Answer:

Groundwater is (naturally) recharged by rain water and snowmelt or from water that leaks through the bottom of some lakes and rivers. Groundwater also can be recharged when water supply systems leak and when crops are irrigated with more water than required.

Answer:

When rain falls to the ground, some of it flows along the land surface to streams, rivers or lakes, some moisturizes the ground. Part of this water is used by vegetation; some evaporates and returns to the atmosphere. Part of the water also seeps into the ground, flows through the unsaturated zone and reaches the water table, which is an imaginary surface from where the ground beneath is saturated

Explanation:

That last one is Groundwater: all water found beneath the ground surface in the saturated zone.

Groundwater is contained in what are called ‘aquifers’. An aquifer is a geological formation or part of it, consisting of permeable material capable to store/yield significant quantities of water. Aquifers can consist of different materials: unconsolidated sands and gravels, permeable sedimentary rocks such as sandstones or limestones, fractured volcanic and crystalline rocks, etc.

Groundwater is (naturally) recharged by rain water and snowmelt or from water that leaks through the bottom of some lakes and rivers. Groundwater also can be recharged when water supply systems leak and when crops are irrigated with more water than required. There are also techniques to manage aquifer recharge and increase the amount of water infiltrating into the ground.
