Radium isotopes (Ra, Ra, Ra, and Ra) and water chemistry were used to identify two chemically distinct sources of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) in Celestún Lagoon, Yucatán, Mexico. Low salinity groundwater discharging from springs within the lagoon has previously been identified and extensively sampled for nutrient concentrations. However, a second type of groundwater discharging into t...

Flooding’s impact on shallow groundwater is not well investigated. In this study, we analyzed changes in the depth and quality of a regional shallow aquifer in the 10.9 × 104 km2 Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China, following a large flood in the summer of 2013. Pre(2008–2012) and post-flood records on groundwater table depth and groundwater chemistry were gathered from 20 wells across the region. ...

Wetlands often form the transition zone between upland soils and watershed streams, however, stream–wetland interactions and hydrobiogeochemical processes are poorly understood. We measured changes in stream nitrogen (N) through one riparian wetland and one beaver meadow in the Archer Creek watershed in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State, USA from 1 March to 31 July 1996. In the riparia...

Groundwater is an essential and vital component of our life support system. The groundwater resources are being utilized for drinking, irrigation and industrial purposes. There is growing concern on deterioration of groundwater quality due to geogenic and anthropogenic activities. Groundwater, being a fragile must be carefully managed to maintain its purity within standard limits. So, quality a...

The usage of reclaimed water can efficiently mitigate water crises, but it may cause groundwater pollution. To clearly understand the potential influences of long-term reclaimed water usage, a total of 91 samples of shallow and deep groundwater were collected from a typical reclaimed water use area during the dry and rainy seasons. The results suggest both shallow and deep groundwater are mainl...

Dune slacks are seasonal wetlands, high in biodiversity, which experience considerable within-year and between-year variations in water-table. They are subject to many pressures including climate change, land use change and eutrophication. Despite their biological importance and the threats facing them, the hydrological and nutrient parameters that influence their soil properties and biodiversi...

Ljubljansko polje and Ljubljansko Barje aquifers are the main groundwater resources for the needs of Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. Carbonate chemistry and isotope analysis of the groundwater were performed to acquire new hydrogeological data, which should serve as a base for improvement of hydrogeological conceptual models of both aquifers. A total of 138 groundwater samples were collecte...

the focus of this research work is on the determination of the impact of mining on the groundwater quality in the historical mining region of sw ashanti region in ghana. this work describes the characteristics of the groundwater chemistry and pollution of the aquifer in the gold-ore bearing formation, which is highly weathered and fractured. the fractures control the permeability and depth of t...

Spatio-temporal variations of nitrogen, phosphorus and base cation concentrations in groundwater were related to the drastic change in hydrological conditions of the Rhine alluvial floodplain (Eastern France), which has been disconnected from the river by canalisation. The Groundwater chemistry was studied in two alluvial forests with contrasting hydrological conditions: one in a sector unflood...

This paper deals with the analysis of different realizations regarding groundwater pollution. The groundwater behaviour can be implemented using a mixture of diffusion and convection equations. The analysis of the convection diffusion equation is also interesting for other research areas, for example biology, chemistry and the stock market. The first part will deal with the derivation of the re...
