  1. 1. Hydrochemical investigation and vulnerability assessment of the Los Bambinos aquifer in Costa Rica

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Jennifer Berg; Marco Kraus Schmitz; [2020]
    Keywords : Hydrochemistry; Aquifer pollution vulnerability assessment; Los Bambinos aquifer; Barva aquifer; Alajuela; GOD; DRASTIC; Groundwater quality; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this study, a hydrochemical and biological investigation, and a vulnerability assessment were conducted on the Los Bambinos aquifer during the spring of 2020. A literature study on previous studies conducted in the area was also made. This aquifer is located on the southwestern slope of the Barva volcano, northeast of Alajuela, Costa Rica. READ MORE

  3. 2. Hydrology of the karstic basin of Sprimont, Belgium : On the use of spectrofluorimetry and pharmaceutical substances as a supporting tool for hydrochemistry analysis

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Romain Deleu; [2018]
    Keywords : hydrology; hydrogeology; karst; karstic; spectrofluorimetry; pharmaceutical; hydrochemistry; spring; losing stream; self-organizing map; SOM; Belgium; aquifer; undergound; stream; nitrogen; carbon; isotopes; contamination; risk; human impact; sewage; wastewater; tracer;

    Abstract : The strong variation in carbonate content of the geological formations in the basin of Sprimont, Belgium, implies different groundwater behaviours in the substratum. The existence of carbonated materials such as limestone is responsible for the existence of a well-developed karstic system restricted to the Carboniferous materials which has a strong impact on the local hydrology and hydrogeology.

  4. 3. How does drainage affect hydrology and hydrochemistry in boreal peatlands?

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Albin Enetjärn; [2018]
    Keywords : trenching; ditching; draining; dikning; dikningseffekter; torvmark; markavvattning;

    Abstract : Boreal peatlands are substantial terrestrial carbon storages. They are also important for the function of several large-scale cycles and systems that humanity benefits from. Drainage affects peatlands by establishing a new, lower equilibrium for the groundwater table. READ MORE

  5. 4. Variable Specific Discharge and Its Influence on Mass Export of Carbon, Sulphur, Calcium and Magnesium in a Boreal Forest Catchment

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Isabell Gärtner; [2016]
    Keywords : Hydrochemistry; hydrology; specific discharge; boreal catchment; Hydrokemi; hydrologi; avrinning; avrinningsområde i barrskog;

    Abstract : Considerable research efforts are made in order to understand the global carbon cycle and how it will affect future climate change and vice versa. To be able to calculate the export of carbon from a certain area, discharge is one of the most important variables together with stream concentrations. READ MORE
