Groundwater is by far the largest unfrozen freshwater resource on the planet. It plays a
critical role as the bottom of the hydrologic cycle, redistributing water in the subsurface and …

Driven by the need for integrated management of groundwater (GW) and surface water
(SW), quantification of GW–SW interactions and associated contaminant transport has …

The interaction between surface water and groundwater constitutes a critical process to
understand the quantitative and qualitative regime of dependent hydrosystems. A multi …

Fifty years of hyporheic zone research have shown the important role played by the
hyporheic zone as an interface between groundwater and surface waters. However, it is only …

Understanding groundwater recharge is essential for successful management of water
resources and modeling fluid and contaminant transport within the subsurface. This book …

River‐groundwater interactions are at the core of a wide range of major contemporary
challenges, including the provision of high‐quality drinking water in sufficient quantities, the …

Core Ideas OZCAR is a network of sites studying the critical zone. OZCAR covers various
disciplines. OZCAR will help disciplines to work together for a better representation and …

Rivers are important ecosystems under continuous anthropogenic stresses. The hyporheic
zone is a ubiquitous, reactive interface between the main channel and its surrounding …

At the watershed scale, soil moisture is the major control for rainfall–runoff response,
especially where saturation excess runoff processes dominate. From the ecological point of …

Interactions between groundwater and surface water play a fundamental role in the
functioning of riparian ecosystems. In the context of sustainable river basin management it is …
