Borewell Recharge and Rain Water Harvesting
This video describes the installation of a small-scale recharge basin via a borehole.

The Nature Conservancy - California’s Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems
This animation shows how groundwater and wetlands change during periods of drought, recharge, and from aquifer pumping. It shows how winter rains create seasonal wetlands and recharge the aquifer, allowing plants easy access to water. Intensive groundwater pumping in nearby wells can lower groundwater levels (aquifer depletion) and deplete the surface water, so less water is available to plants and animals.

Clean Water Webinar: Lessons Learned from the Supreme Court’s Maui Decision
Panelists discuss the history of the County of Maui v. Hawaii Wildlife Fund case, the legal and policy issues at stake, and what the decision might mean for the future of Clean Water Act regulation, permitting, and litigation.

How to Draw a Groundwater Flow Net
This video shows a groundwater flow net being sketched with pencil and paper. The video provides an opportunity to see that drawing a flow net is a process of trial-and-error.

Water found deep underground in Kenya
This video describes the drought-related conditions near Chukana, Kenya and the difficulty of accessing water. The video includes footage of a family digging soil to access groundwater. A nearby aquifer may provide a means to provide a sustainable supply of fresh water.
Dur 3 min
The Rise and Fall of Urban Groundwater
Video describes a study in South Dunedin, New Zealand, where rising sea level results in a corresponding groundwater level rise away from the coast, which can result in flooding (groundwater inundation) and other negative effects.
