Is South Africa in danger of using up all its groundwater? Extracting too much water can lead to the dewatering effect. This means that the amount of water being extracted exceeds the volumes of water entering theaquiferand thus the water table is lowered. This a common practice in mining, ...
The water present beneath the surface occupying void soil spaces or within the fractures of rock formations is known as groundwater. A common name related to groundwater is an aquifer. An aquifer is a part of the rock or a viscous deposit which provides a usable quantity of water. Groundwat...

(geology) A measure of the capacity of a saturated aquifer to transmit water horizontally. SI units: m²/s. Symbol: T. Transmittance (Physics) The ratio of the radiant energy transmitted to the total radiant energy incident on a given body. Transmittance A transmission Transmittance (physics)...
(engineering) Removal of water from a river, lake, or aquifer. Generalization The act or process of generalizing; the act of bringing individuals or particulars under a genus or class; deduction of a general principle from particulars. Generalization is only the apprehension of the one in the ...
Examples are aquifer solids and suspended matter. How to Measure Alkalinity Measurement of Alkalinity Titration is the process that measures alkalinity. The ‘titrant’ is an acid of known strength added to a volume of a treated sample of water. The volume of acid needed to bring the s...
