Estimating groundwater recharge

Choice Reviews Online, 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.

Estimation of groundwater recharge response from rainfall events in a semi-arid fractured aquifer: Case study of quaternary catchment A91H, Limpopo Province, South Africa

Cogent Engineering, 2019
This study estimated groundwater recharge response from rainfall events in a semi-arid fractured aquifer. This is crucial as recharge response has an influence on available groundwater in an aquifer.
