Despite its strategic importance, no global inventory of this resource had been compiled to date. Since 2000, UNESCO's International Hydrological Program (IHP) has been participating in the establishment of a groundwater database.AnonymousJournal of Environmental Health...
However, water is scarce. Whatever seasonalrainfalls is collected in tanks and reservoirs and is used for drinking and domestic purposes. Mostgroundwatercannot be utilized, because it lies deep underground and is often saline. Goodaquifershave been detected in the central part of the desert. Apart...
With the increasing focus on the stimulation of reservoirs with low matrix permeability, the flow law of underground fluids in a natural fracture network and matrix pores, and the interaction between fluids and natural fractures, have become important factors in the study of underground aquifers and...
These movements might be caused by changes in the distribution of load on the hard ground beneath or by water extraction from the aquifers. The monitoring of ground displacements is currently most often carried out with the use of traditional surveying methods, mainly precise levelling. Due to ...
The remainder is pumped from underground aquifers. As more water has been removed from these aquifers, the sandy soils have subsided, leading to fissuring and structural damage of the surface and the formation of large sinkholes. These fissures are compounded by the damage caused by occasional ...
One of the more beautiful, unusual and useful map projections ever devised was created by cartographerBernard Cahill. The butterfly projection was first published in theScottish Geographical Magazinein 1909. Cahill (1866-1944) later applied for a US patent to protect his creation. ...

The group has developed a pilot technology that can monitor and track the use of groundwater in real time along the delta of the San Joaquin River, one of the largest and most at-risk aquifers in North America.68 • Earth Observation and Remote Sensing analytics: These technologies can ...

Springs come out of the earth in Florida because the limestone bedrock beneath the state is very porous. Rainfall soaks into the ground and fills natural underground reservoirs called aquifers, building up pressure. Water must emerge at the surface through crevices in the landscape. ...
