This paper proposes a preliminary and large-scale survey methodology to identify areas suitable for indepth analysis the application of Sustainable Drainage Systems Managed Aquifer Recharge. These techniques are frequently applied increase natural infiltration capacity water into ground their effectiveness depends on local hydrogeological morphological characteristics. The study area is city Ro...

water is the main option of any development, so having an accurate management of groundwater is necessary. this study has been done in damghan sedimentary plain in iran, which is located in northwest of semnan province. the main objective of this research was to estimate the rate and right site of recharge in damghan plain to prevent the aquifer from decreasing the water table. for this purpose...

[1] The hydrology and geochemistry of groundwater in tropical island aquifers, such as on Barbados, are significantly influenced by tropical climatic conditions. Recharge to these aquifers is the product of regional and local climate patterns that control rainfall. Oxygen isotopes can be used to estimate the amount and timing of recharge on these islands because seasonal fluctuations of rainwat...

This study applies a production function approach to value the groundwater recharge function of the Hadejia-Nguru wetlands in northern Nigeria. The groundwater recharge function supports dry season agricultural production which is dependent on groundwater abstraction for irrigation. Using survey data this paper first carries out an economic valuation of agricultural production, per hectare of i...

Artificial groundwater recharge is a process by which the groundwater reservoir is augmented at a rate exceeding the augmentation rate under natural conditions of replenishment. In some parts of India, due to over-exploitation of groundwater, decline in groundwater levels resulting in shortage of supply of water, and intrusion of saline water in coastal areas have been observed. In such areas, ...

Groundwater recharge is essential to groundwater resources availability to economy and society development in semiarid areas. Chloride mass balance method to assess groundwater recharge have been review and was employed to quantify groundwater recharge in North Okanagan which is a semiarid mountainous terrain, southern interior British Columbian, Canada. Chloride concentration in precipitation ...

Over-exploitation of coastal aquifers causes seawater intrusion and eventually contamination of groundwater wells in many parts of the world. Artificial recharge of treated wastewater can be used to avoid or control seawater intrusion. A common characteristic of many coastal areas in Southern Europe is that most of the annual water demand, and hence the amount of water that can be used for arti...

Effects of climatic changes, progressing urbanization and improved environmental controls on the simulated urban stormwater quality in a Northern Sweden community were studied. Future scenarios accounting for those changes were developed and their effects simulated with the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM). It was observed that the simulated stormwater quality was highly sensitive to the sce...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the sources, transport and distribution of hydrophobic organic contaminants produced in an urban area. Passive sampling devices (PSDs) were employed in the storm-water drainage of the city of Lahti, in an adjacent boreal lake (Vesijärvi) and along its shore. Samples were analysed for 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and 28 polychlorinated biphenyl...

Stormwater detention basins are primarily designed to detain large volumes of storm runoff and trap suspended sediments and associated pollutants. Detaining and retaining nutrients are often not a design focus. The combination of variable moisture patterns in stormwater basins along with potential nutrient influxes may make these basins hotspots for nitrogen transformations such as denitrificat...
