systems' sensitivity to altered recharge conditions.

We conducted a new approach of mine water‐deep geological storage, the results showed that the hydrogeological feasibility of Baotashan coarse sandstone (BCS) was impressive and useful for real project. The effective porosity of BCS aquifers ranged from 1.36% to 3.46% and the capacity of mine water geological storage was 0.455–1.266 Mm3 for 1 km2 in ...

Abstract Rivers in arid regions often rely on flow generated from wetter regions upstream, leading to high transmission losses of downstream flows. These transmission losses support a range of ecosystems, but partitioning the volume of the transmission losses across the floodplain, riparian zone and in‐channel is difficult.
