Groundwater in the Nile Delta

Groundwater in the Nile Delta

This unique volume offers an up-to-date overview of all the main aspects of groundwater  and its fringes, as well as latest research findings. The themes covered include:

· Nile Delta aquifer formation and its characteristics

· The use of the groundwater  and its implications

· Sedimentology and hydrogeophysical characteristics

· Groundwater investigations and aquifer characterization using current direct resistivity and induced polarization

· Groundwater contamination and degradation
· Saltwater intrusion and its control

· Delineation of groundwater flow and seawater intrusion using various techniques, including one-dimensional subsurface temperature profiles, geoelectrical resistivity, and integrated subsurface thermal regime and hydrogeochemical data

· Modeling of groundwater and of saltwater intrusion in the Delta aquifer

· Excessive pumping and groundwater quality assessment for irrigation and drinking purposes
· Groundwater management for sustainability in the Nile Delta.

The volume appeals to postgraduate students, researchers, scientists, professionals, decision makers and planners.
