Contribution of standardized indexes to understand groundwater level fluctuations in response to meteorological conditions in cold and humid climates

Understanding the fluctuations in groundwater levels in response to meteorological conditions is challenging, especially given the slow transit time associated with groundwater reservoirs and the short duration of time series for groundwater levels. Nevert ...

Nature-based solution enhances resilience to flooding and catalyzes multi-benefits in coastal cities in the Global South

Jérôme Chenal, Paolo Perona, Charlotte Grossiord, Emmanuel Qays Dubois, Montana Marshall

Coastal cities are facing a rise in groundwater levels induced by sea level rise, further triggering saturation excess flooding where groundwater levels reach the topographic surface or reduce the storage capacity of the soil, thus stressing the existing i ...

Comparison of Three Imputation Methods for Groundwater Level Timeseries

Andrea Rinaldo

This study compares three imputation methods applied to the field observations of hydraulic head in subsurface hydrology. Hydrogeological studies that analyze the timeseries of groundwater elevations often face issues with missing data that may mislead bot ...

Comment on “Groundwater Affects the Geomorphic and Hydrologic Properties of Coevolved Landscapes” by Litwin et al

Sara Bonetti, Shashank Kumar Anand

The objective of this comment is to correct two sets of statements in Litwin et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2021JF006239), which consider our research work (Bonetti et al., 2018, https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2017.0693; Bonetti et al., 2020, https:// ...

Impacts of climate change on Swiss alluvial aquifers - A quantitative forecast focused on natural and artificial groundwater recharge by surface water infiltration

Sebastiano Piccolroaz, Carl Love Mikael Råman Vinnå

The sensitivity of future groundwater recharge and temperature development was investigated for three alluvial aquifers in the urban agglomeration of the city of Basel, Switzerland. For selected climate projections groundwater recharge and the associated t ...

Seasonal variability of groundwater level effects on the growth of Carex cinerascens in lake wetlands

Alexandre Buttler, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Luca Bragazza, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Wenjuan Feng

Groundwater level is crucial for wetland plant growth and reproduction, but the extent of its effect on plant growth can vary along with changed precipitation and temperature at different seasons. In this context, we investigated the effect of two groundwa ...

Impact Assessment of Pumping Parameters on Groundwater Bacterial Communities

Christof Holliger, Pierre Rossi, Noam Shani, Guillaume Laulan

Groundwater microbial community samples are traditionally collected using pumping techniques optimized for groundwater chemistry assessment, although the impact of groundwater pumping parameters on apparent bacterial community structures (BCSs) is not real ...

Ecology and Biogeography of Bacterial Communities Associated with Chloroethene-Contaminated Aquifers

Christof Holliger, Pierre Rossi, Noam Shani

Massive usage, along with careless handling, storage, spills, and leakages made chloroethenes (CEs) one of the most abundant classes of groundwater contaminants. Anaerobic organohalide respiring bacteria (OHRB) can couple reductive dechlorination of CEs wi ...

Analysis of the compaction phenomena due to the water injection in reservoirs with a three-phase geomechanical model

Lyesse Laloui, Mathieu Nuth

In the coastal regions, the land subsidence due to the industrial pumping of underground fluids such as methane is documented by the means of in situ surveys. The laboratory characterization of the gas bearing formations has also been published, which comp ...

Numerical modeling of tidal influence on density-dependent contaminant transport

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli

Transport of contaminants in coastal aquifers subject to tidal fluctuation is an important topic in hydrogeology as a consequence of the significant development of human activities near the shoreline. Despite this, relatively little work has been done to i ...
