Environmental Earth Sciences is an international multidisciplinary journal concerned with innovative approaches and significant aspects of interaction between humans, natural resources or unique geographic zones, with emphasis on the solid earth. In pursuit of these topics, the geoscientific community is invited to contribute their knowledge and experience. Major disciplines include: hydrogeology, hydrochemistry, geochemistry, geophysics, engineering geology, natural resources management, environmental geography and soil science.

The coupled influence of seawater density and groundwater level variation plays an import role in seawater intrusion in confined coastal aquifers. In this study, the effects of seawater density variations along with changing hydraulic gradients were investigated by conducting laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. Parameters of salinty and density in the experiments are based on the references...

Arsenic is one of the most important toxic metalloids that can be mainly found in gold mining areas. As a significant zone in the Takab mining area, Zarshuran gold mine has a drastic effect on the environment because of arsenic contamination. This study evaluated the arsenic concentrations in different parts of a water flow path from the mine to the residential area. Different factors that have a...

Groundwater is the major water source in arid and semi-arid regions and its availability under future climatic scenarios is uncertain. In this context, the knowledge of the likely changes in aquifer recharge is very important for sustainable management of groundwater resources in these environments. This work assesses the effect of future potential changes in the climate variables on aquifer recharge...
