STRATIFIED ADAPTATION: Infrastructure, Elevation, and Cascading Floods in the Urban Mekong Delta

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Flood‐prone cities in the global South are increasingly the target of infrastructure projects aimed at building climate ‘resilience’. At the same time, residents of these cities take adaptation to flooding into their own hands. In this article we examine the interrelationship between household‐scale and urban‐scale flood mitigation projects in

Layered Radial Aquifer Model for Open‐Pit Mine Closure with Managed Aquifer Recharge

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
A radially symmetric layered aquifer model (unconfined–aquitard–confined) coupled to a pit‐lake water balance is developed to screen managed aquifer recharge (MAR) after open‐pit mine closure. Dimensionless type curves quantify trade‐offs between pit recovery time, pumping/recycling, and unconfined mounding as functions of aquifer time scales, aquitard

Focused groundwater recharge is controlled by landscape and climate

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Focused groundwater recharge, the concentrated infiltration of water through surface features including streams, depressions, or fractures to the water table, is accepted as the dominant recharge mechanism in arid climates.

Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...

Geospatial and AHP based identification of potential zones for groundwater recharge in Haridwar District of India

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
Demarcation of the groundwater recharge prospective zones can be the foremost step in facilitating groundwater recharge in any terrain, as most nations have a major concern about unreasonable use of groundwater and declining the water table.

Managing Saline Groundwater Impacts from Irrigation - Designing and Testing Emissions Trading in Coleambally Irrigation Area [PDF]

open access: yes
Irrigated agriculture often leads to recharge to local and regional groundwater systems greater than what the systems can absorb, resulting in the development of shallow watertables causing salinity and waterlogging.
