Grundwasser |
groundwater aquifer |

Grundwasser |
ground water layer |
|
Grundwasser |
groundwater (Water that occupies pores and crevices in rock and soil, below the surface and above a layer of impermeable material. It is free to move gravitationally, either downwards towards the impermeable layer or by following a gradient) |
|
Grundwasser |
ground water flow |
|
Grundwasser |
ground water level |
|
Grundwasserabstrom |
ground water outflow |
|
Grundwasserabstrom |
watershed leakage |
|
Grundwasseranreicherung |
induced recharge of aquifer |
|
Grundwasserentnahme |
groundwater extraction |
|
Grundwasserentnahme |
groundwater extraction (The process, deliberate or inadvertent, of extracting ground water from a source at a rate so in excess of the replenishment that the ground water level declines persistently, threatening exhaustion of the supply or at least a decline of pumping levels to uneconomic depths) |
|
Grundwasserfluss |
groundwater flow |
|
Grundwassergefährdung |
groundwater endangering |
|
Grundwassergefährdung |
groundwater endangering (Threat to the quality and quantity of groundwater by activities related to the use of land. As some activities (e.g. landfill) present a particular risk of pollution, the closer an activity is to a well or borehole, the greater the risk of the pumped water being polluted. The type of soil, the geology, the rainfall and the amount of water pumped out of the ground must all be taken into consideration) |
|
Grundwasserqualität |
groundwater quality (Groundwater accounts for over 95% of the earth's useable fresh-water resources; over half the world's population depends on groundwater for drinking-water supplies. This invisible resource is vulnerable to pollution and over-exploitation. Effective conservation of groundwater supplies requires the integration of land-use and water management) |

Grundwasserschutz |
groundwater protection (Precautionary actions, procedures or installations undertaken to prevent or reduce harm to the environmental integrity of fresh water found beneath the earth's surface, usually in aquifers, which supply wells and springs) |
