In agriculture, water storage water is stored for later use in natural water sources, such as groundwater aquifers, soil water and natural wetlands, and also small artificial ponds, tanks and reservoirs behind major dams.
Groundwater is located beneath the ground surface in soil pore spaces and in the fractures of rock formations. A unit of rock or an unconsolidated deposit is called an aquifer when it can yield a usable quantity of water. The depth at which soil pore spaces or fractures and voids in rock become completely saturated with water is called the water table. There are two broad types of aquifers: confined and unconfined. An unconfined aquifer is where the surface is not restricted by impervious rocks, so the water table is at atmospheric pressure. In a confined aquifer, the upper surface of water is overlain by a layer of impervious rock, so the groundwater is stored under pressure.
Soil moisture are the water held between soil particles in the root zone of plants, generally in the top 200 cm of soil. Water storage in the soil profile is extremely important for agriculture, especially in locations that rely on rainfall for cultivating plants. For example, in Africa rain-fed agriculture accounts for 95% of farmed land.
Water (chemical formula: H2O) is a transparent fluid which forms the world's streams, lakes, oceans and rain, and is the major constituent of the fluids of organisms. As a chemical compound, a water molecule contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms that are connected by covalent bonds. Water is a liquid at standard ambient temperature and pressure, but it often co-exists on Earth with its solid state, ice; and gaseous state, steam (water vapor). It also exists as snow, fog, dew and cloud.
Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface. It is vital for all known forms of life. On Earth, 96.5% of the planet's crust water is found in seas and oceans, 1.7% in groundwater, 1.7% in glaciers and the ice caps of Antarctica and Greenland, a small fraction in other large water bodies, and 0.001% in the air as vapor, clouds (formed of ice and liquid water suspended in air), and precipitation. Only 2.5% of this water is freshwater, and 98.8% of that water is in ice (excepting ice in clouds) and groundwater. Less than 0.3% of all freshwater is in rivers, lakes, and the atmosphere, and an even smaller amount of the Earth's freshwater (0.003%) is contained within biological bodies and manufactured products. A greater quantity of water is found in the earth's interior.

Need a Long Term Water Storage Preserver? So you hear all over the internet to use some sort of water preserver when storing water long term. Say you have some five gallon water containers and you want to store water for SHTF/Natural Disaster/Emergency/World War 3/Nuclear Attack/EMP/Economic Collapse/Etc. You might feel pressured to use a water preserver. All these prepper sites and doomsday sites have you worried. If you don't use it you could sip your first sweet sip from you stored water and wham! You got the shitz and are gonna die! Not so fast doomsday site, lets take a long hard look at the science here. So your telling me if someone buys a new container, cleans it out with say Dawn soap, rinses it out, fills it with water they just bought at the store (I like spring water), then scr...
You can live for 3 days without water. That makes water one of the most critical items to prep for in an emergency and is often not given the attention it deserves.

It took me forever to purchase enough water in order to feel secure for a reasonable short-term disaster. It's not as fun as buying a a folding knife. Water is boring right? Wrong! If you go without water for even one day, I guarantee you will be trading in all those gadgets and probably alot of money for a drink. I have stored about 68 liters for drinking/cooking. Budgeting 4 liters per day, it comprises 17 days supply. Nearby, I also have the Pacific ocean for bathing, and also a man-made lake for filtering/disinfecting during an extended crisis. These beauties are going back in the closet with a calendar reminder to start rotating/refilling in about 3 months time. Stay fresh, stay hydrated.

Hello everyone. This video is to show those who are beginners and other how to clean and prepare your 55 gallon drums for clean water storage. I am here showing you how to do this as a one man operation. Nothing difficult to do but there are many ways to clean these drums, depending on what was stored in them. Some were used to store pickles, barbecue sauce, animal dog shampoo like mine and the list goes on. You can't open the top like in other type of drums. As you can see they have two round openings and both twist on/off caps brungs have different threading, one larger and thicker and one thinnner. Each one goes into it's specific opening as I demonstrate. This is the brung wrench you need to close and open these brung caps and it makes it so much easier. For those of you who can crea...

Pieter van der Zaag is a professor of integrated water resources management at the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education in Delft, The Netherlands and professor at Delft University of Technology. This talk was presented on Sept. 15, 2016 as part of the Water Institute’s ongoing WaterTalks series. The presentation addresses if alternative ways of increasing water storage capacity exist that minimize negative impacts. Topics covered include: 1) enhanced availability and use of groundwater through soil and water conservation measures and artificial recharge and 2) enhanced storage capacity in dry river beds of seasonal (ephemeral) rivers, through so-called sand dams.
AVEK (Antelope Valley East Kern Water Agency) presented this chart during the public meeting on October 24, 2017, to show the California Drought Monitor for the state.

About this Game "What Hold Your Own is About: You find yourself on an island, starting from scratch while trying to survive. When we launch in Early Access, players will be able to interact with smart and complete AI to claim resources and expand building capabilities. Eventually, we plan to add an extensive quest and storyboard system offering players fun stuff to achieve. We wanted to make a survival game that’s not about feeling like you are on the verge of dying, while fighting off and defending your base. In Hold Your Own it’s easier to find food and water, but AI is harder to kill and coming after you. We want players to have fun, build their base so they can spend their time on fun quests and killing AI." http://store.steampowered.com/app/717790/Hold_Your_Own/ If you liked the vid...

Floodplain restoration presents a promising opportunity to address water resource concerns. Few studies, however, confirm targeted benefits. We evaluated river-floodplain water exchange and phosphorus trapping in natural, reconnected, and disconnected floodplains along the Pocomoke River. Hydrology data from three restored floodplain sites showed similarity to the hydrologic regime of a natural floodplain, and differences from disconnected floodplain sites, and confirmed that levee breaches enhance river-floodplain interactions. Phosphorus sedimentation far exceeded phosphate release from restored floodplain soils, indicating that levee breaches have been successful for improving water quality.

Raven is proud to announce its latest webinar 'Extending the Life of a Rural Water Potable Water Storage Tanks that was held on July 20, sponsored by the National Rural Water Association. This webinar illustrated the following: Rural water districts and entities can face many challenges in securing water for their communities. Aging infrastructure can become a costly hindrance. Join us as we examine 4 real-life case studies, where rural water providers were able to avoid costly replacement of water tanks and long shut-down times in favor of infrastructure rehab. Rehabbing with proven coating applications saved time and money so that water providers could still meet their community's needs.
