Inowas Summer School 2016 On Managed Aquifer Recharge
01796 Pirna
Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) represents the intentional recharge of surface water to aquifers. MAR can be applied for seasonal water storage, restoration of overexploited aquifers, prevention of land subsidence, control of salt water intrusion, improvement of water quality etc. Depending on local conditions and project objectives, aquifer augmentation can be primarly based on infiltration or interception techniques using water from different sources. During the Summer School, the participants will get familiar with different MAR techniques and will be guided through different steps in planing, operation and optimization of MAR schemes.
