Artificial recharge of groundwater in The Netherlands

Water Practice and Technology, 2007
After a short general overview of the Dutch drinking water industry, the artificial recharge projects run by three drinking water companies situated in the West of The Netherlands are described in some detail. Because all the other groundwater in this part of the country is brackish, fresh groundwater from the sandy dunes along the coast has been ...

Groundwater use for irrigation - a global inventory [PDF]

, 2010
Irrigation is the most important water use sector accounting for about 70% of the global freshwater withdrawals and 90% of consumptive water uses. While the extent of irrigation and related water uses are reported in statistical databases or estimated by

Engaging stakeholders to strengthen coproduction of knowledge in the Long‐Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) indicator framework

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Rapidly changing agricultural conditions need solutions to address complex decision‐making in an evolving socio‐ecological landscape. One way to accelerate the pace of solution development is by working directly with end users to design potential tools.

Spatial distribution of groundwater recharge and base flow: Assessment of controlling factors

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2015
Study focus: Groundwater is of strategic importance. The accurate estimation of groundwater recharge and assessing the fundamental controlling factors are therefore of utmost importance to protect groundwater systems.

Mid‐Holocene drying of K'gari lakes (subtropical eastern Australia) necessitates re‐evaluation of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation climate links and future drying risk

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Holocene history of Australia's climate is surprisingly poorly understood. This is, in part, because of the relatively weak forcing of Holocene climate versus that of the late Pleistocene. However, it is commonly suggested that eastern Australia dried during the mid‐ to late‐Holocene and that this was in response to increased activity in ...

Impact of recent climate variability on an aquifer system in north Belgium [PDF]

, 2012
The last decade it has been realised that climate and global change can (and very likely will affect) groundwater reserves. This will have impact on both the economical (groundwater exploitation) and ecological (ecosystems) aspects of aquifer systems.

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 ...
