History

World’s preeminent symposium on aquifer recharge.

The International Symposium on Managed Aquifer Recharge (ISMAR) is the world’s preeminent symposium on aquifer recharge through engineered facilities. With the continued unsustainable overuse of groundwater in many areas of the world, managed aquifer recharge (MAR), or the intentional recharge of groundwater aquifers, has become a fundamental tool in our global water management efforts to restore and sustainably manage declining aquifer supplies. MAR as part of an integrated and holistic approach to water management is how the world will develop resilient groundwater supplies in the face of continued growth and change climate.

An international event.

ISMAR 11 marks the return of this world symposium to Southern California, USA. ISMAR started with the first Artificial Recharge of Groundwater Conference in 1988 in Anaheim, convened by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). Since then, ISMAR symposia have been run jointly under the auspices of the ASCE, International Association of Hydrologists (IAH), and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). ISMAR is truly an international event, having been held in Orlando, Fl (1994), Amsterdam (1998), Adelaide, Australia (2002), Berlin (2005), Phoenix, AZ, (2007), Abu Dhabi (2010), Beijing (2013), Mexico City (2016), and Madrid (2019).
