theoretical review of ‘mining pit lakes’ indicates that like natural lakes such lakes display a huge diversity. they are typically in a non-equilibrium state with respect to their surroundings. hence, at the decommissioning phase of mining operation a detailed technical study are required on different aspects of such created water bodies considering its morphometry, geology, hydrology, water qu...

field saturated hydraulic conductivity (kfs) is one of the most important soil properties that considerably contribute to soil quality. however, specifically in the structured soils, the measurement of kfs is difficult and time-consuming. therefore, verifying the simple and fast methods for kfs measurement is needed for effective soil monitoring. this study was conducted to investigate the effe...
