Rediscovery of Passiflora clypeophylla (subgenus Decaloba): a highly threatened and narrow endemic species found within a karstic canyon in Guatemala

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Passiflora clypeophylla, an endemic species to the Guatemalan karstic forests last seen in 1889 and deemed extinct, was rediscovered in the Department of Alta Verapaz, east of Cobán. The species was known only from a single specimen hailed from the type locality, Rubel Cruz, where it has been found again. An additional location has been identified in a

Groundwater Vulnerability to Pollution Map for Karst Aquifer Protection (Ziria Karst System, Southern Greece)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
In recent years vulnerability maps have been used as a tool to highlight the areas with the greatest potential for groundwater pollution based on the hydrogeological conditions and their respective human impacts.

Hydraulic Behavior of Karst Aquifers

open access: yesWater, 2019
The objective of this Special Issue, “Hydraulic Behavior of Karst Aquifers”, is to focus on recent advances in karst hydrogeology in different areas of the world, focusing on topics dealing with the peculiar characteristics of karst aquifers. In particular, thirteen peer-reviewed articles were collected, focusing on hydraulic aspects and their ...

Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

Karst Aquifers Vulnerability or Sensitivity?

open access: yesActa Carsologica, 2016
Za določitev vodovarstvenih območij ter za načrtovanje rabe prostora v zaledju zajetih kraških izvirov in vrtin se praviloma uporablja koncept kartiranja ranljivosti kraških vodonosnikov. Obstaja več med seboj različnih metodologij kartiranja ranljivosti kraških vodonosnikov in pregled znanstvene literature kaže na določene razlike v definiciji pojma ...

Root water uptake depth in temperate forest trees: species‐specific patterns shaped by neighbourhood and environment

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Root water uptake strategies vary among temperate tree species (European beech, Douglas fir, and Norway spruce), with beech–conifer mixtures altering water uptake depths, while site conditions and temporal dynamics further shape the contribution of different soil depths to water supply.

Tracer Test as a Tool for Optimizing the Flow Patterns and Efficiency of a Full‐Scale Drainage Water Treatment Wetland

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
Tracer testing assessed hydraulics and nitrate removal in three full‐scale agricultural drainage treatment wetlands over 3.5 years (three tests). The first test showed rapid, short‐circuited flow and low residence time. After modifying the collection system, the second test increased residence time from 1 to 7 days.

Parametric identification of a karst aquifer [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, Vol 99, 2006
The parametric identification of non-homogeneous aquifers is a highly complex task because it requires the performance of a large number of infield trials, which often yield results that are difficult to interpret or have doubtful reliability. Moreover, the physically continuous nature of the hydrogeological parameters to be identified (typically ...

A Global Review of Microplastic Contamination in Groundwater: Empirical Evidence and Latin American Perspectives

open access: yesWater and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of microplastics (MPs) in groundwater has emerged as a significant concern due to their environmental impact and the threat they pose to vital water resources, groundwater being one of the most important freshwater sources in the world.
