Abstract:
This research aimed to investigate the spatial distribution of arsenic concentrations in shallow and deep groundwaters which were used as sources for drinking and domestic and agricultural uses. A geochemical modeling software PHREEQC was used to simulate equilibrium geochemical reactions of complex water–rock interactions to identify arsenic speciation and mineral saturation indices based on groundwater quality and hydrogeochemical conditions. In addition, the potential health risk from arsenic-contaminated groundwater consumption was assessed based on the method developed by the U.S. Environ

AbstractSince the 1990’s, the groundwater quality along the southern coast of the Western Cape Province of South Africa has been affected by increasing land use activities.

Abstract:
Abstract Groundwater is a vital resource that significantly contributes to the annual supply. On the other hand, Overexploitation has resulted in a significant reduction in groundwater supplies and, in some cases, soil sinking. Therefore, it’s critical to assess the possible zone of groundwater rejuvenation to safeguard water quality and manage subsurface water systems. Potential groundwater zones are detected using RS and GIS technologies. GIS technologies were used to build the composite map. Accurate data is required to determine the criteria used to estimate the potential groundwater zone.

Securing water resources is a complicated issue in Kazakhstan. Only 36% of Kazakhstan’s rural population has access to a centralized water supply and 57.3% use groundwater accessed by wells and boreholes.

Groundwater depletion, pollution, waterlogging, and salinization are all widespread in Kazakhstan. Previously, 500 self-flowing and, within this project, 204 wells were investigated in southern Kazakhstan, the Zhambyl region

PVI science showed that petroleum hydrocarbons are subjected to natural attenuation processes in the source zone and during the vapor transport through the vadose zone. Specifically, in the presence of oxygen, aerobic biodegradation typically reduces or eliminates the potential for PVI.

Abstract:
The 2023 Interconnected Disaster Risks report examines six immediate and increasing risks across the world: the accelerating extinctions of species, the depletion of groundwater resources, the retreat of mountain glaciers, the growing number of places facing uninhabitable temperatures, the rise in uninsurability and the growing amount of space debris. Through literature review and expert consultation, we define “risk tipping points” for each of the six cases, representing the point at which a given socioecological system ceases to buffer risks and to provide its expected functions, after which

Abstract:
The HKH Snow Update 2025 highlights a significant decline in seasonal snow across the Hindu Kush Himalaya region, with snow persistence 23.6% below normal — the lowest in 23 years. This trend, now in its third consecutive year, threatens water security for nearly two billion people. All twelve major river basins, including the Indus, Ganges, and Brahmaputra, experienced below-average snow cover, with the Mekong and Salween basins losing over 50%. The report warns of potential lower river flows, increased groundwater reliance, and heightened drought risk, urging improved water management, stron

Abstract:
Research into the fate of pharmaceutical compounds (PCs) in the environment has focused on aspects of removal efficiency during sewage treatment, degradation in surface water and accumulation in soils and sediments. However, very little information is available on the binding interactions of pharmaceuticals with dissolved organic matter (DOM) originating from wastewater treatment. Such interactions can significantly affect the transport potential of PCs in soils by altering compound affinity for soil particle surfaces. Our primary hypothesis is that the transport potential of PCs in soils is s

Abstract:
The goal of Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN) riparian monitoring is to determine long-term trends in hydrologic, geomorphic, and vegetative properties of wadeable streams in the context of changes in other ecological drivers, stressors, and processes. This information is intended to provide early warning of resource degradation and determine natural variability of wadeable streams. This report summarizes NCPN monitoring of Courthouse Wash in Arches National Park (NP) from 2010 to 2019. The focus of this report is to (1) present geomorphology and vegetation data from five reaches monito

Abstract:
Water is a scarce, but vital, resource at Hovenweep National Monument (NM). The National Park Service has prioritized long-term monitoring of water resources at the monument through a variety of programs and indicators since 1999. The purpose of this report is to evaluate water-quantity and water-quality data collected at long-term monitoring sites in Hovenweep NM from 1999 to 2021 for trends over time, and to summarize site-characterization data for currently monitored locations. Data are available for three active monitoring stations—Square Tower Spring, Hackberry Pool, and Goodman Point Spr

Abstract:
The Huntsville 7.5' quadrangle lies within Ogden Valley, a back valley of the Wasatch Range in Weber County, Utah, about 6 miles (10 km) east-northeast of Ogden City. Settled in 1849, Ogden Valley was a pioneer frontier settlement and served primarily as a small farming community until recently. The area is currently characterized by rapid suburban growth. The quadrangle is centered on Ogden Valley with the Wasatch Range on the east and west side of the valley. The Ogden Valley f loor lies at an elevation of about 4900 feet (1494 m) with surrounding mountains reaching elevations of more than 9
