Arsenic (As) in groundwater from natural and anthropogenic sources is one of the most common pollutants worldwide affecting people ecosystems. A large dataset >3600 wells employed to spatially simulate depth-averaged As concentration phreatic confined aquifers Padana Plain (Northern Italy). Results in-depth geostatistical analysis via PCA simulations within a Monte Carlo framework allow understanding variability concentrations aquifers. The probable contaminated zones are located along...
Coastal freshwater resources are commonly under high risk of being contaminated from seawater. The main processes that affect seawater intrusion groundwater overexploitation, land use change, and climate change effects. In this context coastal lagoons represent the more sensitive environments prone to intrusion. Numerical modelling is a useful tool understand predict study, three-dimensional SEAWAT model employed simulate aquifers Variconi Oasis (Italy). present simulation was divided into...
The rapid decline in both quality and availability of freshwater resources on our planet necessitates their thorough assessment to ensure sustainable usage. growing demand for water industrial, agricultural, domestic sectors poses significant challenges managing surface groundwater resources. This study tests proposes a hybrid evaluation approach determine Groundwater Quality Indices (GQIs) irrigation (IRRI), seawater intrusion (SWI), potability (POT), finalized the spatial distribution...
The issue of freshwater salinization in coastal areas has grown importance with the increase demand groundwater supply and more frequent droughts. However, spatial patterns salinity contamination are not easy to be understood, as well their numerical modeling is subject various kinds uncertainty. This paper offers a robust, flexible, reliable geostatistical methodology provide stochastic assessment distribution alluvial areas. applied aquifer Campania (Italy), where 83 monitoring wells...
Abstract To understand the spatial distribution and possible sources of high ammonium concentration in unconfined coastal aquifer Po River Delta lowland (Italy), a detailed characterization inorganic nitrogen species was completed. A total 59 boreholes were drilled to collect core samples groundwater aquifer. Among them, four piezometers, located along representative flow line, chosen monitor concentrations with depth. Ammonium is prevalent groundwater, its increases depth salinity. Very are...
Abstract. The objective of the study is to provide global grids (0.5°) revised annual coefficients for Priestley–Taylor (P-T) and Hargreaves–Samani (H-S) evapotranspiration methods after calibration based on ASCE (American Society Civil Engineers)-standardized Penman–Monteith method (the includes two reference crops: short-clipped grass tall alfalfa). analysis also development a grid solar radiation (Rs) estimations using respective Rs formula H-S. was gridded climatic data period 1950–2000....
Soil quality is fundamental for ecosystem long term functionality, productivity and resilience to current climatic changes. Despite its importance, soil lost degraded at dramatic rates worldwide. In Europe, the Mediterranean areas are a hotspot erosion land degradation due combination of conditions, soils, geomorphology anthropic pressure. organic carbon (SOC) considered key indicator as it relates other functions supporting crucial services. present study, functional relationships among SOC...
Despite efforts to protect the hydrosystems from increasing pollution, nitrate (NO3−) remains a major groundwater pollutant worldwide, and determining its origin is still crucial challenging. To disentangle origins fate of high NO3− (>900 mg/L) in Sidi Bouzid North basin (Tunisia), numerical flow model (MODFLOW-2005) an advective particle tracking (MODPATH) have been combined with geostatistical analyses on quality hydrogeological characterization. Correlations between chemical elements...
Abstract With global warming and sea level rise, many coastal systems will experience increased levels of inundation storm flooding, especially along sandy lowland areas, such as the Northern Adriatic coast (Italy). Understanding how extreme events may directly affect groundwater hydrology in shallow unconfined aquifers is important to assess vulnerability quantify freshwater resources. This study investigates aquifer response events. The transitory permanent effects waves are evaluated...
