Karst Groundwater Vulnerability Determined by Modeled Age and Residence Time Tracers

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Karst aquifers are a vital groundwater resource globally, but features such as rapid recharge and conduit flow make them highly vulnerable to land‐surface contamination.

Overview of groundwater modeling technology and its application in karst areas with multiple-void media

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2022
Due to the extremely heterogeneous distribution of karst and the multi-media nature of karst aquifer medium, the groundwater flow in karst water system presents complex and changeable characteristics.

Fold and fault control on the drainage pattern of a double-karst-aquifer system, Winterstaude, Austrian Alps

open access: yesActa Carsologica, 2010
Lithostratigraphy and geologic structures are major controls on groundwater flow in alpine karst systems. Understanding these factors is important for the delimitation of drinking water pro­tection zones. The Winterstaude mountain chain, western Aus­tria,

Karst Water Management in Slovenia in the Frame of Vulnerability Mapping

open access: yesActa Carsologica, 2006
Slovene karst sources are of great national importance for drinking water supply. Since karst aquifer systems are very susceptible to contamination, these sources require appropriate and careful managing. Unfortunately, in the acts of Slovene legislation,

Water abundance assessment model development and water hazard control strategies for karst aquifers in metal mines: A case study of the Maoping lead zinc mine in Northeast Yunnan, China

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
To address the limitations of relying solely on borehole-specific water inflow rates to evaluate the water abundance of karst aquifers in metal mines, this study presented a comprehensive assessment in the Maoping lead zinc mine in Northeastern Yunnan, a

A comparison of methods for assessing groundwater vulnerability in karst aquifers: the case study of Terminio Mt. aquifer (Southern Italy)

open access: yesSustainable Environment Research, 2023
The assessment of groundwater vulnerability to pollution is becoming even more important all over the world due to the increase of impacts of human activities on groundwater resources and the related risks to the human health, economics, and the ...

Impact of connected conduit on pumping-induced seawater intrusion in a coastal karst aquifer

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionCoastal karst aquifers face the risk of seawater intrusion due to groundwater development. Based on the conceptualization of Woodville Karst Plain (WKP), this study investigates the effect of karst conduit and pumping conditions on the ...

Karst Aquifer evolution in fractured, porous rocks [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2000
The evolution of flow in a fractured, porous karst aquifer is studied by means of the finite element method on a two‐dimensional mesh of irregularly spaced nodal points. Flow within the karst aquifer is driven by surface recharge from the entire region, simulating a precipitation pattern, and is directed toward an entrenched river as a base level ...

Water flow characteristics of Maocun underground river basin based on environmental isotopes

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica, 2022
Underground river basins in peak-cluster depressions are main water supply sources of villages in Guangxi. But there exist problems of groundwater exploitation, groundwater pollution and natural disasters in these areas due to a special geological ...

Investigation of the Dynamic Evolution Mechanism of Bed Separation in Karst Aquifers and Risk Assessment of Water Inrush

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the temporal and spatial evolution law of roof separation under the karst aquifer and the dynamic water inrush mechanism of roof separation. The FAHP–EWM–CRITIC combination weighting method was established to obtain the risk zoning of bed separation water inrush in a karst landform mining area. ABSTRACT Coalfields in northern Guizhou
