Agricultural production of high value crops in Chile's Central Valley is highly dependent on surface and groundwater resources. They are connected and together form an integrated hydrological system, the individual components ...

Drainage turns peatlands from natural carbon sinks into hotspots of greenhouse gas (GHG)emissions from soils due to alterations in hydrological and biogeochemical processes. As a consequence of drainage-induced mineralisation ...

Rivers are important ecosystems under continuous anthropogenic stresses. The hyporheic zone is a ubiquitous, reactive interface between the main channel and its surrounding sediments along the river network. We elaborate ...

The GRACE mission that was launched in 2002 has impressively proven the feasibility of low-orbit satellite-to-satellite tracking for Earth gravity observations. Especially mass transport related to Earth's hydrological ...

Within the design process of district heating networks, the maximum friction forces between the pipeline and the surrounding soil are calculated from the radial stress state and the coefficient of contact friction. For the ...

Environmental hazards are caused by uranium mining legacies and enhanced radioactivity in utilized groundwater and surface water resources. Knowledge of uranium speciation in these waters is essential for predicting ...
