Abstract—Water is an essential element for life. Clean and safe water for daily use is the basic need of
human beings. Some areas contain plenty of water but some areas doesn’t contain plenty of
water. The main reason for this condition is unavailability of ground water with in the required
depth. The technique is to store the water within the aquifer without escaping from it by regulating
the runoff and infiltration of water. Hence, various artificial recharge methods to improving the
ground water table. Consequently enhance human survival and the quality of irrigation sector.
Index Terms—Ground water, Infiltration, Runoff, Aquifer, Porosity and Permeability, etc.
