<p>The Bagnore and Piancastagnaio geothermal fields of the Monte Amiata volcanic area (Figure 1) have been under exploitation for about half a century. Numerous geologic studies have been performed in this area due to its mining and geothermal peculiarity. ...

<p>Brackish water of coastal karst aquifers is useless. Desalination methods are: interception method to capture fresh water in karst massif, isolation and rise-spring-level methods to prevent sea water inflow and reduced pumping of fresh water in dry periods. ...

This report presents an overview of the geology, hydrology, and climate of the lower Helmand Basin, a large, closed, arid basin in southern Afghanistan. The basin is drained by the Helmand River, the only perennial desert stream between the Indus and Tigris-Euphrates ...

This paper describes the geotechnical, structural and hydrogeological setting of PB8S, reconciliation between design and slope performance and the slope engineering techniques used to effectively manage the risks associated with the slope. These techniques ...

<p>The paper discusses the city of S&atilde;o Paulo, one of the largest cities in the world, situated at the head of a basin drained by the Tiet&ecirc; River. This important river played a major role in the exploration and colonization of a large portion of ...

Investigation of underground water contamination using water samples. Hydrogeologicaland geological features of the investigated area and their contamination risk.

This report provides hazardous waste site managers with information on the application and performance of characterization technologies and approaches to locating and characterizing dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) contamination. The document describes ...

<p>Autoregulation between groundwater flow and karst aquifer properties, duality of karst, nested model of geological discontinuities, scale effect on hydraulic parameters and use of numerical finite element models to check the interpretation of the global ...

Conceptual geological models of urban areas are an essential component of groundwater investigations as well as of urban groundwater management. For sustainable urban groundwater management there must be a coherent understanding of the local groundwater and ...
