Groundwater recharge mechanisms inferred from isoscapes in a complex tropical mountainous region
(AGU Publications, 2016-05-23)
Stable isotope variations and groundwater recharge mechanisms remain poorly understood across the tropics, particularly in Central America. Here stable isotopes (δ18O and δ2H) in groundwater, surface water, and rainfall ...
Tracer hydrology in a hydrometric data-limited and complex tropical mountainous region: the case of the Central American Isthmus
(European Geosciences Union, 2019)
Numerous socio-economic activities are dependent on the seasonal rainfall and groundwater recharge cycle across the Central American Isthmus. Demographic growth and unregulated land use changes resulted in extensive surface ...
Groundwater flow modeling using iMOD for Barva and Colima aquifers in the Central Valley of Costa Rica: validation of a conceptual model using tracer data
(Universidad Nacional de Salta, 2018)
A stationary numerical model of groundwater flow was developed using iMOD to better understand the recharge processes within Barva and Colima aquifers (BCS), located in the northwestern region of the Central Valley of Costa ...
Groundwater and surface water connectivity within the recharge area of Guarani aquifer system during El Niño 2014–2016
(Wiley & Sons, 2018)
Recharge areas of the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS) are particularly sensitive and vulnerable
to climate variability; therefore, the understanding of infiltration mechanisms for aquifer recharge and surface run‐off generation ...
Baseflow recession analysis in the inland Pacific Northwest of the United States
(Springer Nature, 2015)
The storage-discharge relationships of 26 water sheds in the inland Pacific Northwest of the United States
were analyzed. Four fitting methods were used to obtain
the baseflow coefficients: lower envelope, organic corre ...
Identifying groundwater recharge connections in the Moscow (USA) sub-basin using isotopic tracers and a soil moisture routing model
(Springer, 2016)
Globally, aquifers are suffering from large abstrac tions resulting in groundwater level declines. These declines can be caused by excessive abstraction for drinking water, irrigation purposes or industrial use. Basaltic ...
Groundwater age and recharge processes in a tropical volcanic aquifer
(Universidad Nacional (Costa Rica), 2019)
La recarga de agua subterránea en acuíferos volcánicos altamente fracturados sigue siendo poco conocida en los trópicos húmedos. El rápido crecimiento demográfico y los cambios no regulados en el uso de la tierra dieron ...
Isotopic composition in precipitation and groundwater in the northern mountainous region of the Central Valley of Costa Rica
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The linkage between precipitation and recharge is still poorlyunderstood in the Central America region. This study focuses onstable isotopic composition in precipitation and groundwater in the northern mountainous region ...
