Our paper ‘‘Upscaling geochemical reaction rates using pore-scale network modeling’’ [1] presents a novel application of pore-scale network modeling to upscale mineral dissolution and precipitation reaction rates from the pore scale to the continuum scale, and demonstrates the methodology by analyzing the scaling behavior of anorthite and kaolinite reaction kinetics under conditions related to ...

The hydrogeochemical characteristics of groundwater are an important element in the study spatial and temporal variation resources, which is crucial to water resources utilization, ecological environmental protection, human development. Water samples were collected at eight observation Nandong Karst System (NKWS) sites each month 2019, main ions isotopes examined. hydrogeochemistry its differen...

in this work, the precipitation and re-dissolution of asphaltenes were studied for an iranian relatively heavy crude oil. a series of experiments were designed and carried out to quantitatively examine the reversibility of asphaltenes precipitation upon the change in the solvent concentration along with the temperature. n-heptane was used as the precipitant, and a temperature range of 30 to 70°...

Springs are the important water resources, which thier study is necessary in terms of their management and exploitation. In northern Iran, the karst springs locate in the central Alborz highlands and alluvial springs on the Caspian southern coasts.The Karst and alluvial springs discharge is variable because of different conditions in terms of aquifer, topography and precipitation .This study ha...

Epilithic and endolithic biofilms were found to control the formation of stromatolites in karst-water creeks. We used microsensors to determine the influence of biological processes on chemical conditions within the microenvironment of crystal nucleation sites: the stromatolite surface. Phototrophic members of the biofilms consisted of mainly cyanobacteria and diatoms. Oxygen, pH, calcium, and ...

Soil and epikarst play an important role in the hydrological cycle in karst regions. This paper focuses on investigating the seasonal recharge and mean residence time (MRT) of soil water and epikarst water in a small karst catchment of southwest China. The deuterium contents in precipitation, creek, soil baseflow (direct recharge of the saturated soil water to the stream), epikarst spring, and ...
