Paleo-modeling of coastal saltwater intrusion during the Holocene: an application to the Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
Coastal groundwater reserves often reflect a complex evolution of marine transgressions and regressions, and are only rarely in equilibrium with current boundary conditions.

Identification of Metal Contamination Sources and Evaluation of the Anthropogenic Effects in Soils near Traffic-Related Facilities

open access: yesToxics, 2021
Traffic-related facilities typically have much lower metal emissions than other sources; however, they can be numerous and widespread as well. Subdividing pollution sources is necessary to assess soil contamination characteristics and identify sources ...

Groundwater quality [PDF]

open access: yesWater Environment Research, 2020
AbstractGroundwater is a vital component of water supply for residential, industrial, and agricultural purposes. However, many groundwater basins are being used unsustainably and groundwater contamination is a growing water quality problem. Although anthropogenic activities and natural processes have been increasing the contamination in this valuable ...

Deep learning shows declining groundwater levels in Germany until 2100 due to climate change

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
In this study we investigate how climate change will directly influence the groundwater resources in Germany during the 21st century. We apply a machine learning groundwater level prediction approach based on convolutional neural networks to 118 sites ...

A Coupled Hydro‐Mechanical Modeling Framework to Concurrently Simulate Coal Seam Gas Induced Subsidence and Groundwater Impacts

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Land subsidence has been extensively studied and modeled in the context of conventional petroleum or water extraction. New challenges arise to model subsidence caused by coal seam gas (CSG) depressurization. CSG‐induced subsidence is a result of multiple
