Aquifer tests yield estimations of hydrogeological parameters through suitable analytical models from field data recorded as drawdown variations by time or distance. In practice, most often a single model iK adopted with a set of assumptions, and unfortunately, field data deviations from the model type curves are not considered in interpretations . This is a rather mechanistic approach which im...

[1] The estimation of catchment-averaged aquifer hydraulic conductivity values is usually performed through a base flow recession analysis. Relationships between the first time derivatives of the base flow and the base flow values themselves, derived for small and large values of time, are used for this purpose. However, in the derivation of the short-time equations, an initially fully saturate...

1-introduction one of the problems that is important in the waste management is the topic of waste rural landfill site selection and latex resulting from that in rural areas. the latex can be because groundwater pollution the contamination vulnerability and groundwater protection assessment has proved to be an effective tool for the delineation of protection zones in area affected by groundwate...

In-situ remedial strategies that involve the injection of a remedial fluid offer much promise for cost-effectively treating groundwater contaminants such as chlorinated solvent compounds, nitrated explosives, and perchlorate. The successful implementation of many in-situ remediation projects is dependant on the ability to develop an efficient and effective system for the delivery of the necessa...

Naturally occurring dissolved organic matter (DOM) and biosolids-derived DOM have been implicated in the mobility of metals in soils and aquifer materials. To investigate the effect of DOM on copper mobility in aquifer material, DOM derived from sewage biosolids was separated into two apparent molecular-weight (MW) fractions, 500 to 3500 Da (LMW) and > 14 000 Da (HMW). In each MW fraction, the ...

Playas are ephemeral, closed-basin wetlands that are hypothesized as an important source of recharge to the High Plains aquifer in central USA. The ephemeral nature of playas, low regional recharge rates, and a strong reliance on groundwater from the High Plains aquifer has prompted many questions regarding the contribution and quality of recharge from playas to the High Plains aquifer. As a re...

Various physico-chemical parameters, including fluoride (F(-)), were analyzed to understand the hydro-geochemistry of an aquifer in a semi-arid region of India. Furthermore, the quality of the shallow and deep aquifer (using tube well and hand pumps) was also investigated for their best ecological use including drinking, domestic, agricultural and other activities. Different multivariate techni...
