groundwaterpond
A groundwater pond is a pond whose water source is primarily groundwater discharge, such as seepage from the surrounding aquifer or water emerging from springs, rather than direct rainfall or runoff. These ponds are often termed groundwater-fed or spring-fed ponds and can occur in a variety of landscapes, including karst terrain, glaciated regions, and areas with permeable soils.
Formation and hydrology: Groundwater ponds form where the water table intersects the land surface or where
Ecology: The stable conditions of groundwater ponds can support distinctive ecological communities. They often harbor plant
Human interactions and conservation: Groundwater ponds intersect with groundwater management, land use planning, and water quality
