| dc.description | The objective of this volume, a part of a series providing guidance on groundwater management
and aquifer protection in the Maldives, is to provide guidance on sustainable infiltration
techniques of groundwater recharge by illustrating various options that are suitable for
groundwater recharge. The complete guide aims to provide specific guidance on improving
groundwater based on a number of broad strategies derived from the ‘model’ “Island Climate
Resilient Groundwater Management Plan”.
This guide can be used by practitioners, engineers, planners and policymakers (e.g. Island
Councils) to assist in the process of design, implementation and management of sustainable
groundwater recharge and improvement facilities in the Maldives. It can also be used by
academics for educational purposes and for capacity building and training on methods of
infiltration drainage applicable to low-lying islands of the Maldives, with context-specific
application of the science of groundwater.
The content of this guidance document is mostly self-standing with the references to existing
research, guidance, literature review and international best practices provided. However, this
guide should be used together with practical experience of similar projects in the Maldives and
other small islands. It is recommended that this document be further supplemented with case
studies, design tools etc., for design and implementation of infiltration drainage systems. Even
though this guide can be used by the general public for guidance on options available for
household level infiltration drainage devices, it does not aim to illustrate or explain the
fundamental engineering science of groundwater | en_US |
