Los intercambios de agua entre los depósitos de agua superficial y los acuíferos son importantes. Los ríos usualmente empiezan como pequeños arroyos y aumentan el caudal a medida que fluyen hacia el mar. El agua que ellos ganan frecuentemente viene del agua subterránea. Esta corriente se denomina corriente ganante. Es posible que las corrientes viertan agua al subsuelo en algunos puntos. En estos casos, los acuíferos son rellenados o recargados por agua de corrientes de pérdida. Un arroyo que fluye cerca de la superficie de un acuífero perderá agua hacia el acuífero si la superficie de agua del arroyo es más alta que la capa de agua del acuífero en la tierra adyacente. 4, record 1, Spanish, - corriente%20afluente
