Full textThe aim of the research was to characterize microbial communities in aquifers with different hydrochemical properties (oligomineral cold waters; saline and hypersaline cold waters; saline hot waters) and different factors affecting the hydrogeological behaviour of the aquifer systems. The goal of the work was to experimentally verify if microbial communitites can be used as new effective natural tracers to analyze hydrogeological phenomena within different aquifer systems, characterized by different degrees of complexity. Two fingerprinting techniques have been used: DGGE and T-RFLP. DGGE is based on the separation of PCR amplicons of the same size but with different sequences. T-RFLP is based on the digestion with restriction endonucleases of PCR products: one or both the primers used in the PCR reaction are labeled with a fluorescent dye which allow to detect, through capillary electrophoresis, only the presence of the terminal restriction fragment. The main results obtained can be summerized as follows. In the aquatic environments analyzed, “site-specific” microbial communities were detected, instead of “system-specific” communities. The character “site-specific” of these communities is strongly influenced even by environmental factors little representative in the general context of the aquifers examined. Differently from the existing knowledge, this leads to the possible absence of single autochtonous microbial communities also in natural systems that can be considered as an “unicum” from a hydrogeological point of view. From a methodological point of view, the fragmentation and diversification of microbial communities in an aquatic system can be determined and characterized especially sampling at different points inside the system itself and not solely at the principal collector (for example, a spring) of the groundwater system.

Full textThe main aim of the research was to monitor the concentrations of nitrates, the herbicide terbuthylazine and its products of the environmental degradation, desethyl-terbuthylazine, in shallow groundwater, according to the normal agricultural practices in different Italian areas representative of maize crop. The first step was to identify the monitoring sites, therefore it was necessary to create a general procedure to individuate maize representative areas in Italy. Inside these area 11 monitoring sites were selected: 4 in Lombardy, 2 in Emilia Romagna, 2 in Veneto, 2 in Piedmont and one in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. In April 2005 the monitoring started. Groundwater samplings were carried out every two months. The IDPR index, a tool for national and regional vulnerability mapping, was applied. The index reflects the influence of the subsurface geological formations on the surface water runoff or infiltration. The distribution probability analysis of the results showed that there was a very low probability of exceeding the limit fixed by law, this probability was higher for the metabolite. The greater probability of exceed the 0.1 μg/L occurred in two sites, both irrigated with basin irrigation system. Nitrate concentrations resulted to be very low in shallow groundwater. Moreover, it was used a mathematical model which calculate the leaching of pesticides (MACRO 5.1).

Full textIl presente lavoro affronta lo studio di due problematiche idrogeologiche complesse e molto diverse tra loro, mediante un approccio geofisico integrato con le indispensabili indagini geologiche e idrogeologiche: (1) caratterizzazione delle risorse sotterranee solforose in ambiente montano al fine di localizzare una o più aree adatte alla perforazione e quindi all’estrazione di acque solforose; (2) caratterizzazione idrogeofisica di un area golenale soggetta a forti eterogeneità locali che possono influenzare il flusso, alterando consistentemente la conduttività idraulica. I risultati delle indagini geofisiche costituiscono nei casi descritti un indispensabile supporto funzionale per comprendere approfonditamente le aree studiate con particolare riguardo alla ricostruzione dei sistemi acquiferi, circuiti idrogeologici e disponibilità di risorse idriche e termali al fine di realizzare un'azione progettuale ingegneristica mirata e consistente.

Full textIn the municipality of Ravenna, more than 6800 hectares of farmland are at a risk for soil salinization, because of the high groundwater salinity in the coastal aquifer, which is widespread with the exception of some ephemeral freshwater lenses below the dune belts and in areas far from the land reclamation pumping stations. The area is affected by subsidence both natural due to compaction of alluvial sediments and anthropogenic caused by gas and groundwater over-exploitation. As a result, most of this territory is below mean sea level and agriculture as well as any other human activity is possible thanks to a dense network of drainage channels and land reclamation pumping stations. Agricultural activities in the area are an important asset for the local economy but they are challenged by scarce freshwater resources, water logging, and soil salinization. Sustainable agriculture practices need to address irrigation requirements, land drainage, and soil salinization control. With the aim to understand the interaction between irrigation channel and groundwater, a small agricultural area (12 hectares), was monitored during 2011 by using hydrological, geochemical and geophysical methods. The results of this work shows a widespread salinization of the phreatic aquifer but also the presence of a 4-meters-thick freshwater lens, at 400 meters from the shore line, with chemical characteristics (hydrofacies) typical of river water and that increases size in summer period. This fresh water lens has formed due to seepage from an irrigation channel into the aquifer. The contribution of irrigation water sprayed on top of the land to freshwater aquifer recharge is practically zero. By redesigning the network of irrigation channels to store excess river and irrigation water, the amount of freshwater infiltration into the aquifer could be increased and groundwater and soil salinization prevented.

Full textDue to the constantly growing interest toward environment protection, the amount of available data concerning environmental monitoring is increasing. As the size and complexity of environmental datasets continue to grow, there is a wide variety of possibility for implementation of data science in the environmental sciences field. The focus of the present PhD work is the resolution different hydrogeological issues by means of data science. More specifically, the present PhD project aims at identifying and applying data-driven techniques suitable for hydrogeological datasets, based on the structure of the problem and the available data and on site-specific conditions. In the scope of this PhD work two main hydrological problems were addressed parallelly, concerning the two main aspects of groundwater resource management: a) groundwater quality and b) groundwater quantity. Each task was tackled in two successive phases. The first phase consisted in an exploratory analysis of the available data, aimed at reaching a better understanding of the system, the problem and the available information. The second phase involved the application of specific data driven techniques to investigate their effectiveness in the hydrogeological field. The groundwater quality data analysis involves the application of multivariate techniques, normally used for the source apportionment, to a dataset concerning chemical data of surface water and groundwater aiming at determining their effectiveness in identifying the phenomena that contribute to the concentration of several compounds in a sample. In this task Factor Analysis, Cluster Analysis and Positive Matrix Factorization were implemented. As regards the groundwater quantity, the analysis of groundwater level time series uses models able to reconstruct historical data and applicable to forecast scenarios; in this task autocorrelation, partial autocorrelation and impulse response were used and linear and nonlinear neural networks models

Full textUrban areas rely on subsurface resources to produce drinking water and extract low enthalpy geothermal energy. However, atmospheric and subsurface environment modifications by climate change and/or human activities affect the physical-chemical conditions such as the groundwater thermal regime. The subsurface urban heat island (SUHI) effect was documented in several cities worldwide with 2 to 8°C warmer temperatures than in suburban areas and warming trends were linked to global warming and urbanization. Highly developed cities are more impacted due to the superimposition of anthropogenic heat sources (e.g. building basements, asphalted surfaces, tunnels, geothermal installations), and positive (e.g. heating potential) and negative (e.g. thermal pollution) implications for groundwater uses exist. Thus, monitoring and modeling tools are mandatory to disentangle the complex superimposition of positive/negative heat flows from natural/anthropogenic sources and assess the future evolution. Moreover, EU objectives on climate change mitigation are focused on the development of renewable energies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Low enthalpy geothermal energy is considered a valid alternative to common heating/cooling techniques as it is available almost everywhere and has a low carbon footprint, especially where thermal energy is supplied by fossil fuels. The Milan city area (MCA) is one of the most densely populated and industrialized regions in Europe and, consequently, has a very high thermal power demand. Moreover, many activities related to urbanization contribute to modify the groundwater environment but their effects on the subsurface thermal status have never been assessed. In the first part of this study, the low enthalpy geothermal potential of the shallow aquifers was assessed at regional scale. Advantageous hydrogeological characteristics (e.g. highly conductive aquifers) were mapped and different analytical solutions used to estimate the thermal potential of ground coupled (GCHP) and groundwater (GWHP) heat pumps. The potential of GCHP was estimated considering subsurface hydraulic/thermal parameters and temperature, climatic data and borehole characteristics. The potential of GWHP was estimated considering the water drawdown and temperature drop allowed by regulation. The results were compared with heat demand rates on a municipal basis and the most profitable configuration was discussed. Successively, the extent and intensity of the SUHI in the MCA was assessed. Natural and anthropogenic controls on groundwater temperatures were revealed analyzing head and temperature records, and the occurrence of an up to 3° C intense SUHI was demonstrated. Vertical heat fluxes to the aquifer are strongly related to the groundwater depth and density of surface structures/infrastructures. This heat accumulation is reflected by a constant warming trend between +0.1 and +0.4 °C/y leading up to a +25 MJ/m2/y heat storage by densely distributed heat sources. Furthermore, the effects of urbanization, SUHI and physical-chemical conditions on the microbiological abundance were assessed by a flow cytometry analysis. Finally, a holistic city-scale fluid flow and heat transport FEM model was developed focusing on (I) the reconstruction of large-scale aquifer heterogeneities to consider the advective dominated heat transport, (II) the definition of the upper thermal boundary by a coupled analytical solution and (III) the integration of natural and human-related fluid/heat sources as transient boundary conditions. A fluid/heat budget analysis revealed the heat flow from buildings, infrastructures and tunnels contributes to 85% of the net annual heat accumulation (1.4 PJ/y). The thermal potential was evaluated numerically, and it was demonstrated that future climate change and city expansion could lead to the highest subsurface warming compared to shallow geothermic development which, for this reason, should be highly supported.

Full textMany anthropic activities give rise to environmental problems for which it is necessary to find solutions. The presence of undesirable substances in water, indeed, can pose a risk to the health and hygiene of both men and animals. It is, therefore, essential to find methods in order to avoid pollutants from these matrices, so as to make them compatible with the maintenance of healthy environmental conditions. This thesis aims to assessing the groundwater quality of an area in which the quality of water was never studied, particularly investigating the occurrence of pesticides and nitrate in order to understand the grant of viticulture on water pollution. This study derives from the necessity to improve the water governance and to implement the best management practices and mitigation measures to prevent groundwater and environmental pollution. The results of monitoring studies showed a contamination of groundwater by pesticides and nitrate and thus an evaluation of PPPs and nitrates source contamination was carried out through isotopic studies of N and O of NO3- , and through hydrologic analysis by use of the model CRITERIA 3D. As one of the main conclusions of the work, the occurrence of PPPs in groundwater in areas with intensive viticultural activities cannot be related just to chemical environmental fate properties or pedoclimatic conditions, but also to end-user behavior. In fact, the contamination source evaluated, resulted to be due to both diffuse and point-source contamination. For what concerns the influence of nitrogen-based fertilization on nitrate occurrence in groundwater, the results showed a high vulnerability of the aquifer to external changes. Isotopic investigations showed that most of the NO3- detected in the groundwater, derived from the use of inorganic nitrogen fertilizers, in agreement with the land use and viticulture practices declared by the farmers. The most important result of the study, however, was that at the end of the overall process, the multi-actor approach and engagement strategy adopted were successful in improving attitudes to more sustainable practices.

Full textThis work applies deterministic and probabilistic methodology to the analysis of health risk of a contaminated site. The risks we have calculated are both cancerogenous and no-cancerogenous. The area we studied was formerly used for chemical industry, and is called “Pertusola South Crotone”. Due to its high concentrations of heavy metals it has been declared “area of national interest”. The receptors we have considered are adults, children and workers. As point where the target is exposed to the contamination we have taken the coast line. The contaminants that were considered are As, Cd y Zn. A mathematical model is utilized for the simulation of destination and transportation of contaminants from the point of origin of the contamination to that of exposition. The methodology of risk analysis is applied in direct and inverse way. The direct calculation allows the estimate of health risk to which the target is exposed in presence of a strong contamination. The inverse calculation makes possible to determine the maximum acceptable contamination of the target, compatible with an acceptable level of risk. The deterministic methodology has been used to calculate the RME and MLE values. The probabilistic one (based on Monte Carlo method) has been used to calculate the estimated average value, UCL 95%, UCL 99%. If the exposition rate RME is considered and deterministic and probabilistic results are compared, one obtains an overestimate of the risk in the case of the deterministic values. The probabilistic calculation allows to fulfil less conservative remediation objectives. This leads to a lower cost of the remediation work. From the uncertainty and sensitivity analysis one finds that toxicological factors contribute to the risk equation more than hydrogeological factors.
