In this study, a physically based spatially distributed method to evaluate groundwater recharge potential at catchment scale was developed and tested in the aforementioned Jequitiba River basin. The data for the test was compiled from institutional sources and implemented in a Geographic Information System. It comprised meteorological, hydrometric, relief, land use, and soil data. The average results resembled the annual recharge calculated by a hydrograph method, which worked as validation method. The spatial variation of recharge highlighted the predominant contribution of flat areas, porous aquifers, and forested regions to groundwater recharge. They also exposed the negative effect of urbanization. In combination, these factors elected the following sectors of the Jequitiba River basin as regions of high recharge potential: the south-southeast part of the headwaters in Prudente de Morais; Sete Lagoas towards the central part of the basin; and the region between Funil\u00e2ndia and Jequitiba, near the Jequitiba river mouth. Some management practices were suggested to improve groundwater recharge. The map of groundwater recharge potential produced in this study is valuable and is therefore proposed as tool for planners in the sustainable use of groundwater and protection of recharge areas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/su11102955","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,24]],"date-time":"2019-05-24T11:20:46Z","timestamp":1558696846000},"page":"2955","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":50,"title":["Groundwater Recharge Potential for Sustainable Water Use in Urban Areas of the Jequitiba River Basin, Brazil"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Adriana","family":"da Costa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal University of Minas Gerais, 6620 Ant\u00f4nio Carlos Ave., Pampulha, Belo Horizonte, MG 31270-901, Brazil"}]},{"given":"Hugo","family":"de Salis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Federal University of Minas Gerais, 6620 Ant\u00f4nio Carlos Ave., Pampulha, Belo Horizonte, MG 31270-901, Brazil"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5872-4816","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Viana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa Maize and Sorghum), Sete Lagoas, MG 35701-97, Brazil"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2399-5261","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fernando","family":"Leal Pacheco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CQVR\u2014Chemistry Research Centre, University of Tr\u00e1s-os-Montes and Alto Douro, Quinta de Prados Ap. 1013, 5001-801 Vila Real, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1068","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1128845","article-title":"Global hydrological cycles and world water resources","volume":"313","author":"Oki","year":"2006","journal-title":"Science"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S31","DOI":"10.1016\/S0959-3780(99)00017-5","article-title":"Climate change and global water resources","volume":"9","author":"Arnell","year":"1999","journal-title":"Glob.
