Managed Aquifer Recharge as a Tool to Enhance Sustainable Groundwater Management in California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A growing population and an increased demand for water resources have resulted in a global trend of groundwater depletion. Arid and semi-arid climates are particularly susceptible, often relying on groundwater to support large population centers or ...

Impact of climate change on renewable groundwater resources : assessing the benefits of avoided greenhouse gas emissions using selected CMIP5 climate projections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to minimize climate change requires very significant societal effort. To motivate this effort, it is important to clarify the benefits of avoided emissions. To this end, we analysed the impact of four emissions

A method to estimate groundwater recharge [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Malaysia, 2003
The conventional method of groundwater recharge estimation is reviewed and a computer program to ease the estimation is presented. The calculation takes into account precipitation, evaporation, soil moisture and the resultant recharge. The validity of the program is tested against MORECS data. An assessment of recharge to aquifer system in Langat river
