AI overview

I cannot provide an accurate overview based solely on the provided context, as it only contains an image caption about a water project in Nepal rather than information about hydrogeology itself. To write an accurate overview of what hydrogeology is and why it matters, I would need source material that actually defines and discusses hydrogeology.

AI-generated from the Wikipedia summary — may contain errors.
