Groundwater Recharge Technologies
Journal of Crop Improvement, 2009Groundwater is declining at a very fast rate in the central plain region of Indian Punjab, comprising about 80% area of the state. Consequently, centrifugal pumps, which were earlier being used by farmers for pumping groundwater, are being replaced by costly submersible pumps.

Numerical Modeling for Groundwater Recharge
2021Quantity and quality of groundwater is deteriorating due to various reasons. Assessment of efficiency of artificial recharge structures in recharging the aquifers is essential for sustainable groundwater management. Calibrated groundwater models are essential for accurate estimation of recharge and to assess its spatial and temporal distribution.

The Law of Groundwater Recharge
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2020Groundwater is one of the world’s most important natural resources, and its importance will increase as climate change continues and human population grows. But groundwater has traditionally been governed by lax and uneven legal regimes. To the extent those regimes exist, they tend to focus on the extraction of groundwater rather than the processes ...

2009
Principal aspects of groundwater use and recharge are reviewed in the {perspective} of achieving sustainable groundwater development, i.e. avoiding groundwater degradation. The analysis concerns both major aquifers and well fields and minor aquifers of local importance, such as in islands.

Estimation of groundwater recharge on Jersey
Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1998Abstract There has been growing concern that groundwater abstraction on the island of Jersey may exceed recharge, with the consequent depletion of the island’s finite water resources. A three-year study to determine groundwater recharge through hydrological modelling is nearing completion.

Groundwater Recharge Operations in California
Journal AWWA, 1980The legislative directive contained in the California Water Code dictates that all possible steps be taken to encourage the development of water reclamation facilities to help meet the state's growing water requirements. Groundwater recharge with reclaimed municipal wastewater is an approach to water reuse that results in the planned augmentation of ...

Determination of groundwater recharge with tritium
Journal of Hydrology, 1974Abstract As a result of nuclear weapon tests the tritium content of precipitation in South Africa increased to about 20 Tritium Units in 1958 and to above 50 T.U. in 1963. These two distinct rises in the tritium concentration provide a means of determining the average rate at which moisture percolates through the soil to recharge the groundwater ...

Recharge and groundwater models: an overview
Hydrogeology Journal, 2002Recharge is a fundamental component of groundwater systems, and in groundwater-modeling exercises recharge is either measured and specified or estimated during model calibration. The most appropriate way to represent recharge in a groundwater model depends upon both physical factors and study objectives.

Adaptation, Groundwater Recharge and Livelihood Enhancement: Experiences from Saurashtra Groundwater Recharging Movement [PDF]
International Journal of Rural Management, 2011 An innocuous diversion of rainwater into their farm wells by a few farmers two decades ago has triggered a water-centric social movement popularly known as the Saurashtra groundwater recharging movement in the southwestern part of Gujarat, India. Since irrigation is a socio-technical phenomenon, this paper attempts to capture the social and technical ...

Groundwater recharge: A hydrogeologic thought [PDF]
Water Resources, 2009 The ensuing paper imparts vital information on an important component of the hydrologic cycle: recharge. Water flows through the porous media and forms a definite flow pattern that can be depicted in an elaborate manner through the micro level studies at the small watershed level.
