Seawater intrusion (SI) is a global issue, exacerbated by increasing demands for freshwater
in coastal zones and predisposed to the influences of rising sea levels and changing …

Serious environmental problems are emerging in the River Nile basin and its groundwater
resources. Recent years have brought scientific evidence of climate change and …

A complete treatment of the theory and practice of groundwater engineering, The Handbook
of Groundwater Engineering, Second Edition provides a current and detailed review of how …

In this paper, a numerical model is presented to simulate the density-driven flow in
heterogeneous porous media with micro-and macro-fractures. The micro-fractures (like …

Modeling variable density flow (VDF) in fractured porous media is computationally
challenging. The challenges are mainly related to:(i) the high permeability contrast between …

Despite that fractured coastal aquifers are widespread, the influence of fracture
characteristics on seawater intrusion (SWI) has not been explored in previous studies. This …

Using heat as an active tracer for aquifer characterization is a topic of increasing interest. In
this study, we investigate the potential of using heat tracer tests for characterization of a …

The application of metamodelling frameworks is a popular approach to handle the
computational cost arising from complex computer simulations and global optimization …

Saltwater intrusion is a naturally occurring phenomenon that is exacerbated significantly by
excessive groundwater exploitation in coastal aquifers. In order to determine the extent of …

Solute transport is one of the major topics in geological studies. Fracture is a significant
characteristic of natural porous media, where the solute can transport due to its higher …
