Overutilization of groundwater resources can put their quality under stress. It could be base on rapid declination in groundwater level leading to salt water intrusion in the coastal aquifers. The objective of this study was to map the vulnerability of salt water intrusion of the Urmia Lake, Iran to nearby coastal aquifer (Azarshahr) using GALDIT method. The GALDIT index based on six parameters...

Source water protection in areas of shale gas development encompasses identifying that are the most vulnerable to groundwater quality deterioration due spills natural production wastewater. This study uses density-dependent flow and transport code TOUGH2 quantify time distance travel saline wastewater plumes for different hydrogeological settings Northeast British Columbia. The models were desi...

The nomenclature for Kansas aquifers needs revision. Many of the names currently in use were derived in an ad hoc manner without the benefit of a consistent set of hydrogeologically based guidelines. Because nomenclature forms the basis of scientific discussion of hydrologic issues, names should be clearly defined and consistently applied in order to prevent erroneous or unintended hydrologic i...

The temperature distribution of shallow sectors coastal aquifers are highly influenced by the atmospheric and recharge. However, geothermal heat or vertical fluxes due to presence saline wedge have more influence at deeper locations. In this study, using numerical models that account for variable density, periodic oscillations been detected, their origin has attributed exerted recharge tides. c...
