Coastal aquifers are highly dynamic groundwater systems. Sea level rise will cause a in coastal tables resulting increased risk of shallow or emergent (Befus et al., 2020). Marine water fluctuations the beach table to oscillate over relatively large range. Understanding these oscillations is crucial, as (i.e., high) may impact subsurface infrastructure, mobilize sediment, and increase liquefact...

An algorithm is presented for generating ®nite element grids that can be used to calculate the position of a ̄uctuating water table and the formation of seepage faces within a heterogeneous uncon®ned aquifer. Our approach overcomes limitations with existing techniques by allowing the water table to rise or decline through hydrostratigraphic boundaries yet maintains numerical and conceptual accur...

A freshwater lens underlain by saltwater exists beneath the entire northern Yucatan karst plain, Mexico. Water levels recorded in this plain, during the period June 1987 April, 1989, were used to map the water table, identify inland hydrogeologic boundaries, and estimate the thickness of the freshwater lens using the Ghyben-Herzberg relation. The water table under most of northwestern Yucatan i...

1. Discoloration of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) tape has been used in peatland ecological and hydrological studies as an inexpensive way to monitor changes in water-table depth and reducing conditions. 2. We investigated the relationship between depth of PVC tape discoloration and measured water-table depth at monthly time steps during the growing season within nine kettle peatlands of northern Wi...

in drought prone environments wheat crop growth and production depends strongly on the water stored in the soil before anthesis and, although some water remains in the soil after harvest, plants experience water deficit. in order to investigate whether water ex-traction patterns, as a plant feature, have a regulating effect on the amount of water used by them at different soil depths, three whe...

Fisheries and scientific investigations of the recently discovered deep-water coral province south of Malta sampled living specimens of two deep-water Coralliophilinae intimately associated with Lophelia-Madrepora coral banks. The species are ‘Coralliophila’ richardi (Fischer P., 1882) and Babelomurex sentix (Bayer, 1971). A third coralliophilinid ‘Coralliophila’ squamosa (Bivona Ant. in Bivona...
