  2. Groundwater recharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_recharge

    Water balance. Groundwater recharge or deep drainage or deep percolation is a hydrologic process, where water moves downward from surface water to groundwater. Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer. This process usually occurs in the vadose zone below plant roots and is often expressed as a flux to the water table ...

  3. Water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cycle

    Water cycle showing human influences and major pools (storages) and fluxes. [19] The water cycle describes the processes that drive the movement of water throughout the hydrosphere. However, much more water is "in storage" (or in "pools") for long periods of time than is actually moving through the cycle.

  4. Aquifer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquifer

    Groundwater recharge or deep drainage or deep percolation is a hydrologic process, where water moves downward from surface water to groundwater. Recharge is the primary method through which water enters an aquifer.

  5. Groundwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater

    Groundwater is fresh water located in the subsurface pore space of soil and rocks.It is also water that is flowing within aquifers below the water table.Sometimes it is useful to make a distinction between groundwater that is closely associated with surface water, and deep groundwater in an aquifer (called "fossil water" if it infiltrated into the ground millennia ago [8]).

  6. Deep water cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_water_cycle

    Water carried into the mantle eventually returns to the surface in eruptions at mid-ocean ridges and hotspots. [8] This circulation of water into the mantle and back is known as the deep water cycle or the geologic water cycle. [9] [10] [11] [5] Estimates of the amount of water in the mantle range from 1 ⁄ 4 to 4 times the water in the ocean ...

  8. Infiltration basin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infiltration_basin

    Recently completed infiltration basin for stormwater collection. An infiltration basin (or recharge basin) is a form of engineered sump [1] or percolation pond [2] that is used to manage stormwater runoff, prevent flooding and downstream erosion, and improve water quality in an adjacent river, stream, lake or bay.

  9. Drainage equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_equation

    One would not want the water table to be too shallow to avoid crop yield depression nor too deep to avoid drought conditions. This is a subject of drainage research. The figure shows that a seasonal average depth of the water table shallower than 70 cm causes a yield depression [5] The figure was made with the SegReg program for segmented ...
