Pore water analyses of low-permeability sediments as a tool for reconstruction of hydrological processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The groundwater quality of coastal areas is strongly influenced by changes in the hydrological boundary conditions, such as coastline configuration and climatic conditions. As groundwater quality patterns take a long time to adapt to the new boundary conditions, the effects of these changes can still be noticed today. For example, large amounts of saline groundwater are still found below areas that were formerly covered by the sea.

Synthesis and Experimental-Modelling Evaluation of Nanoparticles Movements by Novel Surfactant on Water Injection: An Approach on Mechanical Formation Damage Control and Pore Size Distribution
Water injection is used as a widespread IOR/EOR method and promising formation damages (especially mechanical ones) is a crucial challenge in the near-wellbore of injection wells. The magnesium oxide (MgO) NanoParticles (NPs) considered in the article underwater flooding experiment tests to monitor the promising mechanical formation damage (size exclusion) in lab mechanistic scale include m...

Maharlu Lake, located in the SW of Iran, has acted as a sink for various wastewater discharges in the last few decades. This study aimed at assessing potentially toxic elements (PTEs) distribution in sediment, surface and pore water samples of Maharlu Lake. To achieve that, the samples were collected from each compartment and the total concentration of PTEs (Al, Fe, Sc, Cr, Co, Ni, Zn, As, Sb, ...
متن کاملSolute sources and geochemical processes in Subglacial Lake Whillans, West Antarctica
Subglacial Lake Whillans (SLW), West Antarctica, is an active component of the subglacial hydrological network located beneath 800 m of ice. The fill and drain behavior of SLW leads to long (years to decades) water residence times relative to those in mountain glacier systems. Here, we present the aqueous geochemistry of the SLW water column and pore waters from a 38-cm-long sediment core. Stab...
متن کاملThe ecological significance of exchange processes between rivers and groundwater
1. This review focuses on the connectivity between river and groundwater ecosystems, viewing them as linked components of a hydrological continuum. Ecological processes that maintain the integrity of both systems and those that are mediated by their ecotones are evaluated. 2. The hyporheic zone, as the connecting ecotone, shows diverse gradients. Thus it can be characterized by hydrological, ch...
