In dry years like the one we are experiencing now, surface water becomes scarce, and we rely on these aquifers to make up some of the difference. Researchers like Helen Dahlke at UC Davis believe that recharging this groundwater is an important part to a more sustainable future. This could include flooding orchards during dormancy.
