Los objetivos del trabajo son evaluar la evolución temporal y espacial de la recarga al Acuífero del Cuaternario del Campo de Cartagena desde 1970 a 2022 y generar mapas de entrada para un modelo numérico de flujo de agua subterránea. Para alcanzarlos se han recopilado datos meteorológicos, se ha compilado y contrastado la información disponible so...

The objective of this paper is to establish a definition of deep aquifers, develop a methodological proposal to help select them as strategic groundwater reserves and develop a first inventory of deep aquifers in peninsular Spain, organized by hydrographic districts. The basic premises followed to consider a permeable formation as a deep aquifer ar...

The Talave tunnel (TT) is an infrastructure of a major water transfer from the Tajo river basin (center Spain) to the Segura river basin (SE Spain), crossing the Júcar river basin. The tunnel was drilled between 1969 and 1978. It is 32 km long, N/NW-S/SE oriented, has a maximum depth of 320 m, intersects several aquifers, and its southern stretch f...

El agua subterránea es la principal fuente de consumo en muchos centros urbanos y áreas rurales de Bolivia, tal es el caso del Municipio de San Pedro ubicado en el departamento de Santa Cruz. El presente estudio se realizó con la Received 04 12 2021 Accepted 04 26 2020 Published 04 30 2021 Vol. 38, No.1, pp. 46-55, Ene./Abr.2021 Revista Boliviana d...

La presencia de elevadas concentraciones de arsénico encontradas en el agua de consumo de dos sitios geográficamente distantes en Bolivia, ha requerido el diseño, la construcción y la implementación de un sistema de remoción de arsénico para así obtener agua más segura para su consumo. Uno de los sitios se encuentra en una unidad educativa de la zo...

Seismic events can affect the physico-chemical characteristics of groundwater. These anomalies are of a pre-seismic, co-seismic and post-seismic nature and correspond to pulse variations, sudden increases and decreases without return to initial values and upward or downward changes in trend. Continuous and in situ conductivity and temperature monit...

Groundwater recharge is one of the key variables for aquifer management and also one of the most difficult to be evaluated with acceptable accuracy. This is especially relevant in semiarid areas, where the processes involved in recharge are widely variable. Uncertainty should be estimated to know how reliable recharge estimations are. Groundwater r...

Groundwater from shallow aquifers and surface water from rivers of the southern part of Poopó Lake basin within the Bolivian Altiplano have significant quality problems such as, high salinity and high concentrations of arsenic (As). The extent of As contamination is observed in the studied groundwater over large parts of the study area. Surface-wat...

Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) of water systems supplied by groundwater is an unconsidered matter; even more in the case of groundwater-based systems in which over-exploitation of aquifers takes place. There are plenty of stressed water systems based on groundwater with serious and multidisciplinary conflicts due to the absence of a r...

The intense droughts suffered in the Segura River basin (SE Spain) have brought about a significant increase in the extraction of groundwater from numerous aquifers, one of which is the Vega Media del Segura alluvial aquifer (where the city of Murcia is located). The top portion of it is composed of soft, cohesive deposits with more or less permeab...
