Delineating the groundwater potential zones in Bangladesh

Identification of Groundwater Potential Zones in Moalleman, Iran by Remote Sensing and Index Overlay Technique in GIS

Water plays a vital role in the development of activities in an area. The surface water resources are inadequate to fulfill the water demand. Productivity through groundwater is quite high as compared to surface water, but groundwater resources have not yet been properly exploited. Keeping this view, the present study attempts to select and delineate various groundwater potential zones for the ...

Groundwater Vulnerability in Different Climatic Zones

Arsenic mobility and groundwater extraction in Bangladesh.

High levels of arsenic in well water are causing widespread poisoning in Bangladesh. In a typical aquifer in southern Bangladesh, chemical data imply that arsenic mobilization is associated with recent inflow of carbon. High concentrations of radiocarbon-young methane indicate that young carbon has driven recent biogeochemical processes, and irrigation pumping is sufficient to have drawn water ...

Groundwater Dynamics and Arsenic Contamination in Bangladesh

Although arsenic contaminated groundwater in Bangladesh is a serious health issue, little is known about the complex transient patterns of groundwater flow that flush solutes from aquifers and carry solutes into the subsurface. Hydrologic modeling results for our field site in the Munshiganj district indicate that groundwater flow is vigorous, flushing the aquifer over time-scales of decades to...

EZZone – An Online Tool for Delineating Management Zones

Management zones are a pillar of Precision Agriculture research. Spatial variability is apparent in all fields, and assessing this variability through measurement devices can lead to better management decisions. The use of Geographic Information Systems for agricultural management is common, especially with management zones. Although many algorithms have been produced in research settings, no o...
