This site presents and discusses progress of the four GeoERA groundwater projects: HOVER, RESOURCE, TACTIC and VOGERA and the common GeoERA Information Platform (EGDI), providing data, information and decision-support tools for the long-term protection, sustainable management and improvement of groundwater resources across Europe, within the framework of societal challenges and EU policies.
Tomorrow at 9-13.00 CET is the concluding conference of the GeoERA program – Don’t forget to register and get your “seat” here: https://geoeraevent2022.eu/free-event-booking/
The 14 GeoERA projects on groundwater, geoenergy and raw materials and their common information platform will be presented and discussed ….

Contribute with your views trough polling and audience participation – the four GeoERA groundwater projects HOVER, RESOURCE, TACTIC and VOGERA are presented and discussed in the GeoERA groundwater webinar on Friday 13.11.2020, 10-12.00 CET. Please join us and take part in the polling on and discussion of the current most important groundwater research challenges in Europe and globally. If you want you can prepare yourself by reading about the four groundwater projects and the projects of the other GeoERA themes here: https://geoera.eu/projects/
Lead by Deltares (Netherlands), TACTIC have now produced standard #climatechange scenarios for all 41 pilot areas across Europe from Ireland to Ukraine and from Malta to Finland. The standard TACTIC #scenarios are produced to enable a harmonized comparison of impacts on #groundwater resources across Europe as a result of climate change. The standard climate change scenarios will be applied in a variety of tools within TACTIC from integrated #hydrological models to #time-series analysis but are also available for use outside TACTIC. Read more and get access to the scenarios via the TACTIC website: https://geoera.eu/projects/tactic9/
Groundwater age and travel time distributions have many applications – below you can find a link to a research paper where you can read about investigations of a pesticide polluted drinking water well and the history and fate of the two pesticides found in the well. The work is closely related to especially the work of task 6.4 in the HOVER project, which investigates groundwater age and travel time distributions in water supply wells with long screens and the application of these in groundwater management and protection.

How old is our groundwater and how well is this precious resource protected towards pollution from the surface or from subsurface activities?
Researchers from the Netherlands and Germany currently collaborates on the investigation of Dutch groundwater resources
