New Cave Type: Dried Surface Aquifers

As of snapshot 21w15a, we have 6 different types of caves that generate in game. Spaghetti caves, Noise Caves, Aquifers, those thin pits I always seem to fall into, ravines, and pre 1.17 caves. This already adds a lot more variation, but there could still be more. This is why I suggest we add a new type of Aquifer.

Dried Aquifers

**"**Dried Surface Aquifers" are basically aquifers that you find on the surface, except dried out. This cave type would be kind of rare, but not impossible to find. Grass blocks and dirt would generate deeper into the cave type, almost as if the ground has just sunk deeper into the ground.

I was just to lazy to build with grass blocks on every single top block of the cave.

There is also a chance you can find larger patches of moss and vines growing inside the caves.

Split Dried Aquifer

The "Split Dried Aquifer" (couldn't think of a good name) is just a variation of the Dried Aquifer, and not a separate cave type. It's basically a sideways ravine generating on the surface. You can still find Moss, Grass, and dripstone growing inside of these caves if they have the chance to do so.

Desert Wells Should Spawn Above Flooded Caves or Aquifers in Deserts

I mean, wells in real life suck up water from aquifers beneath. The well should generate with a water tube all the way down to the cave. It also adds to the strategic mining and same theme as azalea trees leading to lush caves. It also adds a use for desert wells. Also make them not generate next to bodies of water

Geology technology and aquifer mapping.

Hello I’m not good with words so I will go straight to the point.

A desert aquifer. Probably different than the aquifer you guys are used to. Our aquifers are very deep. Our land is dry but when it’s rain there nothing stoping or drinking the water. Theres flood patterns of you look on google earth that stretches 400 miles or more. Anyway we have very deep aquifers but no one know exactly how much. They just dig and pump it. I may be getting things mixed up but I recall some don’t want to dig a well and pump it because it’s too deep to reach water.

Questions I have about my topic

Let’s say you have a small submarine equipped with a camera. Being lowered from a well to deep into the aquifer. What will it see? A big cave filled with water or water but it’s mixed with a lot of sediment or something and the submarine can’t go through.

If so that what tech can I use instead of unmanned vehicle? Mabye builed a diving tool equipped with sonar or lidar? I need to extract accurate information about whats deep underground. I think aquifer is easier to navigate without a lot of digging.

What do you guys think? I definitely have a lot of wrong assumptions but I need any lead possible.

Large aquifers should generate on cliffs!

If the new aquifers from the 1.17 snapshots were implemented into the cliffs/mountains of the update, we could have really beautiful waterfalls and rivers flowing down the mountains. Just imagine: you're traveling over the new Mountain Meadow biome and you see the terrain split by a beautiful little river cutting through it. Nearby, you find a waterfall falling over the edge of a cliff. Wouldn't this be a great spot to build a cute little home?

Make lush aquifers lusher

The Problem

Lush caves are full of life, with plenty of vegetation on the ceiling and on the ground. However, that changes when a lush cave biome generates in an aquifer. Even though the ceilings are full of glowberries and moss, the underwater is just stone and some magma.

Current lush cave images:

The Solution

This lack of life in the water doesn't really match the lush cave feel, which is why I think there should be a few changes for lush cave generation in aquifers:

  • The bottom of aquifers is mostly replaced with clay
  • Big Dripleafs generate underwater, growing until they are over water
  • Small Dripleafs generate underwater
  • Seagrass generates
  • Lilypads generate
  • Glowberry vines are longer to light up the water
  • Moss and vines grow along the shores

Upgraded lush cave mockup images:

Bring Life to Aquifers

Aquifers are a great addition in 1.17, but right now, they’re not much more than flooded caves. I would love to see at least some of these aquifers become rare sources of ancient life underground:

  • Cave coral is a variant of coral with a paler (maybe gray and/or brown) appearance. A more primordial version of sea pickles would make aquifers visible.
  • Hostile anglerfish and passive, bottom-dwelling shrimp make life underground unique, but also hazardous.
  • New underground plants spawn around aquifers, but at very low rates. Some of these plants have healing, poison-curing, or even luck-giving properties (for a very brief duration.)

Adding links to these features as I suggest them on Minecraft’s feedback site:

Cave Coral

The Grimfish

Edit: Mojang seems to be opposed to any hostile mobs that exist in real life (ex: alligators,) so maybe the anglerfish could be the grimfish instead and have a slightly modified appearance.

Can we build artificial aquifers?

Since aquifers are just layers of permeable rocks (sandstone, gravel, etc), could we theoretically excavate, say, a patch of unproductive soil, layer it with some permeable rocks, wait for it to rain and recharge naturally, and then have a functioning aquifer for future use?

I've tried googling "artificial aquifers man made" but they only bring up stuff like manmade drainage systems
