Contaminant Transport Through Aquitards: A State of the Science Review and Technical Guidance for Aquitard Assessment
Aquifers and aquitards make up groundwater flow systems, with aquitards having much lower permeability than aquifers. Aquitards help protect underlying aquifers, and the water-supply wells completed in them, from contamination. The degree of this protection depends on many factors, including contaminant type, hydrogeologic setting, flow system ...
Enhanced Characterization and Representation of Flow Through Karst Aquifers
Karst subsurface formations host some of the most prolific and economically important aquifers. However, karst aquifers are particularly vulnerable to inadequate or poor groundwater management practices because of rapid recharge and fast groundwater flow through conduits. Although numerical models have been successfully used to predict the ...
Urban Water Resources Toolbox
Holistic but applicable approaches are urgently needed to help plan long-term, cost-effective and sustainable urban water management systems. Groundwater is a central element in the urban water cycle of all cities located on aquifers, yet it remains inadequately integrated into urban water management practices.This book describes holistic ...
Gravitational Systems of Groundwater Flow: Theory, Evaluation, Utilization
This book recognises groundwater flow as a fundamental geologic agent, and presents a wide-ranging and illustrated overview of its history, principles, scientific consequences and practical utilization. The author, one of the founding fathers of modern hydrogeology, highlights key interrelationships between seemingly disparate processes and ...
Numerical Modeling of Isothermal Groundwater and Geothermal Systems: Mass, Solute and Heat Transport
Examining the numerical modeling of sub-surface systems, this comprehensive work studies fluid flow in saturated groundwater-flow and geothermal systems. It compiles and synthesizes the modern features as well as reviews the related solute and heat transport. This forward-looking volume addresses barriers to progress in this area and provides new ...
Remediation Hydraulics
In situ treatments involving the arrangement of contact between prospective reactants in complex porous media require a refined understanding of solute migration. However, the tools and methods used to predict and control fluid movement in the subsurface need significant improvement. Practitioners and regulators must develop novel methods to ...
Groundwater Flow Understanding: From Local to Regional Scale
Any sustainable groundwater development programme requires knowledge of the prevailing flow system extending from local to regional scale. This book of selected papers discusses integral groundwater management with scale flow issues and presents methods for defining, preventing, controlling and mitigating negative environmental impacts related to ...
Groundwater in Fractured Rocks
Comprising 44 chapters by authors from 22 countries, this book focuses on the hydrogeology of fractured environments. This compendium discusses the key issues, methodologies, and techniques in the field of hydrogeology of fractured (hard) rocks, summarizing results achieved in recent years as well as stimulating ideas and considerations on future ...
River Basin Management IV
River basin management is a complex and interdisciplinary issue. It essentially includes river and groundwater flows, quantity and quality of water resources, water and soil interaction, droughts and floods; all these, in a frame of increasing and competing human demands, deterioration of natural resources, climate change, changing public views, ...
