Ground-water resources of Collier County, Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 1962
The Biscayne Aquifer is the principal source of water for the heavily populated area in the vicinity of West Palm Beach and Miami. The publication of this data is timely and will assist in the intelligent development of the water resources of the area.

Managed Aquifer Recharge as a Tool to Enhance Sustainable Groundwater Management in California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A growing population and an increased demand for water resources have resulted in a global trend of groundwater depletion. Arid and semi-arid climates are particularly susceptible, often relying on groundwater to support large population centers or ...

Legitimacy in polycentric groundwater governance: Framework conditions identified in Nebraska's Natural Resource Districts

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
Abstract This study considers how and why agricultural groundwater users would limit their own water consumption. We find that voluntary governance arrangements are based on a form of legitimacy that stems from informal social processes. Agricultural irrigation reform in Nebraska, U.S.

The geodynamic and limnological evolution of Balkan Lake Ohrid, possibly the oldest extant lake in Europe

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 1-26, January 2023., 2023
Studies of the upper 447 m of the DEEP site sediment succession from central Lake Ohrid, Balkan Peninsula, North Macedonia and Albania provided important insights into the regional climate history and evolutionary dynamics since permanent lacustrine conditions established at 1.36 million years ago (Ma).

Customized Statistically Downscaled CMIP5 and CMIP6 Projections: Application in the Edwards Aquifer Region in South‐Central Texas

open access: yesEarth's Future
Climate projections are being used for decision‐making related to climate mitigation and adaptation and as inputs for impacts modeling related to climate change. The plethora of available projections presents end users with the challenge of how to select

Analysis of the Evolution Law of Mining‐Induced Water Flowing Fracture of Composite Hard Roof in the Border Mining Area of Inner Mongolia and Shaanxi

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Multiple research methods were employed to analyze the fracture characteristics and migration patterns of the two thick layers of pressurized water‐bearing sandstone commonly found in the mining area bordering Inner Mongolia and Shaanxi, further elucidating the evolution characteristics of mining‐induced water‐conducting fissures.

Predictability of hydraulic head changes and characterization of aquifer‐system and fault properties from InSAR‐derived ground deformation

open access: yes, 2014
We evaluate the benefits of space‐derived ground deformation measurements for basin‐wide characterization of aquifer‐system properties and groundwater levels.

Degradation and Migration Characteristics and Water‐Inrush Mechanism of Overburden Roof Under High‐Intensity Mining

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
By conducting a comparable simulation experiment, this work monitors the stress and strain data of the key stratum post‐coal extraction, investigates the positioning of the separated layer following roof caving, and conducts a comprehensive analysis of the water inrush patterns and mechanisms induced by the separated layer damage under high‐intensity ...

Impact of background flow on dissolution trapping of carbon dioxide injected into saline aquifers [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
While there has been a large interest in studying the role of dissolution-driven free convection in the context of geological sequestration, the contribution of forced convection has been largely ignored. This manuscript considers CO$_2$ sequestration in saline aquifers with natural background flow and uses theoretical arguments to compute the critical

Initial in situ measurements of perennial meltwater storage in the Greenland firn aquifer

open access: yes, 2014
A perennial storage of water in a firn aquifer was discovered in southeast Greenland in 2011. We present the first in situ measurements of the aquifer, including densities and temperatures. Water was present at depths between ~12 and 37 m and amounted to
