Deformation Stability and Failure Analysis of Composite Interface Accumulation Slope by LI Shuai

“…Distribution of groundwater and accumulated soil stress is an important factor for the deformation stability and failure mode of composite interface slope.Based on the typical geological section of Dongjiashan landslide,this paper generalizes a geomechanical model of composite interface slope,analyzes the development and evolution results of the equivalent plastic zone of the slope at different groundwater levels by finite element software,mainly explains the stress and deformation characteristics of the slope,slip zone and central soil in natural state,and reveals the deformation and failure mechanism of the composite interface slope.The numerical calculation results show that under natural and heavy rain conditions,the equivalent plastic zone of the slope first penetrates integrally and gradually develops towards the middle of the slope,and finally forms the secondary plastic penetrating surface in the upper middle part of the slope.The groundwater level reduces the stability of the composite base slope,and there is a higher possibility of secondary sliding on the upper part of composite interface slope during heavy rain.The shape of the horizontal displacement change curve of the slip zone and slope is similar to that of the composite interface,and the non-monotonic change potential slip surface affects the deformation distribution and failure mode of the slope at the geotechnical composite interface.…”

How does the water flow? And does data follow it? by Henrik Dissing

“…It also enables a broader use of data that was originally collected for specific purposes, such as mass transport calculations and crop cutting, and it opens up new solutions at the societal level. As groundwater rises and climate adaptation problems grow, it is essential to have access to integrated data on both watercourses and groundwater level measurements. …”

Estimation of water storage changes in a tropical lake-floodplain system through remote sensing by Thijs de Klein, Victor Bense, Syed Mustafa

“…A precipitation response time of approximately two months is observed, suggesting a considerable contribution of groundwater to the lake’s water balance. Minimum lake volumes found for the period 2014–2017 coincide with a prolonged period of below-average precipitation, indicating the effect of decreased groundwater recharge. …”

Borehole heat exchangers in coastal areas may reduce heatwave seagrass loss by Rotman Criollo, Víctor Vilarrasa, Alejandro Orfila, Núria Marbà, Angels Fernández-Mora

“…Borehole heat exchangers (BHE), a renewable heat source from the ground used for thermal regulation of infrastructures, could significantly reduce CO2 emissions. Yet, BHE perturbs groundwater temperature by heating and cooling the ground in summer and winter, respectively, which may alter the temperature of Sea Groundwater Discharges. …”

Geofluids Assessment of the Ayub and Shafa Hot Springs in Kopet-Dagh Zone (NE Iran): An Isotopic Geochemistry Approach by Hossein Mohammadzadeh, Majid Kazemi

“…This indicates that the heat source cannot be related to volcanic activities (with average δ18O value of about 5‰) and it is most probably associated with geothermal gradient with deep circulation of groundwater through faults. Based on Na-K geothermometers coupled with isotopic (18O and 2H) geochemistry the temperature of the AP geothermal reservoir was estimated to be in the range of 100–150°C with 3–5 and 4.2 kilometres’ depth, respectively. …”
