Tailings dams are built to safely store tailings and protect the natural environment from damage. However, dam accidents occur frequently, endangering safety of life property, causing pollution environment. Many caused by seepage. As such, this study takes No. II Ledong Baolun Gold Mine in Hainan Province as an example builds a two-dimensional finite element model simulate seepage field. The ef...

Nutrient concentrations and loads in streamflow are sensitive to rapidly changing stream chemistry and discharge during storms. Mechanistic models that can simulate water and solute movement at hillslope scales could be useful for predicting concentration-discharge (C-Q) patterns and thereby improve our quantitative understanding of terrestrial-aquatic linkages for targeted catchment management...

Results of groundwater and seawater analyses for radioactive (3H, 222Rn, 223Ra, 224Ra, 226Ra, and 228Ra) and stable (D and 18O) isotopes are presented together with in situ spatial mapping and time series 222Rn measurements in seawater, direct seepage measurements using manual and automated seepage meters, pore water investigations using different tracers and piezometric techniques, and geoelec...

Dams have been always considered as the important infrastructures and their critical values are counted. Hence, evaluation and avoidance of dams’ destruction have a specific importance. Seepage occurrence in dams is an inevitable phenomenon. Despite all the progress in geotechnical engineering, up to now, seepage problem is the main conflict which occurs in dams. This study tried to estimate se...

Landscapes that are rhythmically dissected by natural drainage channels exist in various geologic and climatic settings. Such landscapes are characterized by a length-scale for the lateral spacing between channels. We observe a small-scale version of this process in the form of beach rills and reproduce channelization in a table-top seepage experiment. On the beach as well as in the experiments...
