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 ...

The Late Agricultural Development of Central Arabian Oases—Archaeobotanical and Archaeozoological Studies of the al‐Kharj Oasis

open access: yesArabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

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 ...

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 ...

Changes in land‐snail communities and steppe environments in the lower Rhône valley during the Lateglacial–Holocene transition

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Land snail successions in the lower Rhône valley allow us to reconstruct the postglacial recolonization. From the Lateglacial period onwards, Mediterranean steppe communities appeared. The arrival of forest taxa was significantly delayed by aridity. The question of glacial refugia, both local and distant, primarily concerned Mediterranean species of ...

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 ...

Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...

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 ...

Long‐Term Discharge Records from United States and European Karst Springs: Data Limitations in Trend Analysis

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Karst spring discharge trend (the change in discharge over a period greater than 30 years for each spring) does not depend on discharge variability. Insets show two springs with contrasting discharge variability (variable vs. extremely high variability) but similar discharge trends.

The Earth's Greatest Porous Media

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract How deeply does modern meteoric water circulate into the continental crust? How deep is the Earth's Critical Zone (CZ), the top layer of the continental lithosphere that co‐evolves with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, extending from vegetation canopy down to fresh bedrock and the base of active groundwater circulation?
