The Groundwater Project

The Groundwater Project — Education for Children

This international hydrogeology nonprofit publishes free, peer-reviewed groundwater books and videos for young learners, including a multilingual picture book and an "Ask Professor Água" video series. It sits alongside the organization's much larger open-access technical library, which also serves as accurate teacher background reading on groundwater.

What you will find there

Our take

This offers free, rigorous groundwater science that is useful both as a student reader and as teacher background reading. The children's section is thin compared with the organization's much larger library aimed at hydrogeology professionals, so it works best as a supplement rather than a full unit.
