What Is Groundwater?
There is more fresh water stored underground in Northern California than is accessible from surface water sources, such as lakes, rivers and streams. To understand just how essential groundwater is, we’ll need to learn about how it is stored in the earth, how we bring it to the surface, and how it interacts with surface water. North Bay Bountiful explores the science of groundwater.

What is Groundwater?
The Earth is 70 % water. However, only 3% of this water is freshwater. Much of this freshwater is frozen in glaciers, you will find some of the water in rivers and streams, and almost 30% of this freshwater is groundwater.
But What is groundwater? Groundwater is water that finds it way between the gaps of rocks and sediments underground.
As the water seeps into the ground it may find it’s way into an aquifer. Aquifers are underground rock layers saturated with groundwater. An aquifer is not an underground river but large porous layers of rock.

Worksafe BC video: https://youtu.be/kluzvEPuAug
Next time you see a dam, retaining wall, caisson, or any other subsurface construction, there’s a good chance that engineers have had to consider how groundwater will affect the stability. Even though you’d never know they’re there, some combination of drains and cutoffs were probably installed to keep the structure (and the people around it) safe and sound.

Groundwater
For an introductory college-level physical geology class: a review of how groundwater contributes to freshwater supplies, how it moves through aquifers, and how it is impacted by the permeability and porosity of the ground. We also discuss what happens when wells are drilled into aquifers of varying kinds and the results of over pumping of water. We end with a comparison with oil and gas migration. In particular, we review the consequences of porosity and permeability of under-surface rocks on oil and gas reservoirs, including a brief review of hydraulic fracturing or "fracking."
Content within is based on information available in any standard introductory college geology textbook, such as Essentials of Geology -- Tarbuck and Lutgens -- Pearson Publishing.

How Wells & Aquifers Actually Work
Correcting the misconceptions that abound around water below the ground
The bundle deal with Curiosity Stream has ended, but you can still get a great discount on Nebula and support Practical Engineering here: https://go.nebula.tv/practical-engineering
It is undoubtedly unintuitive that water flows in the soil and rock below our feet. This video covers the basics of groundwater engineering, including how wells are built, how injection wells work, and how aquifers interact with surface water features.
Errata: Deep well jet pumps exist that can lift water greater than 100' using an ejector and two pipes.

Why America’s Groundwater Is Disappearing | WSJ
Unchecked groundwater use is draining aquifers across the U.S., threatening drinking water supplies and the nation’s status as a food superpower. For example, the Ogallala Aquifer beneath the Great Plains supports about 30% of all U.S. crop and animal production, but in 2022, parts of the water table reached their lowest levels since NASA started measuring two decades ago.
WSJ explains why this crisis is posing an “existential threat” to many communities and looks at how the critical natural resources could be saved.

0:33 Importance of groundwater in Kansas

It's called groundwater!
Groundwater is an important source of fresh water for industries, municipalities, farms, and rural homeowners in British Columbia. BC operates a network of over 180 observation wells to track groundwater levels in areas of high use. This information helps us to see how healthy aquifers are so we can make good decisions about groundwater use in BC.

Next time you see a dam, retaining wall, caisson, or any other subsurface construction, there’s a good chance that engineers have had to consider how groundwater will affect the stability. Even though you’d never know they’re there, some combination of drains and cutoffs were probably installed to keep the structure (and the people around it) safe and sound.

For an introductory college-level physical geology class: a review of how groundwater contributes to freshwater supplies, how it moves through aquifers, and how it is impacted by the permeability and porosity of the ground. We also discuss what happens when wells are drilled into aquifers of varying kinds and the results of over pumping of water. We end with a comparison with oil and gas migration. In particular, we review the consequences of porosity and permeability of under-surface rocks on oil and gas reservoirs, including a brief review of hydraulic fracturing or "fracking."
Content within is based on information available in any standard introductory college geology textbook, such as Essentials of Geology -- Tarbuck and Lutgens -- Pearson Publishing.
**This video comes near the end of the semester, so there may be terms with which the audience is unfamiliar. For a full playlist, refer to the Geology playlist on the Earth Rocks! YouTube Channel.
