  7. Groundwater recharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_recharge

    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 surface. Groundwater recharge also encompasses water moving away from the water table farther into the saturated zone. [1]

    The term 'ground freezing' is used: a. when a section of ground is reduced in temperature either to stabilise the structure e.g. when underground water flow prevents mining or tunnel construction. b. to store cold energy for subsequent use in air conditioning or other cooling.

  9. Groundwater banking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_banking

    This is helping to save more groundwater because the water stays in the aquifer to be used later. [3] Direct recharge is storing water by allowing it to percolate directly to storage in the groundwater basin. [1] With direct recharge it floods an area so that water seeps through the ground to get to the aquifers. [3]
