Constructing a cave sediment stratigraphy for the Dachstein Massif sheds light on landscape evolution (Eastern Alps)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Five large Alpine cave systems on the Dachstein (Austria) were investigated and 35 sediment profiles or outcrops between 860 m a.s.l. and 1945 m a.s.l. were analysed. An altitude‐dependent overall stratigraphy is established and depositional conditions and palaeo‐environments are reconstructed.

Assessment of Groundwater Recharge in Agro-Urban Watersheds Using Integrated SWAT-MODFLOW Model

open access: yes, 2020
Numerical models are employed widely to evaluate the hydrological components of a watershed but, traditionally, watershed models simplify either surface or subsurface flow module.

Intensive rainfall recharges tropical groundwaters [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2015
Dependence upon groundwater to meet rising agricultural and domestic water needs is expected to increase substantially across the tropics where, by 2050, over half of the world’s population is projected to live. Rare, long-term groundwater-level records in the tropics indicate that groundwater recharge occurs disproportionately from heavy rainfalls ...

Overview of geothermal resource exploration and development in North Africa

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This article reviews geothermal exploration in North Africa, highlighting key activities, government policies, and exploration findings across Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt. The region's substantial geothermal potential, driven by tectonic activity, positions it to play a significant role in the global geothermal energy ...

Implications of using On-Farm Flood Flow Capture to recharge groundwater and mitigate flood risks along the Kings River, CA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Two large hydrologic issues face the Kings Basin, severe and chronic overdraft of about 0.16M ac-ft annually, and flood risks along the Kings River and the downstream San Joaquin River.

Where do we expect to find deep plant roots?

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Plant roots have been observed up to 70 m in depth – what would compel a plant to root so deeply? Earlier work shows that the climate, soil and drainage all affect rooting depth, but with conflicting results. For example, both the deepest and shallowest roots are found in arid regions.

Groundwater resource modelling for public water supply management in London [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In London, groundwater abstractions for public supply are predominantly from the Chalk aquifer. However, water resource pressures put existing abstractions at risk and often require complex analysis to support new source development.

A stepwise process for actionable environmental science research

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Scholars have long recognized the social dimensions of environmental problems. Environmental scientists have responded by increasingly focusing on the interactions between nature and social dynamics. This helps reveal problematic interactions that cause environmental challenges, many of which impact human well‐being.

Groundwater Recharge of Fractured Rock Aquifers in SE Australia Is Episodic and Controlled by Season and Rainfall Amount

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Sustainable management of groundwater resources requires a comprehensive understanding of groundwater recharge; including when and under what conditions groundwater recharge occurs.

Groundwater Recharge Potential Using GIS around the Land Development Facilities of Chulalongkorn University at Kaeng Khoi District, Saraburi Province, Thailand

open access: yesApplied Environmental Research, 2015
Kaeng Khoi District (Saraburi Province, Thailand) suffers from a surface water shortage due to increasing demand from domestic use and crop production, particularly in the drought season.
