Terra Nova, 23, 145–161, 2011 Abstract The hydrogeology of superficial (∼ 0–100 m bgl)
Hard Rock Aquifers (HRA; ie plutonic and metamorphic rocks) has so far been dominated by …

Geospatial technology has become one of the leading tools in the field of groundwater
research, which helps in assessing, monitoring and conserving groundwater resources. It …

Influences of hydraulic conductivity (K) heterogeneities on bedrock groundwater (BG) flow
systems in mountainous topography are investigated using a conceptual 2D numerical …

Resolving the potential groundwater yield zonation of sandstone aquifers occurring at
depths of several hundred meters has been an important and challenging objective of the …

In the 21st century, water resource management will be a major socioeconomic issue and
an essential component of progress in semi-arid regions. The Soudano-Sahelian region of …

Tunneling in urban areas demands an accurate characterization of the shallow subsurface
to minimize risks during excavation. Unexpected high water inflows constitute a major …

The scarcity of fresh water resources is a major challenge facing Saudi Arabia. Groundwater
is the major conventional water source in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, it is important to identify …

Geological structures, such as faults and fractures, appear as image discontinuities or
lineaments in remote sensing data. Geologic lineament mapping is a very important issue in …

To investigate the biases and trends in observations of the permeability structures of fault
zones in various geoscience disciplines, we review and compile a database of published …

Multiple geographic information system (GIS) datasets, including joint orientations from nine
bedrock outcrops, inferred faults, topographic lineaments, geophysical data (eg regional …
