Groundwater recharge occurs every time it rains.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
Groundwater recharge only occurs when soil moisture becomes great enough that the water is able to flow downward by gravity and into the groundwater system. These conditions are more common during the winter and spring when evaporation and transpiration rates are low, thereby allowing the buildup of soil moisture.
