Land Subsidence and Fissuring Due to Ground Water Withdrawal in Yazd-Ardakan Basin, Central Iran
The Yazd-Ardakan basin in Central Iran has two separated aquifers. The shallow unconfined aquifer is supplies 40 Qanats. The deep saturated confined aquifer is the main water storage. Due to over-withdrawal, water table has been decreasing during last 25 years. Recent study shows that the shortage of the aquifer is about 16 meters and land subsidence is 0.5 1.2 meters. Long deep cracks are foun...

متن کاملLand Subsidence Due to Thermal Water Withdrawal: The Case of Abano Terme, Northern Italy
The major geological features of Euganean thermal basin are recalled. It is then noted that excessive withdrawal of thermal waters, especially concentrated at Abano Terme, has caused serious lowering of the piezometric levels (2.5 m/years were measured during the period 1970-1973). The intervention performed by the unitary Management imposed by Italian Government, led to the stabilization of th...
متن کاملRadar Interferometry for Monitoring Land Subsidence Due to Underground Water Extraction
The underground water extraction induced subsidence has the characteristics of slow rate, less predictable location and coverage. Over a long time period, the cumulated subsidence can be up to a few metres. This paper demonstrates the feasibility and capability of using conventional two-pass differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) for monitoring the underground water extr...
متن کاملShort-term impact of peat drain-blocking on water colour, dissolved organic carbon concentration, and water table depth
r a 200 .046 .: +44 19 all@durh Summary Water discolouration is a major management problem for UK water companies as a proportion of the supply relies on runoff from peat-covered catchments. Many peats have been drained using surface ditches but this has been shown to lead to more severe water discolouration. Drain-blocking is now actively encouraged in UK peatlands to promote peatland habitats...
