Hydrology and Hydrogeochemistry of the South Fork, Wright Valley, Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica
Complex, dynamic hydrogeochemical systems--involving the transport and fractionation of water and solutes--occur in the rocks, surficial materials, and surface waters of the south fork of Wright Valley, situated in the ice-free region of Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. All of these systems have …

The hydrogeochemistry of pond and rice field recharge : implications for the arsenic contaminated aquifers in Bangladesh
The shallow aquifers in Bangladesh, which provide drinking water for millions and irrigation water for innumerable rice fields, are severely contaminated with geogenic arsenic. Water mass balance calculations show that groundwater-irrigated rice fields and man-made ponds are the primary sources of …

Hydrogeochemical exploration at Tsumeb
… makes exploration for minerals very difficult. Hydrogeochemistry was considered as a possible answer to the problem of prospecting in this region but a major obstacle was the lack of an undisturbed site for orientation studies. The Tsumeb mine was therefore used as a "surrogate" orientation …
