Explanation:
Groundwater is recharged naturally by rain and snow melt and to a smaller extent by surface water (rivers and lakes). ... Recharge can help move excess salts that accumulate in the root zone to deeper soil layers, or into the groundwater system. Tree roots increase water saturation into groundwater reducing water runoff.

Answer:
The rainwater and water from other sources such as rivers and ponds etc seeps through the soil and fills the empty spaces and cracks deep below the ground. The process of seeping of water into the ground is called infiltration.The groundwater is recharged through this process.
