Groundwater is an important source of drinking water in coastal regions with predominantly
unconsolidated sediments. To protect and manage drinking water extraction wells in these …

Transport in fractured media plays an important role in a range of processes, from rock
weathering and microbial processes to contaminant transport, and energy extraction and …

Heat as a tracer in fractured porous aquifers is more sensitive to fracture‐matrix processes
than a solute tracer. Temperature evolution as a function of time can be used to differentiate …

Chalk porosity plays a decisive role in the transport of solutes and heat in saturated chalk.
From a geological point of view, there are at least two types of porosity: the porosity of pores …

Groundwater of the unconfined Chalk aquifer in Champagne-Ardenne (NE France) is
contaminated by perchlorate (⁠ ClO 4−⁠), a persistent water-soluble anion. The Chalk …

Many basic hydrogeology definitions are relative and influenced by anthropocentrism. The
aquifer definition is an obvious example. Spatial and time scales influence the values of the …
