Large-scale hydrological models are important decision support tools in water resources management. The largest source of uncertainty in such models is the hydrostratigraphic model. Geometry and configuration of hydrogeological units are often poorly determined from hydrogeological data alone. Due to sparse sampling in space, lithological borehole logs may overlook structures that are important...

Topographically expressed zones of flow accumulation often coincide with fault intersections because of increased rock fracturing. We have conducted a study of the interrelationships between topographically expressed accumulation zones and fault intersections, and the function of these sites in landscape evolution. The investigation has been performed with the use of digital terrain models, geo...

A Precious natural asset and prime resource for the basic need a human is water. Groundwater which commonly available as freshwater sources beneath earth's surface widely used in many parts of world domestic agricultural activities. In this present work, groundwater potential zone identification done by using remote sensing GIS. The thematic maps like soil, rainfall, drainage, DEM land use cove...

Abstract Groundwater is considered as only source which provides water for meeting domestic, industrial and agricultural requirement. Continuous uses of without any conservation cause lowering Ground level thus living forms are facing many problems now-a-days. In current situation some existing wells getting dried up because depletion groundwater table the natural recharge not sufficient requir...

Wetlands, and in particular riparian wetlands, are at the interface between well drained land and the aquatic environment, where they control the exchange of water and related chemical fluxes from catchment areas to surface waters like lakes and streams. Integrating wetlands and riparian zones in regional hydrological modeling is challenging because of the complex interactions between soil wate...

BACKGROUND Extensive human activities and unplanned land uses have put groundwater resources of Shiraz plain at a high risk of nitrate pollution, causing several environmental and human health issues. To address these issues, water resources managers utilize groundwater vulnerability assessment and determination of protection. This study aimed to prepare the vulnerability maps of Shiraz aquifer...

Abstract This paper describes the complex hydrogeological, legal framework and socioeconomic costs of groundwater protection in major basins (MGBs) Poland accordance with European directives. The hydrogeological criteria developed for establishing MGBs principles their provide more details to directives that are force Europe, which define general protection. procedure MGB zones is connected a c...
