Sustainable Groundwater Management: Vision 2050

Sustainable Groundwater Management: Vision 2050

Bangladesh heavily depends on groundwater for irrigation, drinking water, and industrial uses. However, overextraction, pollution, and poor governance have put this vital resource at risk. To protect water security for future generations, sustainable groundwater...
Uses of Groundwater in Bangladesh

Uses of Groundwater in Bangladesh

Over the last six decades, groundwater has served as the primary source for domestic, irrigation, and industrial uses in Bangladesh because of its year-round availability and generally good quality. Groundwater abstraction increased significantly, primarily driven by...
Application of Seismic Refraction Measurements in Groundwater

Application of Seismic Refraction Measurements in Groundwater

Application of Seismic Refraction Measurements in Groundwater: Mapping of Buried Channels using Seismic Refraction: The most common use of the seismic method in hydrogeology is the determination of the thickness of sediments overlying non-water-bearing consolidated...
Water Waves: Motion, Types, and Surf Zone Dynamics

Water Waves: Motion, Types, and Surf Zone Dynamics

 The energy that moves sand along a beach comes from the wind-driven water waves that break upon the shore. As wind blows over the surface of an ocean or a lake, some of the wind‘s energy is transferred to the water surface, forming the waves that move through the...
Coastline Formation: How Tectonics, Waves & Tides Shape Shorelines

Coastline Formation: How Tectonics, Waves & Tides Shape Shorelines

Tectonic Settings and Their Role in the Coastline Formation:  Coastline Formation is determined by a variety of factors, including tectonic setting, the materials present at the shore, and the energy with which water strikes the coast.  One factor that influences the...
