Negm A.M. Groundwater in the Nile Delta

Springer, 2019. — 780 p. — (The Handbook of Environmental Chemistry 73). — ISBN10: 3319942824.This unique volume offers an up-to-date overview of all the main aspects of groundwater in the Nile Delta and its fringes, as well as latest research findings. The themes covered include:
• Nile Delta aquifer formation and its characteristics
• The use of the groundwater in the Nile Delta and its implications
• Sedimentology and hydrogeophysical characteristics
• Groundwater investigations and aquifer characterization using current direct resistivity and induced polarization
• Groundwater contamination and degradation
• Saltwater intrusion and its control
• Delineation of groundwater flow and seawater intrusion using various techniques, including one-dimensional subsurface temperature profiles, geoelectrical resistivity, and integrated subsurface thermal regime and hydrogeochemical data
• Modeling of groundwater and of saltwater intrusion in the Nile Delta aquifer
• Excessive pumping and groundwater quality assessment for irrigation and drinking purposes
• Groundwater management for sustainability in the Nile Delta.
The volume appeals to postgraduate students, researchers, scientists, professionals, decision makers and planners.An Overview of Groundwater Resources in Nile Delta Aquifer
