Groundwater is used to meet almost half of the global freshwater demand for domestic and agricultural use. Hydrological investigations to assess groundwater resources and to develop sustainable management strategies require a variety of scientific information, including the occurrence and rate of aquifer recharge. This publication explains the chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) technique for dating groundwater, including its scientific basis, sampling and measurement methods, interpretation and limitations of data, and a variety of case studies. It is intended to facilitate a comparative analysis of the CFC and isotope techniques and a wider use of the CFC technique under appropriate conditions.
