Agrochemical contamination in groundwater poses a significant long term threat to water quality and is of concern for legislators, water utilities and consumers alike. In the dual porosity, dual permeability aquifers such as the Chalk aquifer, movement of pesticides and their metabolites through the unsaturated zone to groundwater is generally considered to be through one of two pathways; a rap...

Introduction: Studying the changes in surface water storage and exchanges with groundwater in the hydrological system of rivers is a prerequisite for water resources management in the basin. In this paper, Zayandehrood River has been studied and the historical series of flow has been used in six hydrographic stations located downstream the Zayandehrood Dam. Materials and Methods: Based on the ...

An analysis of groundwater flow and transport processes of arsenic in the flow domain of the Yamuna sub-basin located in West Bengal (India) is presented. The objectives of the analysis are: to conceptualize the groundwater flow domain, to determine groundwater flow paths and groundwater velocities, to study arsenic transport in the flow domain, and to study the well captures zones. The first t...

During in situ remediation of contaminated groundwater, a treatment solution is often injected into the contaminated region to initiate reactions that degrade the contaminant. Degradation reactions only occur where the treatment solution and the contaminated groundwater are close enough that mixing will bring them together. Degradation is enhanced when the treatment solution is spread into the ...

iran is among the world’s arid and semi-arid regions and its demand for water has been increased due topopulation growth, urbanization and the development the economic sectors (industrial and agricultural). inmany of these regions, the lack of planning and the unauthorized use of resources have led to excessiveexploitation and a lower level of groundwater. the usable groundwater for the country...
