Consequently, coastal aquifers are potentially vulnerable to salinization. Bedrock aquifers, in particular, present challenges for groundwater management due to heterogeneities imparted by fractures, ...

Aquifers of sand and gravel allow water to pass through quickly and can be easily contaminated by polluted recharge water. In fractured bedrock, or karst areas, water moves between cracks and channels ...

the bedrock under the landfill is a last line of defense to stop any contaminated water from seeping into aquifer systems far below. In the ROD, the DOE stated that the fractures to the bedrock ...

and focus on both alluvial aquifers and bedrock aquifers. Similar approaches were used to assess climate change impacts in each aquifer system, although over the course of these studies we refined our ...
