Numerical simulation of saturated-unsaturated groundwater flow and contaminant transport in a karst aquifer

open access: yes地质科技通报, 2022
Groundwater in karst aquifers is an important source of drinking water. Due to the complexity of hydrogeological characteristics, it is extremely challenging to analyze and evaluate the groundwater environment in karst aquifers by numerical modeling.

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,

The Hidden Harvest: Harnessing Colorado's Geodiversity and Environmental Heterogeneity for Sustainable Agritourism

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...
