Alnarpsströmmen
Map of Alnarpsströmmen
Alnarpsströmmen is a subterranean aquifer under the Swedish province of Skåne. It has been used for wells since at least the 18th century and as a fresh water source for Malmö since 1901. Several other towns use it today.[1] Due to its artesian character, wells occasionally turn to fountains. About 400 litres of groundwater naturally flow into Öresund from Alnarpsströmmen every second through quaternary moraine.[2] The width of the aquifer is around 20 km, and the flow of the water is just 10 metres a year.[3]
