Diffusion in Hydrogeology
نویسنده
چکیده
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’s law. Of particular interest is transport in fractured rock where most of the flow is through the fractures while most of the storage is in the rock pores: a ‘double-porosity’ system. Hydrogeology remains a field that welcomes those who bring techniques from other areas of science to address problems as varied as water supply, radioactive waste disposal and geothermal energy.

Nebkhas, as one of the Eoelian Landforms in dry and semi-dry areas, have significant influence in controlling aeolian erosion and the environment stability. The main question of this study concerns different morphometry of nebkhas in two neighbor sites in Daranjir playa and the main factors which control these landforms. area special properties, the variety of hydrogeology properties, and the...
متن کاملStochastic hydrogeology: what professionals really need?
Quantitative hydrogeology celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2006. Geostatistics is younger but has had a very large impact in hydrogeology. Today, geostatistics is used routinely to interpolate deterministically most of the parameters that are required to analyze a problem or make a quantitative analysis. In a small number of cases, geostatistics is combined with deterministic approaches to f...
