The build-up and eruption of crystal-rich ignimbrites, commonly referred to as ‘Monotonous Intermediates’ , has been attributed to the incremental addition of new magma batches and the episodic partial melting and reactivation of rheologically locked crystal-rich magma bodies (mushes). In this study, we explore the role of volatiles exsolved from a hot intrusion underplating a crystal mush on t...

The salinity of groundwater in Qinzhou Bay has been increasing since 2013. This phenomenon affects livelihoods and the local agricultural economy, specifically Longmengang area. In this work, we investigate causes water salinization to provide evidence for effectively managing resources improving quality. We collected 110 samples from spatially distributed wells, rivers, reservoirs, sea, conduc...

Dry areas near the sea can obtain fresh water through solar distillation of saline sea water resources. However, these solar distillation sites produce wastewater as a result of desalination of sea water with high salt concentration. Waste must be disposed of with the least effect on the receiving environment (sea, in most cases). Initial dilution and its characteristics play important roles in...

W ithin the past few decades, the water quality in many of the coastal aquifers along the Mediterranean Sea has rapidly degraded. Overexploitation of the groundwater basins, particularly during the tourist season, has resulted in the lowering of groundwater tables and increasing seawater intrusion into the aquifers. Countries such as Cyprus and Israel have shut down hundreds of wells along the ...

[1] The Sulu Sea, isolated from the neighboring ocean below 570 m, is nearly isothermal below 1250 m but with a marked salinity increase with depth. The source of the deep Sulu Sea water has been attributed to South China Sea water overflowing the 570 m topographic sill of Panay Strait. However, the Panay overflow (estimated as 0.32 × 10 m/sec) is an unlikely source for the saltier water Sulu S...

Water quality preservation represents one of the biggest challenges world is facing nowadays. In Morocco, water decline among significant problems country’s sector. Geographic Information System (GIS) an effective and useful tool for interpreting, evaluating displaying spatial data resources management. order to assess Physico-chemical characteristics groundwater Sahel-Doukkala aquifers, sample...
