| description abstract | A 0.20‐ha (0.5‐acre) recharge basin was tested for conserving storm runoff that collected in a 16‐ha (40‐acre) playa in the Southern High Plains. The basin was constructed by removing 1.2 m (4 ft) of soil to expose permeable sediments. Turbid water was pumped from the playa to the basin during eight tests over a 7‐yr interval. Average recharge rate during 187 days of flooding was 0.373 m/d (1.22 ft/day). After three recharge tests during the first year, no maintenance was done to the basin bottom. Our research showed that recharge basins could be an effective technique for partially replenishing the depleted Ogallala Aquifer. | |
