Hard rock mines have significant effects on the territories where they operate, through both
infrastructure construction as well as resource use. Due to their extractive activities, these …

Quantification of evapotranspiration (ET) and infiltration from vegetated stormwater control
measures (SCMs), such as rain gardens, is necessary to properly assess their volume …

The focus of this study was to evaluate the potential reuse of mixed mine tailings and waste
rock in water-balance covers (WBCs). Reuse of mine waste in geoengineering applications …

A 30 m long× 20 m wide capillary barrier cover (CBC) test site was constructed at the
Jiangcungou landfill in Xi'an, China. The cover consisted of a compacted loess layer with a …

A study was conducted at 12 sites across the United States to evaluate field-scale hydrology
of landfill final covers using water balance methods to control percolation. The sites were …

Rain gardens are a commonly utilized stormwater control measure (SCM) that depend on
infiltration and evapotranspiration (ET) for runoff reduction. Altering soil media, media depth …

A field investigation was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of store-and-release (SR)
covers made with different phosphate mine wastes in reducing water infiltration (system …

A field study was conducted at the Kettara mine site located in arid climatic conditions in
Morocco. The goal was to assess the performance of an inclined store-and-release (SR) …

Abstract In this paper, 2-dimensional, hydro-mechanically coupled finite element analyses
are conducted to assess the performance of an engineered barrier, constructed from natural …

The performance of an evapotranspiration (ET) cover for a landfill exceeds that of a
conventional landfill final cover. Its low percolation and high evapotranspiration rely on the …
