The 21st century water quality challenges for managed aquifer recharge: towards a risk-based regulatory approach.
Hydrogeology Journal. DOI: 10.1007/s10040-022-02543-z
Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is the purposeful recharge of water to aquifers for subsequent recovery or environmental beneft (IAH 2022). A rigorous environmental and social sustainability assessment of 28 schemes from 21 countries demonstrates that MAR is a sustainable technology (Zheng et al. 2021). This nature-based engineering approach is poised to play an increasingly signifcant role in climate change adaptation through augmenting water supply and environmental fows, and recycling treated wastewater. This essay calls upon hydrogeologists worldwide to rise to the 21st-century water-quality challenges using MAR… read more…
