New high-tech maps developed by Stanford could fast track groundwater recharge: Here's how it works
Briefly

Researchers at Stanford University are pioneering new technology to enhance groundwater recharge in California, aiming to tackle the state's water crisis. In San Jose, effective management practices have turned historical subsidence issues into an opportunity, allowing the city to halt permanent groundwater-level declines. Using advanced airborne electromagnetic sensors, Stanford's team is working on mapping groundwater resources to expand recharge initiatives across California's Central Valley. This marks a critical step towards achieving more sustainable water management amid local and global climate challenges.
Researchers at Stanford are working on innovative techniques to enhance groundwater recharge in California, potentially revolutionizing water storage without building new reservoirs.
In San Jose, we’ve transformed subsidence threats into opportunities through effective groundwater management strategies that have stopped permanent groundwater-level declines.
