سابقه و هدف: در کشور ایران از حدود 5/88 میلیارد مترمکعب آب استحصال‌شده منابع سطحی زیرزمینی، ۸۳ یعنی 5/93 درصد به بخش کشاورزی اختصاص می‌یابد، بزرگ‌ترین مصرف‌کننده است. مصرف رو افزایش معلول جمعیت، سطح زیر کشت تولیدات هست که به‌تبع آن سبب کاهش دسترسی افت ایستابی تخلیه آبخوان‌ها شده آمارها نشان می‌دهند این استراتژیک، تهدید کمیت کیفیت است ­طوری ­که هم ­اکنون تعداد زیادی دشت­ های شرایط بحرانی قرار دا...

The population concentration in coastal areas and the increase of groundwater discharge in combination with the peculiarities of karstic coastal aquifers constitute a huge worldwide problem, which is particularly relevant for coastal aquifers of the Mediterranean basin. This paper offers a review of scientific activities realized to pursue the optimal utilization of Apulian coastal groundwater....

Kosovo has limited natural water resources which should be well managed. This is recently realised through quantitative and qualitative monitoring of both surface and groundwater and by characterizing their quality according to their destination. In this paper, the Water Quality Index (WQI) developed by the Canadian Council of Environment Ministers (CCME WQI) was applied to evaluate the groundw...

Environmental management and planning problems cover important real life areas. These problems may include the scarcity of groundwater resource, the optimality of a multi-reservoir system, the management of forest resources, the air quality monitoring networks, the municipal solid waste policies, etc. Management and planning targets by authorities consist in allocations at appropriate places an...

groundwater resources are the main source of water supply in many arid countries such as iran. because of uncontrolled increasing of the population, limitation of surface water resources and excessive extraction from aquifers, sharp drop in groundwater level in many plains such as khezel plain located in hamedan province was occurred. khezel plain is important because of strategic crop farming ...

Forests are receiving more attention for the ecosystem goods and services they provide and the potential change agents that may affect forest health and productivity. Highlighting case examples from coastal forests in South Carolina, USA, we describe groundwater processes with respect to stressors and potential responses of a wetland-rich forested landscape, the roles that this area has served,...

Groundwater has been used for domestic and irrigation needs from time immemorial. Yet its nature and occurrence have always possessed a certain mystery because water below the land surface is invisible and relatively inaccessible. The influence of this mystery lingers in some tenets that govern groundwater law. With the birth of modern geology during the late nineteenth century, groundwater sci...
