Centred on research and development in solar energy applications to the built environment, the international conference CISBAT 2007 once more highlighted a good number of interesting technological innovations. The scientific discoveries and developments pr ...
This paper presents a theoretical model of flow and chemical transport processes in subterranean estuaries (unconfined brackish groundwater aquifers at the ocean- land interface). The model shows that groundwater circulation and oscillating flow, caused by ...
Groundwater regime has an important role in coastal sediment transport near the coast and beach profile changes. Hitherto, accurate and complete nature of the interaction between wave motions, underground water and beach sediment transport is not yet known ...
Gases trapped in polar ice provide our most direct record of the changes in greenhouse gas levels during the past 150,000 years. The best documented trace-gas records are for CO2 and CH4. The measurements corresponding to the industrial period document the ...

Previous studies on tidal water table dynamics in unconfined coastal aquifers have focused on the inland propagation of oceanic tides in the cross-shore direction based on the assumption of a straight coastline. Here, two- dimensional analytical solutions ...
Most previous investigations on tide-induced watertable fluctuations in coastal aquifers have been based on one- dimensional models that describe the processes in the cross- shore direction alone, assuming negligible along-shore variability. A recent study ...
A numerical study was conducted to investigate the influence of tides on the fate of terrestrially-derived BTEX discharging through an unconfined aquifer to coastal waters. Previous studies have revealed that tide-induced seawater circulations create an ac ...
Predictions of water table fluctuations in coastal aquifers are needed for numerous coastal and water resources engineering problems. Most previous investigations have been based on the Boussinesq equation for the case of a vertical beach. In this note an ...
Approximately 70% of the world's population lives in coastal areas, and the majority of these people depend on coastal aquifers for freshwater. The fragility of these aquifers and their sensitivity to human activity demand informed, competent management to ...
