Urban groundwater is a heritage at risk because urban land use practises puts enormous
and highly complex pressure on this resource. In this article, we review urban groundwater …

Property economics favours the vertical development of cities but flow of groundwater can
be affected by the use of underground space in them. This review article presents the state …

The impacts of anthropogenic modifications to the landscape on groundwater recharge
rates, locations, and mechanisms are reviewed. The two major categories of change …

A superposition of several thermal processes leads to an elevation of groundwater
temperatures of up to 9° C above the natural state in the city of Basel, Switzerland. The …

Increasing anthropogenic impacts lead to elevated temperatures of the shallow subsurface,
including the unsaturated and groundwater saturated zone, in many urban areas in …

The shallow subsurface in urban areas is increasingly used by shallow geothermal energy
systems as a renewable energy resource and as a cheap cooling medium, eg for building …

This study presents the development of tools for the sustainable thermal management of a
shallow unconsolidated urban groundwater body in the city of Basel (Switzerland). The …

Underground structures have a major influence on groundwater temperature and have a
major contribution on the anthropogenic heat fluxes into urban aquifers. Groundwater …

Shallow subsurface thermal regimes in urban areas are increasingly impacted by
anthropogenic activities, which include infrastructure development like underground traffic …

This work presents preliminary evaluation elements for geothermal potential assessment
and thermal influences of planned tunnel infrastructures for the urban agglomeration of …
