Groundwater control by groundwater lowering
Geological Society, London, Engineering Geology Special Publications, 1986ABSTRACT When an excavation is to extend beneath the water table the ground conditions may be improved by lowering the level of the water table beneath the proposed base of the excavation. Groundwater lowering is accomplished by removing water from the ground at a faster rate than recharge can occur.

Groundwater flows in the pores and fractures of soils and rocks, driven by changing mechanical and environmental boundary conditions, for example air temperature, humidity, and precipitation. Because the groundwater environment continuously changes, the steady--state condition is only a theoretical concept: the movement of water in soils and rocks is ...

Groundwater vulnerability or groundwater pollution risk?
Rendiconti Online della Società Geologica Italiana, 2016This short note presents the complexity behind the definition of groundwater vulnerability and the vulnerability assessment methods. Although intrinsic and specific vulnerability are unanimously accepted concepts, and risk assessments are widely performed to protect groundwater from contamination, the development of new techniques to estimate ...

Groundwater Age and Groundwater Age Dating
Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2008A new way of thinking about groundwater age is changing the field of groundwater age dating. Following a rigorous definition of age, a groundwater sample is seen not as water that recharged the flow regime at a point in the past, but as a mixture of waters that have resided in the subsurface for varying lengths of time.

Groundwater is the most extracted natural resource in the world. It provides more than half of humanity’s freshwater for everyday uses such as drinking, cooking, and hygiene, as well as thirty percent of irrigated agriculture and industrial development.

Groundwater Pricing and Groundwater Markets
2018There are several general principles involved in assessing the economic value of water and the costs associated with its provision. First, an understanding of the costs involved with the provision of water, both direct and indirect, is key. Second, from the use of water, one can derive a value, which can be affected by the reliability of supply, and by

Groundwater resources and characteristics of groundwater basins
International Journal of Water Resources Development, 1988This paper explains the need to plan systematically for the optimal use of groundwater resources in Japan, and describes some of the elements of such a plan. Groundwater extraction has recently been reduced in Japan's largest cities, but major problems, especially of land subsidence and salt intrusion into coastal aquifiers, remain.

Humans abstract two hundred times more groundwater than oil, annually. Ironically, the role of groundwater in water management and supply is underappreciated, partially due to its invisibility. By conducting a literature survey and investigating groundwater information databases, this chapter answers the question: what are the physical and human ...
