Topological Groundwater Hydrodynamics
Topological groundwater hydrodynamics is an emerging subdiscipline in the mechanics of ¯uids in porous media whose objective is to investigate the invariant geometric properties of subsurface ¯ow and transport processes. In this paper, the topological characteristics of groundwater ¯ows governed by the Darcy law are studied. It is demonstrated that: (i) the topological constraint of zero helici...
متن کاملDrought-associated chikungunya emergence along coastal East Africa.
Epidemics of chikungunya fever, an Aedes spp.-borne viral disease, affected hundreds of thousands of people in western Indian Ocean islands and India during 2005-2006. The initial outbreaks occurred in coastal Kenya (Lamu, then Mombasa) in 2004. We investigated eco-climatic conditions associated with chikungunya fever emergence along coastal Kenya using epidemiologic investigations and satellit...
متن کاملReview of Analytical Studies of Tidal Groundwater Flow in Coastal Aquifer Systems
Since the 1950s, numerous publications of analytical studies of tidal wave propagations in coastal aquifers have been appeared. This paper reviews the following aspects: importance of tidal effects in studies of coastal areas, analytical studies of tide-induced groundwater flow and related case studies. Finally several important open problems in analytical studies of tide-induced groundwater fl...
متن کاملSustainable groundwater management of the stressed Coastal aquifer in the Gaza region
This study proposes an empirical approach that can lead to the sustainable management of groundwater resources. This approach enables a comprehensive understanding of an aquifer, delineates distinct hydrological scenarios, and recommends a set of operational activities for each sub-region of the aquifer. The paper focuses on the Coastal aquifer of the Gaza Strip region which has been divided in...
متن کاملAnalytical solutions of tidal groundwater flow in coastal two-aquifer system
This paper presents a complete analytical solution to describe tidal groundwater level fluctuations in a coastal subsurface system. The system consists of two aquifers and a leaky layer between them. Previous solutions of Jacob [Flow of groundwater, in: H. Rouse (Ed.), Engineering Hydraulics, Wiley, New York, 1950, pp. 321–386], Jiao and Tang [Water Resour. Res. 35 (3) (1999) 747], Li and Jiao ...
