Groundwater quality development in area suffering from long term impact of acid atmospheric deposition - the role of forest cover in Czech Republic case study
Original language description
About 84% of the Czech Republic is covered by so called hardrocks, igneous, metamorphic and strongly cemented rock. Such kind of rock environment is widespread throughout the world, the total extension is estimated at about 20% of present land surface, i.e. approximately 30 millions km2 (Krásný 1999). From the hydrogeological point of view only near surface aquifer is important. Aquifer thickness is generally in the range of tens of meters and permeability decreases downwards. Nevertheless shallow hardrock aquifer is of major importance in generation of regional groundwater runoff and, consequently, groundwater resources development. Over the large areas hardrock aquifer is only source of drinking water. Problem is that shallow aquifer confined to crystalline rocks is very vulnerable to a decline in atmospheric precipitation and infiltration and exploitable yield should be very unstable.
