Currently, the demand for water is rising, and as a result, the groundwater is declining. Water supplies are not sufficient for agricultural productivity, environmental preservation, or ecosystem services, resulting in an unbalanced water budget in the ...

Accurate and efficient calculation of response times for groundwater flow
We study measures of the amount of time required for transient flow in heterogeneous porous media to effectively reach steady state, also known as the response time. Here, we develop a new approach that extends the concept of mean action time.

Numerical modelling in support of a conceptual model for groundwater flow and geochemical evolution in the southern Outaouais Region, Quebec, Canada [PDF]
A two-dimensional vertical-section numerical model for groundwater flow and transport using age, tritium and chloride was used to help validate a conceptual model of geochemical evolution within a representative regional-scale hydrogeological system in ...

Artificial recharge of groundwater in The Netherlands
After a short general overview of the Dutch drinking water industry, the artificial recharge projects run by three drinking water companies situated in the West of The Netherlands are described in some detail. Because all the other groundwater in this part of the country is brackish, fresh groundwater from the sandy dunes along the coast has been ...

ABSTRACT Rising water temperatures driven by climate change threaten culturally and economically important salmonid fisheries throughout the Upper Midwest. Unsuitable thermal regimes degrade the effectiveness of habitat restoration projects in the region, thus strategies for mitigating peak summer stream temperatures are of interest to state and non ...

Impact of recent climate variability on an aquifer system in north Belgium [PDF]
The last decade it has been realised that climate and global change can (and very likely will affect) groundwater reserves. This will have impact on both the economical (groundwater exploitation) and ecological (ecosystems) aspects of aquifer systems.

Artificial recharge – measurement of soil infiltration in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential for infiltration in a study area – Rožnov pod Radhoštěm, the Czech Republic. The results are important for the future design of an artificial recharge structure as a method to store water underground

Determining Regional-Scale Groundwater Recharge with GRACE and GLDAS
Groundwater recharge (GR) is a key component of regional and global water cycles and is a critical flux for water resource management. However, recharge estimates are difficult to obtain at regional scales due to the lack of an accurate measurement ...
