the leachates of El-Ukheidersolid waste disposalsites directly reach the river path on days when their liquid loads exceed evaporation and infiltration potentials. The water quality of the Yarmouk River reflects the land uses within the catchment area, which are still restricted to rainfed and som...
Fresh orthogneiss for a thin-section and microprobe study was taken from an outcrop near soil pit no. 5 (Fig. 1b). Liquid samples for isotope determinations (open-area precipitation, spruce and beech canopy throughfall, soil water from the depth of 60 cm, and runoff) were collected between...

apart from the areas that are invaded by IATs, mainlyAcacia mearnsii;Pinusspp., Eucalyptusspp. andAcacia longifolia. IATs alter vegetation water-use characteristics in ways that reduce runoff and decrease groundwater recharge. For example, the trees are taller, and have greater leaf area indices ...
