Groundwater means water beneath the surface of the ground located in a saturated zone and in direct contact with the ground or soil.

Man your debark stations.

Efforts to prevent groundwater contamination, however, will still be given higher priority than groundwater treatment.

Where you are sitting now would be under water.

(iv) Studying the Dead Sea recession

Soil erosion, fertility depletion, salinization, waterlogging and the lowering of the groundwater table have also been recognized as important land degradation problems in Malaysia.

Jordan further states that additional damage is likely to have been caused by solid wastes in plastic bags, deposited directly into the lagoon or blown by the wind from the beach, and by the trampling of the coral reef by refugees.

The tracks are elevated about eight feet from the waterline normally, but at that point the water had receded to a level three or four feet below normal.

But when the water goes down they will be able to draw water from those structures throughout the year.

When the water goes down, they know what to do.

These statues, marvelous statues, gives you an idea of water table.

America's massive Ogallala aquifer has fallen so low that many farmers have had to return to less productive dry land farming.

(a) Aquifer means a permeable water bearing geological formation underlain by a less permeable layer and the water contained in the saturated zone of the formation

Aquifer Natural water bearing geological formation found below the surface of the earth.

Groundwater Recharge in the Gaza Strip

(d) Work underwater or underground

If the water table goes down, you will find new stairs.

(7) the protection of surface and groundwaters against depletion and pollution

The IAEA, we believe, can play a significant role in that regard by promoting the use of isotope technology for the protection and management of surface water and groundwater.

Initial Position is Below Horizon

Monitoring groundwater levels, pressures, and quality

Groundwater means all water which is below the surface of the ground in the saturation zone and in direct contact with the ground or subsoil.

In allocating groundwater resources, account should be taken of the amount of groundwater in reserve and of the rate of its replenishment.

Requested Position Below Horizon

It's the number one contaminant of groundwater, drinking water, rain water.

The permeability of the underlying layer is less (lower) than that of the geological formation in the aquifer.

As groundwater should be recognized as a natural resource with economic and ecological value, groundwater strategies should aim at the sustainable use of groundwater and preservation of its quality.

This is called kund. We have, in English, surface water and ground water.

But this is not ground water.

We had a ranch, not a very big one. No plumbing. A little thing out back.

In many populous parts of the world, including the grain growing regions of northern India, northern China, and the American Midwest, farmers are tapping into groundwater to irrigate their crops. The great aquifers that supply water for irrigation are being depleted.

Jordan proposes to remediate the damage to its rangelands by creating and managing 185,000 hectares of rangeland reserves and wildlife reserves in the Eastern Badia.

Such protection measures include, inter alia, monitoring of groundwaters, development of aquifer vulnerability maps, regulations for industry and waste disposal sites paying due account to groundwater protection considerations, geo ecological assessment of the impact of industrial and agricultural activities on groundwaters, and zoning of groundwater protection areas.

States shall specially protect sites where groundwater is withdrawn from or recharged to an aquifer.

Iraq further asserts that Jordan's claim of a reduction in rangeland productivity is based on just two values for productivity in 1983 and in 1993, and that the claim is inappropriately extrapolated from the rangeland productivity claim.

Effective management links land and water uses across the whole of a catchment area or groundwater aquifer.

A couple of sheep herders down at the waterhole, they're driving stakes.

(g) groundwater abstraction facilities, regardless of the use or destination of the water, above 3.5 million cubic metres per year

GIWA focused on environmental aspects of water, comprising surface and ground waters as well as coastal and marine waters.

Below the surface there is hard saline water.

The tears almost start to flow.

ESCWA also focused on the sustainable management of shared groundwater resources, especially in the many countries where groundwater is the main source of water.

56 91. Observer status for the International Hydrographic Organization in the General Assembly

And then from underground to underwater.

In response to the scarcity of water resources, several African countries, particularly those situated in arid and semi arid zones, have drawn up strategies for the preservation of underground water, which is in heavy demand as a result of rapid urbanization and the expansion of farming.
