Assessing groundwater surface water interaction and groundwater discharge in a contaminated site in an industrial, sub-urbanized area

Jordi Batlle-Aguilar

A contaminated site related to a former coke factory, located in the alluvial plain of the Meuse River near Liège was investigated to characterize the nature and extend of underground contamination. The major objective of the investigation was to evaluate ...

Groundwater flow and chemical transport in subterranean estuaries are poorly understood despite their potentially important implications for chemical fluxes from aquifers to coastal waters. Here, a numerical study of the dynamics in a subterranean estuary ...

2007

The study was performed in the Sahelian part of Burkina Faso. The country is subject to difficult climatic conditions, a strong demographic growth and a continuous decrease in soil fertility. The resulting degradation affects the processes which govern eco ...

Méthodologie de dimensionnement des zones de protection des captages d'eaux souterraines contre les polluants chimiques persistants

Thierry Bussard

This research proposes a general methodology allowing the delimitation of protection areas for abstracted groundwater against persistent chemical contaminants for the setting up of: (1) remediation programmes in the event of contamination and (2) preventio ...

Application of PHREEQC on solute transport in groundwater

David Andrew Barry

With increasing groundwater contamination, the study of contaminant transport is becoming more and more important. Since chemical reactions occur simultaneously with contaminant transfer, these two aspects should be coupled in one model. PHREEQC is a simul ...

2004

Significant progress was made these last decades in the development of hydrogeological methods. However, these new methods are still very little used in the problematics of unstable slopes, mainly because of the hydrogeological complexity, which characteri ...

Typology of recent groundwaters from different aquifer environments based on geogenic tracer elements

A key problem in environmental science and in engineering geology is the often incomplete understanding of the origin of dissolved components in groundwater. The dissolved contents of trace elements in groundwater are of special importance for groundwater ...

Femtochemistry

Majed Chergui

A review with 51 refs. of the developments leading to the advent of femtochem. is presented, along with the major achievements that have marked the past fifteen years since the birth of the field. [on SciFinder (R)] ...

Efficient stochastic simulation of groundwater contaminant transport

David Andrew Barry

Due to the heterogeneity of natural groundwater systems, any quantitative description of aquifer hydraulic properties is subject to uncertainty. Consequently, prediction of groundwater transport is also subject to uncertainty. Stochastic approaches to tran ...

Typologie des aquifères du cristallin

This hydrogeological study of the crystalline aquifers of the Mont-Blanc and the Aiguilles Rouges massifs is part of the AQUITYP project, which has been carried out at the Geology Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (GEOLEP). ...
