Assessing residence times of hyporheic ground water in two alluvial flood plains of the Southern Alps using water temperature and tracers
Water temperature can be used as a tracer for the interaction between river water and groundwater, interpreting time shifts in temperature signals as retarded travel times. The water temperature fluctuates on different time scales, the most pronounced of which are the seasonal and diurnal ones. Whil...
