A new computer algorithm that can "fill in" underground water levels in areas where quality data is not available could lead to improved models of groundwater flow in regions where pumping and aquifer ...

A general mathematical theory that predicts how cracks spread through materials like glass and ice can also predict the direction in which rivers will grow. The group tested the theory on 255 streams ...

Groundwater is a key resource for water users in California’s Central Valley, a major agricultural hub with an economic output of tens of billions of dollars annually. Surface deformation in the ...

Groundwater is the largest source of freshwater, one of the world's most precious natural resources and vital for crops and drinking water. It is found under our very feet in the cracks and pores in ...

A zone of nitrogen-contaminated groundwater associated with a barnyard was studied to determine the quantity of inorganic nitrogen reaching the groundwater from the barnyard. From piezometric ...
