Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleVulnerability and Pollution Risks in the Alluvial Aquifer of Tebessa-MorsottS. Kachi, N. Kherici, N. KachiWe studied the vulnerability and risks of pollution of the alluvial aquifer of Tebessa-Morsott that ranks amongst the major groundwater reservoirs of the region. The method used to asses groundwater vulnerability was the DRASTIC method, based on seven parameters that affect and control the groundwater flow: Depth to groundwater, Impact of the unsaturated zone, net recharge, aquifer media, hydraulic conductivity, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSimulation of Phosphorus Movement in Unconfined Aquifer by Means of Visual MODFLOWSeyed Reza Saghravani, Sa'ari Mustapha, Shaharin Ibrahim et al.Problem statement: In three recent decays, computer software’s are used for assessing and predicting of what happened and what will happen for surface and subsurface water. These supplementary tools are calculating and presenting potential recharge of contamination to estimate and assess important issue in hydrogeology such as amount of contamination in drinking water. There is a source of contamination in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,407 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleContribution to the Study of the Origin of Salinity in Alluvial Aquifer System in the Ain chabro-Hammamet (North-East ALGERIA)K. Seghir, N. KhériciTebessa is located in the Algerian North East. It is characterized by a semi-arid continental climate with an average interannual precipitation of less than 400 mm. It belongs to the Eastern Saharian Atlas field along the Tunisian borders. It is drained by a certain number of the wouady of which Chabro and Bouakous are the most important. The surface area … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGroundwater Flow Systems and Their Response to Climate Change: A Need for a Water-System View ApproachJoel J. Carrillo-Rivera, Antonio CardonaProblem statement: The interest in early hydrogeological studies was the aquifer unit, as it is the physical media that stores and permits groundwater transfers from the recharge zone to the discharge zone, making groundwater available to boreholes for water extraction. Approach: Recently, the aquifer concept has been complemented by the groundwater flow system theory, where groundwater may be defined by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHydrogeological Prognosis with Regard to Realisation of the New Colle Di Tenda Road TunnelCinzia Banzato, Massimo Vincenzo Civita, Adriano Fiorucci et al.Problem statement: The doubling of Tenda pass road tunnel jointing SW France to Piedmont (Italy) was planned to penetrate a complicate rock structure in which several complex play an hydrogeologic role including carbonate-Karst aquifer between flysch impervious complexes. The main problem of the project is the presence of an hydraulic circulation feeding a spring of social and economic great importance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFreshwater Situation in Kuwait-Remote Sensing Inputs on Possibility of Artificial RechargeM. Al-Murad, S. Uddin, A. Al-DousariProblem statement: Kuwait is an arid country having per capita freshwater consumption of 485 l day-1. Almost the entire freshwater requirements are met through desalination. The water tariffs in the country are very low consequent to 60% subsidy provided by the government. The use of tertiary treated wastewater is restricted to irrigation and forestation; this leaves huge surplus that can … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIntegrated Water Resources Management Improving Langat Basin Ecosystem HealthMazlin B. Mokhtar, Mohammad Fawzi Al Ajlouni, Rahma ElfitrieThe ecosystem provides us with all the goods and services that form the base of our economic, social cultural and spiritual life. Good scientific information will be required for managing the environment by using the Ecosystem approach. The groundwater is considered as a possible supplementary of alternative water source, and some factories already started shifting their water source from surface … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGroundwater Dynamics and Quality Assessment in an Agricultural AreaStefano Lo Russo, Adriano Fiorucci, Bartolomeo VignaProblem statement: The analysis of the relationships among the different hydrogeological Units and the assessment of groundwater quality are fundamental to adopt suitable territorial planning measures aimed to reduce the potential groundwater pollution especially in agricultural regions. In this study, the characteristics of groundwater dynamics and the assessment of its quality in the Cuneo Plain (NW Italy) were examined. Approach: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Sep 2011 · 7,367 accessesView PDFCite
