Improving Adoption of Aquifer Storage and Recovery in Texas
Smith, W. Benjamin (2018). Improving Adoption of Aquifer Storage and Recovery in Texas. Doctoral Dissertation, Texas A & M University: College Station, TX. http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/173533 The first study identifies hydrogeologically feasible locations for ASR across the Gulf Coast and Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer systems in Texas, using transmissivity, hydraulic gradient, well density, depth to aquifer, and depth to […]
Study of Multi-Scale Plant-Groundwater Interactions
Gou, Si (2014). Study of Multi-Scale Plant-Groundwater Interactions. Doctoral dissertation, Texas A&M University. http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/153271 Groundwater serves as one of the main and reliable water sources for human-being and groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs). GDEs are threatened by insufficient groundwater supply, due to increasing groundwater extraction and climate change. Sustainable groundwater management should address the water needs […]
Measuring and modeling interactions between groundwater, soil moisture, and plant transpiration in natural and agricultural ecosystems

University of California at Berkeley. https://nature.berkeley.edu/biometlab/pdf/miller_2009_dissertation.pdf Plant transpiration serves a critical function in the terrestrial hydrologic cycle, acting as the primary link between the atmosphere and subsurface stores of water. To properly manage our […]
