Soil profile evolution following land-use change: implications for groundwater quantity and quality
Soil and vadose zone profiles are used as an archive of changes in groundwater recharge and water quality following changes in land use in an area of the Loess Plateau of China. A typical rain-fed loess-terrace agriculture region in Hequan, Guyuan, is taken as an example, and multiple tracers (chloride mass balance, stable isotopes, tritium and water chemistry) are used to examine groundwater r...

primarily agricultural) and decreased baseflow because of groundwater production. For example, in 2002 the Before recent drilling and characterization efforts in the vicinity State of New Mexico was unable to honor interstate of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), conceptual models had been developed for recharge and discharge in the regional aquifer on stream compacts for surface water deli...
متن کاملEvaluation of Groundwater Vulnerability Using Data Mining Technique in Hashtgerd Plain
Groundwater vulnerability assessment would be one of the effective informative methods to provide a basis for determining source of pollution. Vulnerability maps are employed as an important solution in order to handle entrance of pollution into the aquifers. A common way to develop groundwater vulnerability map is DRASTIC. Meanwhile, application of the method is not easy for any aquifer due to...
متن کاملA Vulnerability Evaluation of the Phreatic Water in the Plain Area of the Junggar Basin, Xinjiang Based on the VDEAL Model
A VDEAL (V is the lithology of the vadose zone, D is the groundwater depth, E is the degree of groundwater exploitation, A is the aquifer characteristics and L is the land use pattern.) model, which is suitable for a vulnerability evaluation of the groundwater in arid inland areas, and that is based on the GOD (G is the groundwater status, O is overburden feature and D is groundwater depth) met...
متن کاملSoil Hydraulics Properties Estimation by Using Pedotransfer Functions in a Northeastern Semiarid Zone Catchment, Brazil
Hydrological modeling of the unsaturated soil zone fluxes allows the transfer processes simulation through the hydrological active soil zone. The pedotransfer functions (FTP) are useful tools in the modeling process. They contain analytical functions derived through statistic optimization process using a large amount of soil information data. This paper aims to analyze the level of reliability ...
