The rising water demand worldwide caused by climate change, urbanization and population expansion, poses increasing stress on groundwater as a resource. Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) which is considered as one of the promising groundwater engineering approaches to water security especially in drought-occurring areas. As MAR techniques involve the intentional storage of water into an aquifer for subsequent recovery or for environmental benefits, considerable amount of research work in recent years has been carried out to alleviate the water crises as well as other related purposes. The objective of this paper is to present a review of MAR in terms of historical development, current situation and perspectives including demonstrating how promising the MAR is an approach. The review shows that the concept of MAR may have stemmed from early development of human society over two thousand years. The achievement of MAR is reviewed alongside its technologies, developed process for the implementation of MAR, as well as the applications in various fields. This review also identifies the common problems and challenges that render MAR's concept failure to be applicable in some settings. The reviewed literature has shown that MAR is expected to be increasingly applied in a wider range of scopes. Based on such conclusion, in this paper, it is recommended that further studies on MAR should focus on systematic clogging mechanism and prevention, the theory of seepage calculation, theory of infiltration for MAR, purification mechanism, and application of big data and artificial intelligence in MAR.

由气候变化，城市化和人口扩张引起的全球用水需求上升，对地下水作为一种资源的压力越来越大。受控含水层补给（MAR）被认为是实现水安全的有希望的地下水工程方法之一，特别是在干旱地区。由于MAR技术涉及将水蓄意蓄积到含水层中以用于随后的回收或对环境有益，因此近年来为减轻水危机以及其他相关目的已经进行了大量的研究工作。本文的目的是从历史发展，当前状况和观点等方面对MAR进行综述，包括证明MAR是一种有前景的方法。审查表明，MAR的概念可能源于人类社会两千多年的早期发展。回顾MAR的成就及其技术，MAR实施的开发过程以及在各个领域的应用。这篇评论还指出了导致MAR概念失败在某些情况下适用的常见问题和挑战。回顾的文献表明，MAR有望在更广泛的范围内得到越来越多的应用。基于这样的结论，在本文中，建议对MAR的进一步研究应集中在系统性的堵塞机理和预防，渗流计算理论，MAR的渗透理论，净化机理以及大数据和人工智能的应用方面。 3月
