This book focuses on many aspects of mass transfer dynamics of contamination in fractured media. First, it discusses the concept, structure and properties of fractured media. It then traces topics such as basic law of seepage in fractured media, the basic mass transfer theory of fractured media, numerical simulation of mass transfer process in fractured media, mathematical model and parameter inversion of mass transfer in fractured media and the frontier of mass transfer in fractured media. The book is a comprehensive reference for both graduate students and scientific and technological teams working in the fields of hydrogeology, water conservation, mining and civil engineering, environmental engineering, transportation, civil air defense and national defense.

"The long-awaited Second Edition of Introduction to Groundwater Hydrology presents the fundamentals of groundwater hydrology, as well as the knowledge and approaches needed to address contemporary problems in hydrogeology. The theme of the book is groundwater, broadly defined with a focus on fundamentals and problems necessary to deal with aquifer depletion and associated issues. It covers the theory and practice of groundwater from basic principles of physical and chemical hydrogeology to their application to traditional and emerging areas of practice. Thoroughly updated, the early chapters in this new edition, discuss the hydrologic cycle and associated near surface processes like infiltration, overland flow, and streamflow in the hydrologic cycle. Subsequent chapters cover theory of groundwater flow (e.g., concepts of hydraulic head, Darcy equation, etc.), ground water/surface water interactions, and unsaturated flow and fractured media. Techniques of water resources investigations and regional groundwater flow are also examined in detail. The latter part of the book focuses on problems associated with depletion of aquifers worldwide and tools and knowledge necessary for sustainable management. Concepts around non-point source contamination and geogenic contaminants are also treated in detail"

This book presents an updated state-of-the-art for managed aquifer recharge (MAR) for MENA regions. MENA regions are home to 6% of the world's population but only possess 1.4% of its water resources with almost absolute scarcity. Groundwater is the primary source of water in 54% of MENA countries. Therefore, the MENA regions seek sustainable management solutions amid its arid climate and rising demands from urbanization and agriculture. MAR aims to help sustain groundwater resources. This book explores MAR as a strategic approach to reducing water security by enhancing groundwater supplies. Utilizing techniques such as soil aquifer recharge, aquifer storage and recovery, rainfall harvesting, and riverbank filtration. The presented case studies offer deep insights into MAR methods, their implementation, and MAR technologies. The beneficiaries of the book include postgraduate students, academics, policymakers, and practitioners in water resources.
