A ground-water system consists of a mass of water flowing through the pores or cracks below
the Earth's surface. This mass of water is in motion. Water is constantly added to the system by
recharge from precipitation, and water is constantly leaving the system as discharge to surface
water and as evapotranspiration. Each ground-water system is unique in that the source and
amount of water flowing through the system is dependent upon external factors such as rate
of precipitation, location of streams and other surface-water bodies, and rate of
evapotranspiration. The one common factor for all ground-water systems, however, is that the
total amount of water entering, leaving, and being stored in the system must be conserved. An
accounting of all the inflows, outflows, and changes in storage is called a water budget.
