This volume on the recharge of phreatic aquifiers in (semi-)arid areas includes coverage of: recharge principles, problems and developments; recharge from precopitation; recharge from intermittent flow; and recharge from permanent water bodies. Ca...

With water security being so crucial an issue in the twenty-first century, this text provides topical discussion on related issues, such as: hydrological processes, water resources management, and rainfall in arid and semi-arid regions.

Explaining the nature and value of urban groundwater, this text, written by a UNESCO/IAH group, includes a discussion of six urban environments ranging from mature industrial cities to weathered crystalline aquifers and arid-zone cities.

Presents, in a simple, but scientifically rigorous manner, the consequences of natural processes to stable isotope concentrations and radioactivities, but also containing indications of possible applications without the pretension of a cookbook.

The History of Hydrogeology, is a first attempt to bring the story of the evolution of the science of hydrogeology together from a country or region specific viewpoint. It does not cover history to the present day, nor does it deal with all countries involved in groundwater studies, but rather takes the story for specific key countries up and until

Groundwater response to global changes is a complex function that depends on climate change and variability, topography, aquifer characteristics, vegetation dynamics, and human activities. This book synthesizes the current state of knowledge, methodologies, and scientific approaches for assessing climate change effects on groundwater resources a
