This chapter focuses almost exclusively on marine evaporites and in particular on how the
chemistry of seawater is reflected in the mineralogy and facies distribution of deposits in …

Integrated dynamic water and chloride balance models with a catchment‐scale hydrological
model (PRMS) are used to investigate the response of a terminal tropical lake, Lake Abiyata …

Purpose: This review examines the evidence for and significance of pre-conjunctival tear
temperature being higher than central pre-corneal temperature with associated more rapid …

Playa systems are driven by evaporation processes, yet the mechanisms by which
evaporation occurs through playa salt crusts are still poorly understood. In this study we …

Abstract The Aral Sea is the biggest saline lake in Central Asia. This brackish water body
was the world's fourth largest lake before it started to shrink in the 1960's due to water …

Abstract The Aral Sea was one of the largest lakes in the world before it started to shrink in
the 1960s due to water withdrawal for agricultural irrigation. Precipitation decreased from 9.4 …

The dramatic shrinkage of the Aral Sea that has occurred after 1960 has affected also
groundwater resources in the region, and this effect needs to be clarified and quantified …

The present review is intended to encompass the English language heat transfer papers
published in 1999. The papers have been placed into a number of subject categories. While …

Salt pans are unique wetland ecosystems. In the Austrian Seewinkel region, salt pans are in
an increasingly vulnerable state due to groundwater drainage and heightened climatic …

Evaporation involves the change in state of a liquid to a vapour. The evaporation rate from
salt‐water resources depends mostly on saturated vapour pressure above its surface. On …
