Gb-SAR interferometry displacement measurements during dewatering in construction works : case of La Sagrera railway station in Barcelona, Spain
(2016-04-29)
Article
Open AccessConstruction processes require monitoring to ensure safety and to control the new and existing structures. Traditional monitoring is based on land surveys and geotechnical instruments and only allows for point-like ... -
Carbon dioxide and helium dissolved gases in groundwater at central Tenerife Island, Canary Islands: chemical and isotopic characterization
(2015-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policySeismic-volcanic unrest was detected between 2004 and 2005 in the central and northwest zones of Tenerife Island (Canary Islands, Spain). With the aim of strengthening the program of geochemical and seismic-volcanic ... -
Evaluation of two carbon sources for inducing denitrification: batch and column experiments
(Elsevier, 2015-08-21)
Article
Open AccessArtificial recharge improves several water quality parameters. Denitrification is a good example of water treatment process that could be achieved through artificial recharge. To improve the removal of nitrate and other ... -
The great Colorado flood of September 2013
(2015-09-01)
Article
Open AccessDuring the second week of September 2013, a seasonally uncharacteristic weather pattern stalled over the Rocky Mountain Front Range region of northern Colorado bringing with it copious amounts of moisture from the Gulf of ... -
Estimating natural recharge by means of chloride mass balance in a volcanic aquifer: northeastern Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain)
(2015-06)
Article
Open AccessThe chloride mass balance method was used to estimate the average diffuse groundwater recharge on northeastern Gran Canaria (Canary Islands), where the largest recharge to the volcanic island aquifer occurs. Rainwater was ... -
Comments on uncertainty in groundwater governance in the volcanic Canary islands, Spain
(2015-06)
Article
Open AccessThe uncertainty associated with natural magnitudes and processes is conspicuous in water resources and groundwater evaluation. This uncertainty has an essential component and a part that can be reduced to some extent by ... -
Field and laboratory analysis of the runout characteristics of hillslope debris flows in Switzerland
(2015-03)
Article
Open AccessHillslope debris flows are unconfined flows that originate by shallow failures in unconsolidated material at steep slopes. In spite of their significant hazard for persons and infrastructure in mountainous regions, research ... -
Environmental and economic assessment of a pilot stormwater infiltration system for flood prevention in Brazil
(2015-11)
Article
Open AccessGreen and grey stormwater management infrastructures, such as the filter, swale and infiltration trench (FST), can be used to prevent flooding events. The aim of this paper was to determine the environmental and economic ... -
Size distribution for potentially unstable rock masses and in situ rock blocks using LIDAR-generated digital elevation models
(2015-07-01)
Article
Open AccessIn this paper, two analytical procedures which are independent from the existence of empirical data are presented for the calculation of (1) the size distribution of potentially unstable rock masses that expresses the ... -
Large-scale rock slope failures in the eastern Pyrenees: identifying a sparse but significant population in paraglacial and parafluvial contexts
(2014-09)
Article
Open AccessThis first overview of large-scale rock slope failure (RSF) in the Pyrenees addresses the eastern third of the range. Around 30 principal RSFs >0.25 km2 and 20 lesser or uncertain cases have been identified from remote ... -
Improving the accuracy of risk prediction from particle-based breakthrough curves reconstructed with kernel density estimators
(2015-06)
Article
Open AccessWhile particle tracking techniques are often used in risk frameworks, the number of particles needed to properly derive risk metrics such as average concentration for a given exposure duration is often unknown. If too few ... -
Probabilistic human health risk assessment of degradation-related chemical mixtures in heterogeneous aquifers: risk statistics, hot spots, and preferential channels
(2015-06)
Article
Open AccessThe increasing presence of toxic chemicals released in the subsurface has led to a rapid growth of social concerns and the need to develop and employ models that can predict the impact of groundwater contamination on human ...
