Spatial analysis of vertical leakage in overdrafted aquifers: The Hueco bolson aquifer, Texas, 1956–1995The ground-water aquifers that supply the El Paso (United States)–Ciudad Juarez (Mexico) region with fresh water are being depleted faster than they can replenish themselves through natural or...
The water in this region's aquifer is frequently replenished by rainfall, rivers, and channels72. The groundwater is significantly depleted during the dry and monsoon seasons and subsequently refilled. Groundwater flow may have aided the saltwater infiltration into the water-bearing strata. The pare...
Overall, despite the water being replenished every 5 years, there were no clear shifts in abundant groups during the course of the 6-year experiment. The deepest sampling site (borehole KF0069A01) had a fluctuating community composition with the highest proportion of unknown 16S rRNA gene ...
It is possible that water use in this area, if it is increasing, is replenished through the nearby outcrop. In the central group, the water levels hold steady, and yet this area has seen some of the most extensive well development in recent decades. The growth in Dockum water use in ...
Pilot points are used to substitute zones of parameter uniformity, allowing the disposition of areas of high and low hydraulic property contrast values to be inferred through the calibration process, without the need to define zones before estimating the parameters [21]. A number of the pilot ...
(i.e., modelling of equilibrium at calcite saturation, with a solution under constant pCO2, or with a solution having initial but not replenished pCO2). Arrows depicts the evolution in theoretical open and closed systems as well as for “partially open system” (introduced inSection 3.2) that...
However, there are certain localized pockets where the depletion of the groundwater level has continued over the years, resulting in a loss of usable groundwater at a rate faster than it can be replenished [11,15]. Despite being located on the southern bank of the Brahmaputra River, ...
