Intensive use of land resources in arid and semi-arid regions exert serious pressures on
groundwater resources and jeopardize further socio-economical developments. The Amman …

Soil bulk density (ρ b) measurement is essential for many soil management and engineering
applications in addition to the emerging need to estimate soil carbon reserves. Recently …

The importance of groundwater portability and the possible sources of anthropogenic
contamination have led to the development of intrinsic groundwater vulnerability mapping. In …

Cadmium (Cd) concentration and its chemical speciation were studied in surface dust
samples collected from 26 locations at Amman–Zarqa basin highways. The study area …

There are many factors controlling groundwater pollution and vulnerability. However, the
factors' weights are still not reasonably investigated. In order to assess groundwater quality …

This study investigates the sources and pathways of groundwater contamination by heavy
fuel oil (HFO) at the Al Hussein Thermal Power Station (HTPS) in northern Jordan using …

Este libro tiene por objetivo mostrarle al lector aspectos básicos sobre los fragmentos de
roca en el suelo y denotar cómo estos afectan la infiltración y las propiedades hidráulicas …

The conservation of groundwater is a priority for Jordan to cope with its water crises. Climate
change and rapid population growth associated with anthropogenic activities have …

In order to study frost heaving characteristics of gravel soil pavement structures of airports in
alpine regions, we designed a 1: 10 small pavement structure model to conduct laboratory …

This study aimed at testing the hypothesis that augmenting Landsat TM-based models for
