Although the widths of fault damage zones commonly show a positive correlation with
displacements, these relationships also show a somewhat scattered distribution. We believe …

Deformation along faults in the shallow crust (< 1 km) introduces permeability heterogeneity
and anisotropy, which has an important impact on processes such as regional groundwater …

Human activities and climate change threaten coldwater organisms in freshwater
ecosystems by causing rivers and streams to warm, increasing the intensity and frequency of …

Abstract Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) technology enables downhole temperature
monitoring to study hydrogeological processes at unprecedentedly high frequency and …

A review of coupled groundwater and heat transfer theory is followed by an introduction to
geothermal measurement techniques. Thereafter, temperaturedepth profiles (geotherms) …

Clay smear is a collection of fault processes and resulting fault structures that form when
normal faults deform layered sedimentary sections. These elusive structures have attracted …

Highly efficient stimulating fracture network is crucial for the utilization and operation of
enhanced geothermal systems, in which involved heat transfer and fluid flow process highly …

Springs sustain groundwater-dependent ecosystems and provide freshwater for human use.
Springs often occur because faults modify groundwater flow pathways leading to discharge …

Hydrothermal systems involving dormant faults within orogenic belts are rarely targeted for
geothermal exploration, partly because of the complexity of the 3‐D topography, the …

The detection of preferential flow paths and the characterization of their hydraulic properties
are major challenges in fractured rock hydrology. In this study, we propose to use …
