Groundbreaking study reveals India's groundwater recharge rates, impacting water security.
Groundwater recharge rates in India were studied from 1996 to 2015. The researchers found that different regions in India have varying rates of groundwater recharge, with the Indus-Ganges-Brahmaputra river basins having higher recharge due to factors like rainfall and irrigation. This study helps us understand how groundwater is replenished in different parts of India, which is important for managing water resources in a sustainable way.
