Quasi-Saturated Layer: Implications for Estimating Recharge and Groundwater Modeling

open access: yes, 2019
This study presents an extension of the concept of “quasi-saturation” to a quasi-saturated layer, defined as the uppermost dynamic portion of the saturated zone subject to water table fluctuations.

Reconnaissance‐Scale Methods for the Identification of Groundwater Discharge to Streams

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Identifying groundwater discharge locations is critical for understanding and monitoring groundwater contributions to streams in terms of water quantity and quality. Streams and rivers are under increasing strain from factors, including increased urbanization, agricultural land use, groundwater extraction, and climate change, which can alter ...

Temporal Changes In Shallow Groundwater Quality In Northeastern Illinois [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The rapid increase in population and developed land in the Chicago, Illinois, metropolitan area has placed a heavy demand on water resources. The water sources most likely to be developed in this region over the next few decades are shallow aquifers ...

Computationally Efficient Ranking of Sampling Locations by Redundancy in Groundwater Monitoring Networks

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract The long‐term and frequent sampling of groundwater monitoring networks is common practice for monitoring the concentrations of constituents of potential concern (CoPC) over space and time. Sampling can be a costly and time‐intensive process that also incurs health and safety risks. A redundancy‐based ranking of candidate sampling locations can

Delivering Sulfate to LNAPL Body for Enhanced Source Zone Depletion (ESZD)

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract This field pilot study evaluates the feasibility of applying sulfate to a light non‐aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL) body for achieving enhanced source zone depletion (ESZD) at a refinery site. Two rounds of gypsum land application (GLA) delivered sulfate to an 8000 ft2 area encompassing LNAPL‐containing monitoring wells MW‐2 and MW‐3, while MW‐1 ...

Plant endemism of the Balkan high‐mountain fens: a community‐level synthesis and their climate change perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Balkan high‐mountain fens harbour unique endemic plant communities, with a west‐to‐east compositional gradient and local richness primarily shaped by palaeoclimate. As these fens have already experienced drier, warmer summers than at present, they may withstand climate change if actively and effectively protected. Abstract The phenomenon of Balkan high‐

Disturbance legacies in arid environments shape recovery of former agricultural land

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Increasingly, arid agricultural land is being permanently taken out of irrigated production due to more frequent drought, higher temperatures, and the overconsumption of groundwater, with important ramifications for ecological recovery.

Assessing the potential of managed aquifer recharge using rooftop rainwater harvesting with shallow wells in peri-urban communities in Kumasi, Ghana

open access: yesDiscover Water
In many cities worldwide, groundwater levels have declined significantly due to climate change and increased water demand, necessitating artificial recharge.
