Book Land Subsidence in the United States

Download or read book Land Subsidence in the United States written by Devin L. Galloway and published by Geological Survey (USGS). This book was released on 1999 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Land subsidence (LS) is a gradual settling or sudden sinking of the Earth's surface owing to subsurface movement of earth materials. More than 80% of the identified LS in the nation is due to our exploitation of underground water (UW). This report illustrates the 3 basic mechanisms by which human influence on UW causes land subsidence: compaction of aquifer systems, dewatering of organic soils, and mass wasting through dissolution and collapse of susceptible earth materials. Also examines the role that water-management groups play in mitigating subsidence damages. Color and B&W photos, maps, and drawings.

Book Investigation of Land Subsidence in the Houston Galveston Region of Texas by Using the Global Positioning System and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar  1993 2000

Download or read book Investigation of Land Subsidence in the Houston Galveston Region of Texas by Using the Global Positioning System and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar 1993 2000 written by Gerald W. Bawden and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Houston-Galveston region—comprising Harris and Galveston Counties and adjacent parts of Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Grimes, Liberty, Montgomery, San Jacinto, Walker, and Waller Counties (fig. 1)—is one of the largest areas of subsidence in the United States (Galloway and others, 1999). Most of the subsidence in the Houston-Galveston region (which includes the greater Houston metropolitan area) has occurred as a direct result of groundwater withdrawals for municipal supply, industrial use, and irrigation that depressured and dewatered the major aquifers in the area, thereby causing compaction of the clay layers of the aquifer sediments (Kasmarek and others, 2010; Johnson and others, 2011). Groundwater has historically been the principal source of water for municipal, industrial, and agricultural uses, and groundwater use in the Houston-Galveston region had increased rapidly for many decades to meet the water needs of the rapidly growing population (Seifert and Drabek, 2006). Since the 1990s, surface water has been increasingly used to meet these water needs and reduce reliance on groundwater resources in the Houston-Galveston region (Kasmarek and Robinson, 2004).
