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

Artificial recharge of groundwater: hydrogeology and engineering [PDF]
Hydrogeology Journal, 2002 Artificial recharge of groundwater is achieved by putting surface water in basins, furrows, ditches, or other facilities where it infiltrates into the soil and moves downward to recharge aquifers. Artificial recharge is increasingly used for short- or long-term underground storage, where it has several advantages over surface storage, and in water ...

A method to estimate groundwater recharge [PDF]
Bulletin 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
