Environmental isotopes are essential in hydrogeological studies, thanks to their contribution
to the understanding of aquifers dynamics, vulnerability, water resources assessment, and …

This study investigated potentially toxic elements (PTEs) pollution in groundwater across the
Maros karst area. The groundwater quality was evaluated using three indexing methods, the …

The stability of a rock slope is strongly influenced by the pattern of groundwater flow through
the fracture system, which may lead to an increase in the water pressure in partly open joints …

Groundwater in karst aquifers is frequently tapped for drinking purposes, due to frequent
huge volumes of resources. Unfortunately, vulnerability of these aquifers can be high, due to …

The entanglement between active tectonics and karst systems is well-known in the literature.
Karst systems are sound recorders of continental deformation in terms of brittle structures …

In the framework of landslides, the hydrogeological features play an essential role in slope
stability, governing water movement and thus resulting in modification of the effective stress …

Carbonate aquifers are characterised by strong heterogeneities and their modelling is often
a challenging aspect in hydrological studies. Understanding carbonate aquifers can be …

The highest part of the Nera River basin (Central Italy) hosts significant water resources for
drinking, hydroelectric, and aquaculture purposes. The river is fed by fractured large …

Mountainous zones are often characterized by complex orography and contacts between
different aquifers that usually complicate the use of isotope hydrology techniques. The …

The analysis of geochemical markers is a known valid tool to explore the water sources and
understand the main factors affecting natural water quality, which are known issues of …
