aquifers recharge Explanation: http://ga.water.usgs.gov/edu/earthgwaquifer.html One of our most valuable resources is the water beneath our feet - something you can't see and may not even know is there! As you may have read, most of the void spaces in the rocks below the water table are filled with water. But rocks have different porosity and permeability characteristics, which means that water does not move around the same way in all rocks. When a water-bearing rock readily transmits water to wells and springs, it is called an *** aquifer ***. Wells can be drilled into the aquifers and water can be pumped out. *** Precipitation eventually adds water (recharge) into the porous rock of the aquifer ***. Distributed Aquifer Recharge Enhancements in Arid Zones Paper describes a modeling study to explore possible options for enhancing natural recharge. web.mit.edu/vivoni/www/aridzone.html 4.

Conservazione e ricarica delle falde idriche ***La ricarica delle falde idriche comporta la conservazione di acqua nel sottosuolo*** che può essere estratta in tempi posteriori. La ricarica delle falde idriche può essere anche utilizzata per risanare le riserve idriche naturali la cui produzione è in declino, con acqua riciclata. La Melbourne Water attualmente sta indagando varie possibilità relative alla conservazione e alla ricarica delle falde idriche e, se appropriato, userà i risultati per sviluppare strategie per poter conservare ***l´acqua riciclata nel sottosuolo*** per il benefico dellambiene e /o per futuro uso. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs 10 mins (2005-04-03 10:27:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- United States National Ground Water Association ARTIFICIAL RECHARGE OF GROUNDWATER ***Enhanced or artificial recharge systems*** are engineered systems where surface water is put on or in the ground for infiltration and subsequent movement to underlying ground water, or put into wells for direct injection into aquifers.

Aquifer recharge ASR wells are used to replenish water in an aquifer for subsequent use. While an aquifer recharge well is used only to replenish the water in an aquifer, ASR wells are used to achieve two objectives: (1) storing water in the ground; and (2) recovering the stored water (from the same well) for a beneficial use. www.epa.gov/safewater/uic/classv/pdfs/aqr-fact.pdf |
