Hydrodynamic and Hydro-geochemical Processes in the Catchment Area of Lake Retba and Their Implications in Relationship between Groundwater, Lake and Ocean
Mansour GUEYE, Abdoul Aziz GNING, Fatou NGOM DIOP, Raymond MALOU
American Journal of Water Resources. 2016 4 (4). doi: 10.12691/ajwr-4-4-3
Keywords: lake retba, ponds, water chemistry, fluctuation, water table, mineralization, seawater intrusion, chemical facies, altimetry
Context: The drought that began in the Sahel in the late 70s has led to a drying up of most surface water bodies and a decrease of ground water level. In the north coast of Cap-Verde, the Retba lake is one of the fe...

Darcy’s Law Equation with Application to Underground Seepage in Earth Dams in Calculation of the Amount of Seepage
Koros Kiplangat Vincent, Mutua Nicholas Muthama, Sakayo Nicodemus Muoki
American Journal of Applied Mathematics and Statistics. 2014 2 (3). doi: 10.12691/ajams-2-3-8
Keywords: seepage, discharge rate, Darcy’s law, porosity
Context: ... resource. One of the ways of conservation is by building earth dams. However if they are not well managed these dams may end up drying up due to underground seepage leading to failure of the dam. In this paper we are concerned with how to calculate the discharge rate t...
