Résumé : | Groundwater is an essential natural resource. It is the main source of water supply for domectic consumption, agriculture, and industrial development in many parts of the world. Besides that it is of vital importance for securing biodiversity of ecosystems. Yet, the resource is threatened by excessive over-exploitation and by contamination mainly resulting from industrial activities and agricultural practices. Increasing demands due to an increase in population and climate chnage further exacerbate the problem, and hence further development of groundwater resources and efficient protection against over-use and contamination remains a practical concern for water resources managers. In order to properly manage this vital resource, understanding its behaviour when subjected to external stresses is of significant importance. |
