Marine hydrogeology: recent accomplishments and future opportunities

Marine hydrogeology is a broad-ranging scientific discipline involving the exploration of fluid–rock interactions below the seafloor. Studies have been conducted at seafloor spreading centers, mid-plate locations, and in plateand continental-margin environments. Although many seafloor locations are remote, there are aspects of marine systems that make them uniquely suited for hydrologic analysi...

Geomatics in hydrogeology

Design and construction of hydrogeological information systems is now a necessity. For proper functionality of these systems, it is necessary to create them in accordance with widely accepted international standards regarding geospatial information. Geomatics research tools allow for creation of basic models of hydrogeological data, consistent with these standards. The models can be based upon ...

Diffusion in Hydrogeology

The field of hydrogeology is primarily concerned with the flow of water below the ground surface and with transport, normally of solutes and heat, within that water. Many disciplines have contributed to this endeavor which requires skills from across the spectrum of science, engineering and beyond. The diffusion equation describes not only solute transport but also the flow of water, via Darcy’...
