G) The Ogallala Aquifer is a vast, shallow underground water table aquifer located beneath the Great Plains in the United States. One of the world’s largest aquifers, it covers an area of approximately 174,000m2(450,000km2) in portions of eight states: (South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, ...
a stratum or several strata of water-permeable rock, whose pores, cracks, or other cavities are filled with groundwater. Several aquifers hydraulically connected to each other form an aquifer complex. The Great Soviet Encyclopedia, 3rd Edition (1970-1979). © 2010 The Gale Group, Inc. All ...
Rapid groundwater depletion has raised grave concerns about sustainable development in many parts of Texas, as well as in other parts of the world. Previous hydrologic investigations on groundwater levels in Texas were conducted mostly on aquifer-specific basis, and hence lacked state-wide panoramic...
Limestone rocks are an important source of ground water in the Piedmont and Appalachian areas of Maryland. The major limestone aquifers are the Cockeysville and Wakefield marbles and the Silver Run, Tomstown, Frederick, Grove, Waynesboro, Elbrook, Conococheague, Beekmantown, Stones River, Tonolowa...
Groundwater, as a precious resource hidden underground, is an important component of the global water system. Transboundary aquifers containing substantial amount of groundwater often carry crucial ecological and social implications. Yet, it is unfortunate that transboundary aquifers have hardly been in ...
Meeting today's food production demand in the 21st century in the United States will depend on ground-water. U.S. agriculture uses 49.5 billion gallons of groundwater per day, on average, for irrigation-65% of the nation's daily total of 76 billion gallons. Sustaining the nation's ground...
Arid lands, surprisingly, contain some of the world’s largest river systems, such as the Murray-Darling in Australia, the Rio Grande in North America, the Indus in Asia, and the Nile in Africa.These rivers and river systems are known as "exogenous" because their sources lie outside the ...

aRecharge to these pressure aquifers apparently occurs along the foot of the Darling Scrap and results from the downward percolation of rainfall through the Quaternary units and from leakage from the Moore River, Gingin Brook and other streams on the coastal plain. 再充电对这些压力蓄水层沿亲爱小块...
