Effects of climate change on depression‐focused groundwater recharge in the Canadian Prairies [PDF]

Vadose Zone Journal, 2021
Small topographic depressions are ubiquitous in the glaciated terrain of the Northern Prairies characterized by a cold semiarid climate. Groundwater recharge in this region is focused in topographic depressions, which receive lateral inputs of snowmelt ...

A Coupled Soil Water Balance Model for Simulating Depression-Focused Groundwater Recharge

Vadose Zone Journal, 2018
In arid and semiarid environments, focused infiltration of rain and snowmelt water under topographic depressions is an important mechanism of groundwater recharge.

Ephemeral Ponds: Are They the Dominant Source of Depression‐Focused Groundwater Recharge? [PDF]

Water Resources Research, 2020
AbstractDepression‐focused recharge is a concept proposed to explain groundwater recharge in the prairie regions of North America. Topographic depressions in this hummocky landscape collect blowing snow and snowmelt, and occasional runoff during rainfall events.

Optimizing groundwater recharge plan in North China Plain to repair shallow groundwater depression zone, China

Journal of Groundwater Science and Engineering, 2023
The North China Plain is one of the main grain producing areas in China. However, over-exploitation has long been unsustainable since the water supply is mainly from groundwater.

Quantifying seasonal, depression focused recharge in the context of public supply well vulnerability

Hydrological Processes, 2023
AbstractDepression focused recharge (DFR) may be a hydrologically important process that impacts the vulnerability of public supply wells, specifically related to pathogenic contaminants. The nature of DFR in glacial moraine environments, such as those located in northern latitudes within North America and Europe, is less well established than in other

Estimation of Infiltration Volumes and Rates in Seasonally Water-Filled Topographic Depressions Based on Remote-Sensing Time Series

Sensors, 2021
In semi-arid ecoregions of temperate zones, focused snowmelt water infiltration in topographic depressions is a key, but imperfectly understood, groundwater recharge mechanism. Routine monitoring is precluded by the abundance of depressions. We have used

Effects of preferential flow on snowmelt partitioning and groundwater recharge in frozen soils [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019
Snowmelt is a major source of groundwater recharge in cold regions. Throughout many landscapes snowmelt occurs when the ground is still frozen; thus frozen soil processes play an important role in snowmelt routing, and, by extension, the timing and ...

The role of changing land use and irrigation scheduling in groundwater depletion mitigation in a humid region

Agricultural Water Management
Many agricultural production regions in the world have been experiencing groundwater resource depletion, which threatens water and food security if mitigation practices are not developed and implemented. To understand how changing land use and irrigation

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Flood hydrological process and its effective control measures in the high-altitude depressions of peak-cluster areas in Lijiang River

Carsologica Sinica
With a length of 83 km and an area of about 624 km2, the high-altitude karst depressions in peak-cluster areas are mainly distributed in the middle reaches of the Lijiang River from Daxu town to Yangshuo county, Guilin. There are thousands of depressions
