Policy Alternatives for the Southern Ogallala Aquifer [PDF]

Due to declining water levels in the Ogallala Aquifer, policy alternatives for extending the life of the aquifer for irrigation and other purposes are evaluated. The study concludes that blanket water conservation policies for the region are likely to be

Renewable energy mapping in Northeastern Morocco: A geographic information system‐based comparison of geothermal, solar, and wind potential in the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen regions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract summarizes a geographic information system (GIS)‐based synthesis of renewable energy resources in Northeastern Morocco, focusing on the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen areas. It visually presents the spatial distribution of solar irradiation and wind energy potential derived from available datasets, alongside their relationship ...

Damage Characteristics and Stress Distribution Law of Overburden Rock in Multiple Mining of Close Coal Seams

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study on close coal seams shows that multi‐seam mining increases the height of the fractured zone from approximately 26 m (single upper‐seam mining) to about 49 m. When the lower seam is mined after the extraction of the upper seam, the heights of both the caved zone and the fractured zone increase by approximately two times.

Use of Hydrogen Energy Storage to Stabilize Solar Power Output With an Energy Efficiency Analysis for European Union Member Countries

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Photovoltaic solar power production can be stabilized using hydrogen energy storage. Gaseous hydrogen is produced, compressed, stored, and consumed in fuel cells to provide a constant power output. ABSTRACT Seasonal energy storage as compressed hydrogen offers a potential solution to balance the power grid as intermittent renewable energy sources are ...

Fracture Development Mechanism of Water‐Isolating Soil Layers During Downward Mining of Shallow‐Buried Coal Seam Groups

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study systematically investigates the fracture development mechanisms of water‐isolating soil layers under the coupled effects of repeated mining and groundwater seepage during the downward mining of shallow‐buried coal seams. The findings provide a theoretical basis for evaluating stratum stability and preventing roof water inrush.

Securing Water in a Changing Climate: A Transient Solar Desalination Model for the Sundarbans, Bangladesh

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents a solar‐powered reverse osmosis (RO) system for the Sundarbans, Bangladesh. Mechanistic modeling reveals a critical seasonal mismatch: during the monsoon, feed water salinity peaks (24.8 ppt) while solar irradiance drops significantly.

Post‐Stimulation Hydraulic Response and Productivity Constraints of a Low‐Productivity Carbonate Geothermal Well in the Small Intramontane Basin, Beijing Piedmont, North China

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Formed ~1.4 Ga, the carbonate reservoir of the Jixian System is a key geothermal reservoir in northern China. Differential basin–mountain evolution since the Cenozoic led to distinct reservoir‐forming histories; consequently, this same reservoir shows marked productivity contrasts between intramontane basins and the large rift Bohai Bay Basin ...

Forecasting Aquifer Parameters Using Artificial Neural Networks

Journal of Porous Media, 2006
This study proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) model to solve an inverse parameter identification problem for groundwater modeling. It is a problem for which the transmissivities can be obtained for given hydraulic heads. ANN may be a useful tool for parameter estimation problems because of its ability to model complex nonlinear relationships ...

Micro–Macro Performance Response Characteristics of Reservoirs in Water‐Bearing Coal Seams After Supercritical CO2 Injection

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
1. The synergistic effects of carbonate mineral dissolution, coal matrix drying/shrinkage, and supercritical CO2 (ScCO2)‐induced organic matter extraction collectively enhance pore/fracture connectivity, thereby significantly improving permeability. 2.

Uncertainty assessment of aquifer hydraulic parameters from pumping test data

Applied Water Science
Data from pumping tests is a noisy process, and therefore, performing the pumping test numerous times will not get the same drawdown values. As a consequence, various pumping experiments lead to different values for aquifer parameter estimates.
