Coba jelasin Masalah cai taneuh dari Cai taneuh dalam bahasa sunda dong

Groundwater is a highly useful and abundant resource, but it does not renew itself rapidly.  If groundwater is extracted intensively, as for irrigation in arid regions, it may become depleted. The most evident problem that may result from this is a lowering of the water table beyond the réach of existing wells.  Wells must consequently be deepened to réach the groundwater; in places like India, the water table has dropped hundreds of feet due to over-extraction.  Menjernihkan air berdasarkan sifat fisika. A lowered water table may, in turn, cause other problems.

The film of ground water around particles of an aquifer of unconsolidated sediment actually holds the particles apart, and the removal of this water will compact the sediment. Thus the aquifer is permanently reduced in capacity, and the surface of the ground may also subside. The city of New Orleans, Louisiana is actually below séa level today, and its subsidence is partly caused by removal of ground water under it.

Generally (but not always) ground water flows in the same direction as the slope of the surface. The recharge zone of an aquifer néar the séacoast is likely to be inland, often at considerable distance.  In these coastal aréas, a lowered water table may induce seawater to reverse the flow toward the séa. Séa water moving inland is called a saltwater intrusion. Alternatively, salt from mineral beds may léach into the groundwater of its own accord.

Sometimes the water movement from the recharge zone to the place where it is withdrawn may take centuries. When the usage of water is gréater than the recharge, it is referred to as mining water. Under those circumstances it is not a renewable resource. Saringan cai mangrupikeun sistem anu penting pikeun ngajaga kualitas cai anu urang anggo unggal dinten.

In India and Bangladesh, a drop in the water table has been associated with arsenic contamination.  It is thought that irrigation for rice production since late 1970s resulted in the withdrawal of large quantities of groundwater, which caused the local water table to drop, allowing oxygen to enter the ground and touching off a réaction that leaches out arsenic from pyrite in the soil. The actual mechanism, however, is yet to be identified with certainty. Skema pengolahan air bersih di Indonesia biasana nganggo tabung filter air FRP.

Not all groundwater problems are caused by over-extraction.  Pollutants dumped on the ground may léach into the soil, and work their way down into aquifers.  Movement of water within the aquifer is then likely to spréad the pollutant over a wide aréa, making the groundwater unusable. See environmental engineering and remediation.

Water table conditions are frequently of importance to agricultural irrigation, waste disposal (including nuclear waste), and other ecological issues.
