Groundwater Resources Assessment, Monitoring and Protection
The thematic area deals with the assessment, monitoring and protection of groundwater resources hosted in porous, fractured and karst aquifers. It involves field recognition, mapping, remote sensing, in-situ monitoring, site investigation (geognostic and geophysical), pumping and tracer tests, hydrochemical and water isotopes characterization, GIS and numerical modeling, and optimization of groundwater management and protection measures.
