Groundwater fauna (stygofauna) comprises organisms that have adapted to the dark
subterranean environment over a course of thousands and millions of years, typically having …

Dynamics of solute export from catchments can be classified in terms of chemostatic and
chemodynamic export regimes by an analysis of concentration–discharge relationships …

Lacustrine groundwater discharge (LGD) transports nutrients from a catchment to a lake,
which may fuel eutrophication, one of the major threats to our fresh waters. Unfortunately …

In addition to the anthropogenic sources for elevated concentrations of phosphorus (P) in
groundwater systems, the importance of geogenic enrichment of P warrants attention. To …

Geothermal energy plays an increasingly important role as a renewable energy source.
However, it induces temperature changes in natural thermally static groundwater …

Denitrification in groundwater is an important process that helps to maintain environmental
standards, yet there are very few studies that determine the spatial variation of denitrification …

The quality of near-surface groundwater reservoirs is controlled, but also threatened, by
manifold surface–subsurface interactions. Vulnerability studies typically evaluate the …

In this work the leaching of heavy metals from concrete in contact with different leachates
was investigated to quantify the influence of the leachate composition. Four different types of …

The biogeochemical cycling of phosphorus (P) in South and Southeast Asian floodplain and
delta aquifers has received insufficient attention in research studies, even though dissolved …

Estimated natural background levels (NBLs) are needed to assess groundwater chemical
status according to the EU Groundwater Directive. They are commonly derived for different …
